Novel: Heat of the Everflame by Penn Cole
Rymari was pure white from tongue to tail. Out of the nine Gryverns (a creature that has the head of a dragon, body of a lion and wings as eagles), she was the eldest and was loyal to the youngest Kindred, Montios. Gryverns are immortal and it takes a lot to be able to kill them but during the Blood War, Rymari died from wounds she couldn’t recover from.
For centuries, all that was left of her was her lavender dragonfyre (the fire she breathed) stored magically in a tube and her final resting site. In three days, both are activated because a particular young girl comes in contact with them. Who is this girl and why does Rymari return from the dead to keep her safe?

Novel: Heat of the Everflame by Penn Cole
Diem goes to warn Henri of what she’s about to do. She feels she owes it to him because of their history. But whatever regard she has for him isn’t reciprocated as he treats her coldly despite being with another woman without first breaking it off with her.
He also outright lied to her about her missing mother’s whereabouts, choosing other priorities above her. Once her message is out, Diem leaves to confront the villagers who’ve been talking bad about her. She also comes face to face with the bloodthirsty soldiers who want to arrest her.
It’s a rollercoaster day for our girl.

“I used to play a game where I would change the topic to see how long it took before my brother brought you back up. It never took more than three sentences. He had it bad.” Lily tells Diem.
Luther also keyed the blood lock of his rooms to open to only himself and Diem. That’s a big red flag to her that he suspected he might not return alive from rescuing her.
Diem doesn’t know what breaks her heart more: the fact Luther was suffering alone in silence or the fact he was only truly happy for one night or the fact that this devoted, sacrificial man is doomed to death.
Grab your tissues because this stretch of chapters is full of high intensity action. Everybody in our friendship crew almost dies.

As Queen, Diem is the most powerful magic user of Lumnos— Realm of Light and Shadow. Unlike the rest of the Descended in Lumnos, she can also access her full magic on other realms because she’s a Crown.
However, something never heard of is happening to her. First, she burst into flames (and didn’t die) when she entered Ignios, Realm of Sand and Fire. Suddenly, she can use powers exclusive to Descended from Ignios.
Now, Diem crosses into Umbros, Realm of Mind and Secret, with her friends. Ever since they arrived, it’s so noisy but the rest of her friends say it’s not. She finds herself able to telepathically speak to people, see people’s memories, secrets and craft impenetrable mental shields.
Yet she absolutely refuses to intrude on the privacy of the man she loves— although her instincts are screaming at her to— and that might be her greatest mistake.

A man stabs Taran with a godstone spear. Not deep enough to kill; that would be too easy. This man wants Taran to suffer a slow, painful death from an injury he can never recover from.
Taran and two others came to save their queen, Diem, from the hands of these people. Through the entire rescue, Diem was all about, “Don’t let the hate be an endless cycle. They’re only acting because they’re angry. Don’t hurt them, let’s just get away from them.”
That they did but these hate-filled men didn’t let go. They quietly tracked Diem and her friends down several hours later with intent to destroy all. Worst of all, Diem and her friends are now completely at their mercy.

A gryvern— a ferocious rare creature that breathes fire and has almost impenetrable skin— is descending on the camp of the Guardians. Riding on the gryvern is one of the deadliest Descended men in the entire Emarion. Instead of fear and running for cover, there’s grim determination on the Guardians’ faces. This is why they’ve been holding the queen hostage and keeping her heavily drugged.
The guardians have gone through the trouble of obtaining centuries’ old weapons to kill the gryvern as it’s come to save its queen. They also have godstone that will kill the man slowly and painfully. No matter how much the queen begs, pleads or tries to negotiate, they don’t listen to her. They push her into the mud, crush her ribs, cut her skin open and bash her head. The worst part of everything? She’s never hurt them, doesn’t want to and has only worked to help them.

What if your greatest strength was also your biggest weakness? Lukas Blomqvist is an Olympic-level athlete… and an Olympic-level dumbass when it comes to dating.
His discipline is legendary:
✔️ No sugar for years (not even a birthday cupcake).
✔️ Ice baths daily (RIP his nipples).
✔️ Ate plain rice for two years (yes, on purpose).
But when he tries to "hack" love with the same extreme rules? Disaster.
After an amazing date, Lukas decides not to text the woman he’s obsessed with—just to "test his emotional control."
Her take? "He ghosted me."
His take? "This is a spiritual exercise."
Spoiler: She moves on. He spirals.
In This Episode, We Roast:
🔥 "The Monk Mode Delusion" – When "self-discipline" is just fear of feelings.
🔥 "The Iced-Out Heart" – Why treating love like a workout plan = dying alone.
🔥 "The Texting Standoff" – Congrats, you "won" the power struggle… and lost the girl.
Perfect for you if:
- You’ve ever overthought a text until the vibe died.
- Your ex called you "emotionally unavailable" (you took it as a compliment).
- You’ve said “I don’t chase, I attract” while secretly Googling "signs she’s over you."
Bottom line: Discipline is sexy… until you use it to avoid being human. Press play before your next "I’m not gonna double-text" lie to yourself.

Misery barely survived a brutal poisoning that knocked her out cold for 5 days. But the general consensus among the Weres was “she’s not the target.” That’s until she’s kidnapped and thrown in the same cell as Serena, her best friend.
The whole reason why Misery agreed to become a chess piece in her father’s political games was to find Serena who’d been missing for 3 months, 2 weeks and 4 days. Serena was keeping things from Misery but that’s because Misery is the sort of person who doesn’t know how to play political games. It’s ridiculous considering she’s been a pawn her entire life.

Lowe is simply being true to character. When they left the dinner table, they told everyone it’s because the only Vampyre in their midst— his wife, Misery— needs to feed. They’re here on a mission though and that’s just an excuse. But right at the moment they’re about to be caught, he makes her do it.
When Misery confides in her twin brother later about what she did, he’s shocked. “The Vampyres and Weres have been mortal enemies for centuries. How come he allowed that?” She’s warned that feeding makes the parties involved develop feelings. Now Lowe is acting drugged and won’t leave her side.

Roscoe was the alpha of the Weres. He was vile and high handed. “Do what I say or lose your life. Give me all the power.” That was his modus operandi.
He staunchly believed the Weres were a more advanced race than the humans and Vampyres, so he wanted nothing with them. Yet the most number of Roscoe’s people died by his hands than from defending their borders from other species. Lowe had to step in especially as his own family was affected.
Roscoe is deceased now but there’s his mate, some of his seconds and all the young people they’ve poisoned their minds against Lowe. They whisper he’s a traitor for seeking alliances with humans and marrying a Vampyre wife of all things!
