Smoke and Flames — Danielle Kazemi

A shift in power is occurring in both the dragon and knight world. All of the final plans have been made. The only thing left to do is act.

Annabel and Mark remain at the retreat but begin growing increasingly worried as Nuri and his knights follow them around. When the time comes to decide which side Mark's on, he finds the decision has already been made.

Sera and Jules head off to rescue Henry, determined to free him from Isaac and the others holding him hostage. She's determined not to lose her mate like her brother.

Crispin prepares a group of dragons to fight against the knight retreat. All knights are considered fair game â€" especially Mark.
