Once in a millennium, the Phoenix will rise. The earth, the shifters, even the planet will call to her, pleading for her help. When they do, she always answers their call. Each time, she will choose a young woman who is deserving of carrying her fire, someone who is loving and caring, but with an inner strength that is difficult to break. Emmi Johnson is a human orphan who was kidnapped by The Mean Ones, grotesque shifters who wanted to create an army to destroy the elemental dragons and other hybrids. The dragons saved her and the others who were being held hostage, but the damage was already done. The Mean Ones were injecting her with their Komodo dragon DNA to make her into a shifter. The pain was excruciating, but the headaches that began soon afterward were worse. Ajax is a human runaway that was captured and experimented on by The Chief and Oliver. They injected him with earth dragon and elf DNA, turning him into a dragon hybrid. When Emmi senses chaos around her, something inside of her begins tearing at her insides. The screeching in her head makes her head throb. Ajax is the only one who can calm the fury inside her. Emmi is terrified that something’s wrong with her. Doc Everett can’t figure out what she is. That is until one day when the danger becomes so great that the Phoenix rises, melding itself to Emmi in a dangerous display of fire that is stronger than any fire dragon’s. Can Ajax help Emmi to find herself? Can she accept that she is no longer human, having been chosen by the ancient Phoenix? And can she become one with her shifter spirit before the danger that threatens them all comes for them?

Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 21: Ajax
Well, I just got a first-hand look at when and how Phoenix and Emmi disconnect. I thought we were making good progress and I’m very thankful that I was with her when she smelled Kenzo. The students are frightened enough by her. I don’t want them to start ostracizing her more than they already do. And I'm not completely sure that she wouldn't have hurt Kenzo.“Breathe. There is no immediate danger, Phoenix.”“You don’t know that, Ajax,” she says, her higher pitched voice sounding agitated.“Do you think that Avani would quietly begin fighting if someone were here to take his son’s eggs? He would announce the attack, and the battle would be on,” I say, trying to calm her down. I can feel her agitation, see it in the flames in her eyes and around her body. It’s not engulfing her body like it does when we kiss, but it’s moving around, going out and popping up in new spots.“How did the wolves miss it? They should have smelled the scent that I did.”“Your sense of smell and sense of danger

I like the fire dragon hybrid. She’s powerful, as all fire dragons are, but she also has an air of authority to her. That’s the Lycan blood in her. But because she’s a dragon, she’s inherently kind and loving. It seems funny to say that a creature that can breathe fire that is hot enough to melt a person into nothing is kind and loving, but it’s true. It’s one of the reasons that I’m mated to dragons so often when I rise. She’ll be good for Emmi, I think. A good friend and ally, someone she can trust.“Ajax!” Kenna calls out and Emmi turns to smile at him. His answering smile is beautiful. I almost miss it because of the earth dragon behind him. I frown as he walks away. Something is off with that earth dragon. We met him before, Kenzo is his name. I want to see where he’s going, but Emmi is focused on Ajax.The moment Ajax takes us into his arms and his lips press against ours, I forget all about anything and everything else in this world. I let my love and passion for Ajax flow throu

“Are you sure about this Lilith?” I ask her again. What we’re doing is risky. Lilith’s magic is powerful, I don’t doubt that, but this could mean my death if we get caught.“I told you that if you aren’t comfortable doing this, that we’ll find a female and I’ll do it. The only reason I suggested him in the first place is because he seems to know everyone,” she says. “But there are females who also seem to know everyone. That fire dragon with the black stripes is a good example. If she didn’t spend so much time with that elf, I’d have suggested that we use her.”“He’s not just any elf, Lilith. He’s an Elf King. He’d notice the moment something was off with that dragon. I didn’t see a mark on his chest that he’d claimed her but you never know,” I say. I realized that the elf was related to the elf princess who helped release me from the laboratory then refused to help me get home.“They’re probably mates and he’s just waiting until he knows he can claim her,” she says.“Why wait? Then so

I quietly follow her while people nod at Tana and give me side glances.“Hmm, I think I understand why my daughter was getting aggravated. I’m getting annoyed at this group too. I’ll have Cedric talk to them," she says.When we get to the room, it’s like a huge closet with boys clothing on one side and girls clothing on the other.“Not all packs are wealthy enough to supply enough clothes for their wolves. When they come to school, we want them to feel like they’re equals. So, we collect clothing and periodically the packs will donate clothing,” she says, turning to look at me, her eyes going up and down my body.“We don’t have a lot of small sizes that aren’t in children’s clothing, but let’s see what we have. Do you have a preference? Dresses, pants, jeans, shorts?”I shake my head, no.“Whatever you have is fine,” I tell her.“Your eyes are a softer shade of blue than Cedric’s, but I think that this dress would go good with your hair and eyes. Why don’t you try this one on,” she say

“Do you have anything that you need to bring to our room?” Kenna asks me excitedly.“Uh, not really. Just a couple of outfits that Kaylani and Everett got me.”“Ohhh, we’ll go to the packhouse. They have clothes there. We’ll find some that fit you,” Kenna says, taking my hand and leading me away.“Breakfast at 7am, Kenna,” Ajax calls after her.I turn and look at him, but he just winks at me.“Did you heard that, Yhen?” Kenna yells at him.“I’ll see you in the morning, my mate,” he says, his voice as regal as his stance.“Hey, is what he found bad?” I ask her.“No, it’s interesting,” she says, looking at me. “I’ll tell you tonight, if you want to know. You may feel better hearing it if Ajax is with you, though.”Kenna confidently leads me to where her father has built a packhouse onto the Academy’s lands. I’ve only ever seen this place from afar, but I have a weird sense of déjà vu when we walk up.‘I was here with Ajax a couple of days ago,’ Phoenix’s voice floats into my mind. ‘You w

I lead Emmi to the hospital where I’m sure my father and Kaylani are. My father has been running tests on Dion and Sena since the attack. I’m sure they struggle with that. Unlike the rest of us who had others to comfort us, no one wanted anything to do with them, not trusting them after they attacked us with The Mean Ones.Emmi’s idea of letting Phoenix tell us if they’re lying is genius. Phoenix does seem to have an understanding of things that the rest of us do not. I don’t know if it’s because she’s a phoenix and is, therefore, more attuned to the world, or if it’s because she’s lived so many lives, but she does feel and know things that the rest of us don’t.Once we’re inside, I follow my nose to where my father and Kaylani are talking to Dion and Sena. They both have earth dragon and elf, like me. So, both of them have access to the earth element. They’re both teenagers which, I’m sure, is why Kaylani wanted to help them. Well, that and we know how The Mean Ones did hurt others. B

All that talk of mating has me very embarrassed. I mean, I understand the concept of how babies are made, but this is different. The feeling that I got from Phoenix was passionate coupling that will feel better than anything I’ve ever felt before.I did catch her feelings of her time with her previous mates as she was talking to Ajax though, which has me confused.‘How does that work? You had other mates, but now he’s your mate?’ I ask her.‘Every time I rise, I have a new mate, a new bond. My previous mates all died long ago and while I remember them, when I die, the bond between us breaks. I remember the love that I felt for them, but even if they were alive, I wouldn’t feel it for them now. In this time, in this place, Ajax is my mate. Our mate.’How does she not feel the jealousy that I feel?‘Because I accept that we are one, Emmi. Once you do, you’ll see how easy it is for our emotions and our minds to connect.’I think about that and how her fire didn’t burn me, but it still mak

The moment the words came out of my mouth, I knew it was the wrong thing to say. Phoenix already told me that Emmi is afraid of her fire, and yet, I was so mesmerized once again by seeing my body engulfed in flames that it came out of my mouth before my brain could stop me.As soon as she opened her eyes, they went wide as saucers, the scent of her fear spiked all around me, and she began screaming as if she really was burning alive.“Emmi! Emmi!” I say, shaking her, trying to help her focus. When that doesn’t work, I do what comes naturally. I kiss her again. She doesn’t respond right away, flailing as if she’s trying to get away from me, but I hold her steady, using my dragon’s deep, resonating rumble to help her focus.I hold her face with the hand that was previously holding her hand and when she begins responding, I deepen the kiss. I can tell the difference between their kisses. Phoenix’s kiss is more confident, more experienced. Emmi’s is tentative, unsure, but still willing. So

I’m nervous about Ajax helping me with the Phoenix. While I’m glad that he seems willing to work with me, I wonder if his pull to her is stronger than his feelings for me.‘He didn’t have sex with me because he wanted you to be forward and agree as well,’ a voice says in my head. I’m not completely sure if it’s the Phoenix or my subconscious reminding me of that little detail.Ajax is still carrying me as we walk away from the old medical center. I guess we can now start calling it a dragon hatching ground since that’s what it will become. I can still hear the grunts, moans, and screeches from Eliane as she lays her eggs along with Ancalagon’s hissing, his wings flapping in agitation.Ajax sets me down near where the area where the dragons shift and use as their takeoff and landing spot.“Give me a minute,” he says, smiling before quickly pressing a kiss to my lips and jogging away to shift.When he shifts, he turns and looks at me, lowering his wing for me. Instead of walking up his w

Prologue: Phoenix
***This is Book Six of the Elemental Dragon series. References will be made to events that happened in previous books without being fully explained here. While this book can be read as a standalone, it is recommended that you read the series, starting with The Arena.***Every time I’m called to rise, I choose a human who is worthy. One whose heart is pure. One who is kind and loving. One who values the life of others and is willing to give their lives to protect those around them. It has to be a human with these attributes because, while I always rise again, my humans do not.Over time, I’ve realized that when I’m called, there is always a human who stands out to me, one who calls to me in some way or another. This time, when I felt the call to rise, it was Emmi who called to me.She was an orphan, someone who never had a family, but who always stood up for the underdog. She was the one who would walk through the forest and help the creatures who were injured or trapped. They responde...
