“There are too many people out there. Let’s cut through the alleys,” Emma whispered, forcing herself to stay focused. “These side streets connect everywhere. We should be able to reach Lucien that way.”

The alleys were winding and inefficient, but compared to the suffocating main streets, they were their best option.

Drake glanced into the pitch–black corridor of narrow streets and nodded. “All right. We’ll take the alleys. Emma, I won’t let anything happen to you.”

Holding her securely in his arms, he stepped into the darkness.

He moved as fast as he could—but the maze–like layout slowed him down. Even after their lightcores flickered back to life and the trackers reconnected, unfamiliar terrain almost led him astray.

“Mm… it’s so hot…”

Emma’s consciousness was slipping.

Her hands trembled as she tugged at her collar, pale skin flushed a deep, feverish pink.

“Drake…”

Her palm, burning hot, pressed against his chest.

The sudden heat against his skin made him falter mid–stride.

“Emma, hold on. We’re almost there. The tracker’s active again. They’re coming.”

But the heat radiating from her body only intensified. Panic crept into his chest.

Emma didn’t want to endure it anymore.

It felt like she was burning from the inside out. Her bones ached with heat. Every nerve screamed.

Suddenly, something warm trickled from her nose.

“Drake… I think I’m bleeding. It hurts. I feel like I’m going to burn alive…”

Her body trembled uncontrollably in his arms.

When Drake looked down and saw the blood streaking her face, he stopped dead in his tracks.

Too late.

She couldn’t wait for Lucien.

Without hesitation, he kicked open the door of an abandoned building and carried her inside.

It was an old warehouse–cluttered, dusty–but he found the cleanest patch of floor he could and laid her down carefully.

Emma was barely conscious.

The moment he set her down, she clung to his neck.

“I don’t feel good… don’t go… help me…”

“Emma, stay awake.” He tried to pull away, his voice rough from restraint.

But she refused to release him.

Sensing him retreat, she wrapped around him like a vine, pressing her burning cheek to his neck.

Cool.

So cool.

Like ice.

“I need… ice…” she murmured desperately, tugging at his clothes. “I need something cold…”

Seeing her in such agony shattered what little resolve he had left.

He tore open his own shirt.

He had no intention of taking advantage of her, but he couldn’t watch her suffer like this either.

“Emma. Look at me.”

He cupped her face and pressed his lips to hers–not with hunger, but with grounding force.

“Don’t be afraid. I won’t let anything happen to you.”

Holding her close, he drew on his power and sliced open his chest.

A single drop of golden blood surfaced–radiant, immense, pulsing with overwhelming strength.

True Dragon Blood.

The moment it separated from his body, his power began to drain. His hair faded toward white.

But he did not hesitate.

He pressed the golden drop against Emma’s heart.

The instant it touched her skin, it transformed into a streak of golden light–a dragon–shaped current surging into her body.

Heat exploded outward.

The golden energy flooded her veins, colliding violently with the drug raging through her system.

“Ah-”

Emma cried out, body arching in pain.

Drake endured the backlash of losing his level, holding her tightly.

“Just a little longer… it’ll pass.”

Gradually, her body stilled.
