Ashes of Orun, Azayael Grant

Description

Magic has a price. Power demands blood. And prophecy always collects.

At Orun Institute, fire isn’t a metaphor — it’s alive. It’s the pulse of the Houses, the source of power bound by blood, pain, and promise.

Zariah Thorne was never supposed to survive her first trial. Cairo Vale was never supposed to save her. But when a failed ritual brands them both with the same ancient prophecy, their fates are bound together — and something buried deep beneath Orun begins to stir.

As rebellion brews under marble halls and forbidden rituals blur the line between devotion and domination, Zariah and Cairo must decide what to sacrifice first: their pride, their power, or each other. Because at Orun, every flame has a cost — and no one walks away unburned.

Richly atmospheric and darkly romantic, Ashes of Orun launches the Immortal Blaze Series — a searing fantasy debut filled with divine magic, secret Houses, and a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers story that crackles with heat.
