The black, bubbling liquid smelled like burnt hair as it wafted into my face and I fought the urge to gag.

We spent the last twenty-four hours after the council departed testing the potion alongside the dragon fire, and found that combining them did indeed work.

Two of the four plagued creatures the witches managed to capture and bring with them, finding them lurking around Lucy’s home again, had succumbed to the flames and died.

Craig had tested his blade on the other, and only one remained.

“Just do it,” Craig urged from behind me.

I swallowed hard. “Sorry, just accepting the fact that I could lose my fire completely in a few minutes. Or die.”

“Nothing is going to happen,” he said, but I heard the tinge of doubt in his words.

With Craig, Lucy, and Crane eagerly watching me, I held my nose and drank down the potion.

It burned all the way down my throat into my stomach, but I forced myself to keep it down, not opening my mouth until I knew it wasn’t going to come right back up.

My stomach gurgled at the intrusion, but then the heat spread throughout my body, seeping into every limb.

I gasped at the shock of it rushing through me before it shot back to my core and centered around the dragon, restless within me.

I drew my head back, my wings tucked in close at my sides, and my fire roiled in my chest, the flames growing and strengthening before I let it shoot from my mouth.

The flames engulfed the body of the undead creature, and it screamed in torment as the fire tore through its limbs and what remained of its skin.

In seconds, its high-pitched screeching died away, and it collapsed to the floor, its body burnt to a crisp on the stones.

Smoke billowed out of my nose as I leered to see the destruction I could now cause our enemy.

“Very nice,” Craig agreed, stepping over to check the deceased plagued. “All we need now is a way to get to Kate.”

“And that we have,” Lucy stated as I turned and saw the rest of the witches spilling into the room. “Forrest? It’ll be easier to get you through the portal if you’re not a dragon.”

I’d rather charge through the portal like this, ready to kill anything on my way to get to her, but she was right.

The portal would have to be much larger to accommodate my form. I
