Chosen By The Fire Dragon Guard — Aria Winter; Jade Waltz

To celebrate the peace among the Clans, each territory will host their annual Harvest Games. The winner will earn a place of honor among their people-chosen to serve on one of the Drakarian deep space ships.Rakan is a Guard of the Fire Clan. He's had his eye on me ever since his people rescued mine from the desert. The problem is we're so different. He's a warrior and I'm a teacher. The glowing fate mark hasn't appeared on his chest, and it makes me worried we might not be a good match. When I find out he's competing in the game for a chance to serve on a deep space ship, I don't want him to go. The more time we spend together, I find myself drawn to him and I can't bear the thought of him leaving. Now I have to make a decision: Do I ask him to give up his dream and stay with me? Or do I simply stand by and let him go?
