In his previous life, Kaelen was an ordinary man with a troubled past. Abandoned by his parents and shuffled between foster homes, he worked tirelessly to survive, graduating college and seeking a better life. But after a failed job interview, fate intervenes when a disaster strikes, and he dies while heroically saving others. Given a second chance by a god from another realm, Kaelen is reincarnated into a world of dragons and magic—on a mission to restore balance and peace to a kingdom on the brink of destruction.
Waking up in a new body, Kaelen finds himself once again abandoned—this time in the aftermath of a brutal attack on his village. Now driven by a deeper purpose and haunted by his past, he must embrace his destiny as the last heir of the Dragon's Bloodline. Will he rise to reclaim his rightful place and stop the forces of darkness, or will his will to survive be tested beyond its limits?

THE DRAGON’S BLOODLINE

The low, guttural rumble grew louder, resonating through the air and vibrating beneath their feet. Kaelen pressed a hand to the rocky wall of the ravine, feeling the tremors intensify. Dust and pebbles rained down, making Seraphina instinctively pull her hood tighter around her face.

"What now?" she hissed, her voice tense with frustration and fear.

Kaelen didn't answer. His eyes stayed fixed on the creature above, its glowing eyes narrowing as the sound seemed to unsettle even it. The beast shifted uneasily, claws scraping against the stone as it retreated slightly, its predatory focus momentarily disrupted.

"Whatever it is," Kaelen finally said, his voice low, "it's worse than that thing."

The ground beneath them gave a sudden violent lurch, and the wall behind Kaelen cracked, sending shards of rock tumbling around them. He grabbed Seraphina's arm and yanked her away just as a large boulder crashed where she had been crouched moments before.
