The Bond That Burns

The tension between the characters was already high, but adding dragons into the mix made every encounter feel even more charged. How did others interpret the balance between their rivalry and attraction?

The world-building felt so immersive and detailed, especially around the dragons. I wonder if this was inspired by a particular myth or personal fascination with dragon stories.

The development felt deliberate, but I’m curious if that was a conscious choice to build tension or if it evolved naturally during writing.
