I am my mother's daughter, despite how awful people assume that to be.




The fates love testing me in ways I don't deserve. My mom wasn't the woman I thought she was, and now, I must pay for her past crimes. I find myself imprisoned in the palace of her rejected mates, now seeking restitution for the power they lost. My supposed father plans to use magic to rewrite my fate and ruin everything.




I'd rather destroy the world. My stars have aligned, and I'll fight until my last breath to keep my mates and unite the clans of the Dragon Lands.




I'll live up to my mom's infamous crimes to ensure it. If only doing so didn't mean losing everything and bowing to a beast far worse than me.




But I'll do whatever it takes.




My bond grows for two different bloodlines. It's something that should've never happened...according to the witches who control our species. And I finally figured out why.




Now, to find freedom, I must risk everything. I refuse to wear the chains binding my wild beast. I will not stand idly by and let my mates be taken from me.




I'll burn their world down. My dragon's heart will never be caged.
