Bonded to the Dragon

The Story

Rejection follows Vera, a blacksmith’s daughter, as every dragon at the selection ceremony turns away from her. Then Nightflame, the untamed black dragon that has resisted taming for a century, chooses her. The bond instantly draws the attention of the Supreme Speaker, who secretly constructs a deadly trap. He is hunting the last flame-witch bloodline, and Vera is the sole surviving heir. Her trainer, Kael, shares the same dragon-bond mark and serves as the heir to the Purge Coven. He has protected her for a long time. Noble Loranna relentlessly pushes Vera to reveal her true identity. The Speaker manipulates both Parliament and the Purge Coven, spiking drinks, dispatching hitmen, and forging evidence to ensnare them both. Vera and Kael work together to uncover the entire truth.
