Asher rules as Dragon King under a curse that gives him one cruel route to staying alive: he has to unite with the mate destiny chose for him. The problem is that mate is Alina, a human girl who was never given a choice in any of it. Her own stepmother sold her out, delivering her to the Dragon Clan as a sacrifice, and from there she is dragged to Dragonstone and married off to the very creature legend says should be her end. The bond between them comes with a fatal clause. Dragons and humans were never built to come together, and if Asher ever claims Alina fully, the curse lifts only as she is consumed by his fire and burns alive. What was supposed to be a cold transaction starts to crack as the two are forced to live with each other, and the danger she was warned about becomes someone she can't bring herself to despise. Caught between escaping with her life and surrendering to a pull she doesn't understand, Alina has impossible choices ahead, and Asher has to decide whether his survival is worth the cost of hers.
