Dragon Damocles: A Fated Mates Dragon King Romance

By Sky Gold

Tell me who touched you, Xaya. I want to know whose head to bring you first.

He's a monster forged in the pits of hell.
He's also my fated mate, and the man I sent to a death gulag,
When I was tricked into giving false testimony.

Now, I live with a spectral leash, an emerald Damocles ghost-blade hovering over my stargem heart.
One step out of line, one act of disobedience to my cruel jailer, and the dagger falls,
banishing my soul to an eternal abyss.
I accept the torment.
I deserve it because I betrayed the only man I have ever loved.

I thought he was gone forever. I was wrong.

Lord Rhyce has escaped the inescapable.
The Shadow Dragon King has crawled back from the grave, and he's hunting me.
But the man who found me isn't the lover I remember.
He's hidden his identity, cloaked in shadows and a lethal new persona,
just to get close enough to see me suffer.

He should want my life.
He should seek revenge; instead, his fury has transformed into a terrifying, unconditional passion.

He doesn't want my apology.
He wants to burn the world that tried to keep us apart.
He wants my enemies' heads on a silver platter.
As for the "hex-leash" around my heart?
He's about to show my captors what happens when you touch a Dragon's Fated Mate.
