He rejected her to save her life. Now, she's the only one who can save his kingdom. Elara Vance is a brilliant, fiercely independent architect fighting to rebuild her career after a devastating betrayal. When she lands the commission of a lifetime to design a flagship eco-tower for a reclusive billionaire, she expects a challenge. She doesn't expect him. The moment Elara meets CEO Kaelen Thorne, a shocking, primal connection ignites between them. But instead of claiming her, Kaelen publicly humiliates and rejects her, stripping her of her lead role and trying to run her out of the city. But Kaelen isn't just a ruthless billionaire. He is an exiled Dragon King, hiding from a murderous father who slaughtered his own family to seize the throne. And the glowing, ember-like mark on Elara's collarbone isn't a birthmark-it's a magical beacon. Claiming her would paint a target on her back, making her the ultimate pawn in a centuries-old war. His rejection wasn't cruelty. It was a desperate, agonizing act of protection. But fate doesn't care about control. When mysterious, magical sabotage threatens to bring the tower crashing down, Elara and Kaelen are forced into close proximity. The tension is unbearable. The banter is sharp. And the incendiary heat between them is impossible to deny. As ancient, shadowy enemies breach the city's defenses, Kaelen is pushed to the edge.
