He needed a human to survive. He chose the one who would never belong to anyone. Greta Veyne has spent her life mastering control. A battle-scarred mage with ice in her veins and no patience for destiny, she doesn't bond, doesn't trust-and definitely doesn't submit. Then a dragon prince finds her. Samzon is dying. His power is breaking him from the inside out, and ancient law demands he bind himself to a human to survive. But instead of choosing someone obedient... someone safe... He chooses Greta. The one woman who would rather burn the world than be claimed. Their forced bond ignites something neither of them can control- fire and frost colliding, magic unraveling, desire turning dangerous. But the ritual doesn't just stabilize Samson. It changes everything. Their connection becomes something forbidden. Unprecedented. Alive. And when dragons across the kingdom begin losing control-turning into living catastrophes-the truth becomes clear: Greta and Samson aren't just the solution. They're the beginning of something that could destroy the world... or remake it. Now hunted by a ruthless dragon court and standing at the center of a growing magical collapse, they must decide- Break the bond and survive... Or embrace it-and risk becoming something unstoppable. Perfect for fans of: enemies-to-lovers tension slow-burn, high-heat romantasy powerful, morally complex heroines bonded mates / magical connection tropes epic fantasy with emotional depth One choice. One bond. One world on the edge of fire.
