Five hundred and eighty-seven tributes have been chosen by the Dragon Lord. None of them survived. At eighteen, Mira is next-torn from her village by Zhyrkon, a six-hundred-year-old dragon lord whose appetite for tribute is matched only by his cruelty. The chosen are meant to break quickly, to become another portrait in his gallery: beautiful, detailed, dead. Mira refuses. Zhyrkon has ruled through absolute dominance for centuries. He has never been challenged. Never been questioned. Never faced a woman who met his gaze with anything but fear. Until her. Survival in a dragon's court means navigating a creature who can burn her to ash within seconds, who has already claimed hundreds of lives before her. So Mira watches, learns, asks questions no one has dared to ask. She studies the Dragon Lord, searching for the pattern that might keep her alive. But the deeper she digs into the mystery of Zhyrkon, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Because the greatest threat may not be his fire... ...but the possibility that he doesn't want her to break at all. Will Mira survive the Dragon Lord- or become his next masterpiece?

In Avaris, dragon bonds hold power, and mine might destroy everything. At twenty-four, my path in the Scaleborne Legion should have been simple. I never expected Nocthyrn, a wild Shadow dragon no one should bond, to choose me. Our bond pulls me into a triad with two elite riders who are nothing like I expected. Kane, a controlled storm wielder, dangerous in all the wrong ways. Caleb, a fire wielder, warm enough to melt every defense I have. Training with them is chaos. Fighting with them is power. Falling for them? I never stood a chance. Something ancient has awakened between us, something fierce and realm breaking, magic strong enough to tear Avaris apart or save it.

Book 2 of the Arclight Academy series. The Academy was supposed to be safe. They were wrong. After the attack that nearly destroyed everything they knew, Serenya Vale and the other surviving riders find refuge at Draxen Manor-but safety was never meant to last. As they prepare to return to the Academy, Serenya struggles to master the power of her bond while Kairen Draxen pushes her harder than ever. Their connection has become something neither of them can ignore, but secrets buried within the Draxen family may change everything they thought they knew about bonds, dragons, and magic. When Serenya discovers an old journal belonging to Kairen's grandmother, she begins uncovering theories that were never meant to be forgotten. And somewhere in those pages may lie the answers they need. Because the attack was only the beginning. And whatever is coming next won't give them a choice. Some bonds are forged by magic. Others are forged by darkness.

"The weak don't survive here." At Arclight Academy, your worth is measured by the creature you bond with. For Serenya Vale, a scholarship student born with a chronic, progressive illness, surviving the brutal training seems impossible. She expects to fail. She expects to die. What she doesn't expect is Kairen Draxen. Lethal, silent, and wrapped in living darkness, Kairen is the only rider in centuries to bond with a shadow dragon. To survive his bond, he had to stop feeling entirely, turning himself into a cold, unyielding void. No one can break his control. Until Serenya walks through the iron gates. Suddenly, Kairen's shadows are acting on their own-escaping his command to pool at Serenya's feet and ease her pain. As the lethal academy trials begin, the two are forced into an impossible proximity. Bound by a cosmic soul connection that demands his darkness surrender to her light, Kairen is terrified of losing control, and Serenya is just trying to stay alive.

She saves his life. He decides she belongs to him. A wounded Lycan King crashes into Evangeline's peaceful life during a storm. Valério is a Lycan King from a world where monsters rule and weakness has no place. Evangeline is a simple 21st-century herbalist who dreams only of peace. She lives a quiet life, convinced that nothing will ever disrupt her daily routine. Until him. They do not speak the same language. They do not belong to the same world. They should not even exist in the same reality. Yet, from the moment they meet, their souls recognize each other. Between burning desire and fear of the unknown, between unspoken secrets and love, they will have to learn to understand one another despite everything that separates them. For their meeting is not the result of chance. It was written long before they were born. And what if the storm raging outside was nothing compared to the one awakening within them?

The Soulmark chooses two people to balance the world, pairing the cruel with the good. Elara always thought the Soulmark is a legend. When she's marked, she expects a distant lord. Instead, it chooses a king. A cruel king. A silver-eyed shadow in her mind. One month to fulfill the mark... or both lose a piece of their soul forever.

TRIGGER WARNING: NON-CONSENSUAL marking (as in biting the nape of the neck to claim someone as your bonded mate.) When the Wolf King, Malachai, meets a mysterious young woman in the gardens of his keep, her warmth shatters the cold iron of his heart. She speaks to him and teases him, unaware that the man before her is the very ruler whispered about in fear: the king rumoured to have murdered his own fated mate. For the first time in years, Malachai feels alive, until her world collides with his in a way neither of them could have foreseen. Lillybelle has always been the outsider, the half-breed daughter of a beta and a human. Her life has been a careful balance of obedience and invisibility. But when her childhood friend and secret love, Rylan, publicly rejects her in front of the entire Royal Summit, her world fractures. Betrayed, humiliated, and stripped of the one bond she dreamed of, she's left standing alone, until the cold, dangerous king steps forward to claim her.

She was born without a wolf. In a world where that meant weakness... she became something far more dangerous. Hailey was never meant to survive. Left at the border as a baby. Raised by warriors instead of family. Fighting for a place in a pack that never truly claimed her. No wolf. No bond. No future written in fate. So she carved her own. Blade by blade. Scar by scar. Battle by battle. She became a protector. A fighter. A weapon. Until the night everything changed. A rogue attack. Blood on her hands. And a bond that should not exist. Because when fate finally finds her... it doesn't come gently. It comes as four. Four Alpha heirs from rival bloodlines. Four wolves bound to the ancient kingdoms of Ice, Forest, Storm, and Desert. Four men powerful enough to rule and dangerous enough to destroy. They feel her before she understands them. They claim her before she can run. And they will not let her go. But Hailey is not the girl they think she is. Because something has been hidden from her. Something buried deep in her blood. Something powerful enough to shift the balance of every pack. A prophecy long forgotten is awakening. One female born of all four ancient lineages. One who will either unite the wolves... or tear them apart. Now the hunt has begun. Enemies are watching. Allies are lying. And the truth about who and what Hailey really is could change everything. But the greatest danger may not be the war rising around her... It may be the bond pulling her closer to four Alphas she doesn't trust and can't resist. She spent her life fighting to survive alone. Now four Alphas are willing to burn the world to claim her. The only question is Will she choose them or destroy them first?
