Dabria has been a slave since the day of her sixth birthday when her father sold her. For eleven years she had traveled with the slave troupe managing to avoid auction, that is until she turned seventeen and was deemed too valuable to keep off the market any longer. At her very first auction, she is bought by a mysterious man who gives her a new name and an offer that is almost too good to refuse. "Marry me and whatever you want, no matter how hard it may be, I will do my best to fulfill any and all the desires you can think of."

The Romen Reckoning
In the heart of the Roman Empire, where the auction block is law, Deianira Valerius harbors a dangerous secret. The youngest daughter of a brutal slave-owning family, she defies her heritage by buying the very lives her kin exploit-not to command, but to set free. Her sprawling mansion is a hidden sanctuary, a delicate defiance against the world. Then she encounters Kratos, a foreign slave broken by years of cruelty, his spirit hardened by endless attempts at escape. He trusts no one, especially not a Roman noblewoman, even one who murmurs promises of freedom. But Deianira is unlike any mistress he has known. And when three colossal, ancient dragons-her family's deepest secret, her loyal companions of scale and fire-emerge from the Roman night, Kratos is forced to confront a truth more unbelievable than his own freedom. Can a bond forged in impossible compassion and unimaginable power break the chains of a lifetime of distrust, even as the ruthless Roman world threatens to consume them both?

But why was it only in his presence that she felt calmer than she had in years, that made her stir with yearnings of desire she had never felt before? Knowing all that she did about him, she should resist the pull that she feels for him... Aëghan had one purpose in this world- to find a way out of it. It was the only thing he lived for, the only thing guiding his every action. Until her. He could not allow himself to nurture the attraction he had for Lillian Adams, he couldn't allow anything, especially not a human woman that made his soul come alive, to come between him and his ultimate goal- to leave this world and return to his own. And Lillian was just that- a distraction, a hindrance. But the desire of his mind went against the desire of his heart as even the Gods urged their union. Aëghan was not convinced he would be able to make the choice should the time arrive when he had to- her, or his world and people.Complete
