When both the impossible and improbable happen and, out of all the wondrous creatures that reside in Amyron, young Aleta faces a dragon, she feels her whole world change and steps up to take the mantle of the hero that her people need. Or not. Preferably, not. With her moral compass pointing in quite the opposite direction and her not so sunny disposition making it difficult to find allies, our young heroine would rather slip away and hide her hide, so to say.

And yet, as the news of dragons returning break out, she might just have to put her lifelong dream of getting rich aside and go on a world saving spree.All Rights Reserved

A Coil of Shadows and Sunlight by AkiNoHyo

In a world where power decides fate, those born without magic-the Snakes-are seen as cursed, descendants of the Great White Serpent that was cast into the depths long ago. They are outcasts, prey for the Sun-Blessed, who wield magic like gods and rule with an iron grip. Mila has always known what she is-a Snake, meant to bow, meant to suffer. Until the day she is thrown from the heights, left to die at the hands of the powerful. But death never comes. Her blood ignites. Her body shifts. And from the abyss, she rises-a dragon reborn. Across the golden spires, Prince Edwin is raised to believe his destiny is to command a great dragon, just as his ancestors did before him. The world is his to rule, and the Snakes are his to crush. But Edwin is soft, too kind for a world built on cruelty. He dreams of peace, of change-of a future where power isn't everything. When fate binds the prince and the dragon together, their worlds collide in a way neither could have expected. Mila is no servant, and Edwin is no tyrant-but in a world that demands they be enemies, can they rewrite the story written in their blood? A legend reborn. A kingdom on the brink. And two souls bound by fate, standing on opposite sides of a war that has raged for centuries.

Shadowed Thrones by Blackraven0927

Amyra Shahzeb had always been the perfect daughter-strong for her father, protective of her brothers, and willing to sacrifice her dreams for the family's honor. But when she's forced into a marriage with Ashar Aarez, her world begins to crack. Ashar, a member of an ancient dragon lineage, is no ordinary husband. As the wedding ceremony unfolds, Amyra is thrust into a world of hidden realms, ancient power, and a throne shadowed by blood and betrayal. But the greatest threat isn't Ashar's lineage nor the other dragons, it's Amyra herself, when she discovers what her very own body harbours. Feared by all the dragons for centuries, the entity sleeping inside Amyra is struggling to awaken. What will follow? What exactly is her identity? Is she supposed to die or supposed to rule? ****** As the ceremony progresses, Amyra suddenly feels a burning sensation on her arm, and instinctively, she clutches it beneath her dupatta. She tries to suppress the pain, not wanting to make a scene, but Ashar notices and leans in. His concern is brief, replaced by something darker when he sees the mark now imprinted just below her elbow. Ashar freezes. His heart pounds as the unmistakable symbol of a dragon pulses beneath her skin-the exact same mark he bears. "No..." he whispers, disbelief clouding his voice. "This can't be..." But it is. A thousand thoughts race through his mind, each one colliding into the one truth he can no longer deny: She isn't human. She's a dragon. And not just any dragon-his fated one. Amyra stares at him, confused, but Ashar's gaze is distant, filled with a terror that matches the gravity of the situation. "I thought I was not supposed to," he mutters. "I thought I was the last..." The mark is a prophecy, an unbreakable bond, and one that will forever tie Amyra to a world she never asked to be part of. And to Ashar, who never thought he could find his soul mate.
