(UPDATES ON HIATUS)
Ezra is not your average high school student. He has a life-changing secret--he is a dragon, and not from this realm. But instead of being an outcast, he is respected and loved by many of his peers. But not without sacrifice.
As the youngest Student Council President, he has duties to upheld--and feelings to be resolved. While he may be the definition of the perfect guy: tall, attractive, charismatic, and smart--a lot goes on behind his walls as he takes back his life in an unfamiliar environment.
And eventually, one person stumbled into his life and changed everything for him.
A freshman, one that never spoke up but always stood out. And yet, as Ezra came to befriend them--their shining personality slipped through the cracks little by little. Their name was Robyn. Despite being total opposites when it came to their outward personalities and social circles, Ezra came to realize that they had more in common than he originally thought.
