Hearts of Shadow and Song
In the years between legends, when dragons soared freely above Berk and danger lurked beyond the horizon, two souls destined for anything but peace found each other.
Malikai, the mysterious rider of a mythical Scrios dragon, is a man shaped by darkness-
abandoned, abused, and taught that love is a weapon that only cuts deeper.
Hidden behind a mask and the wings of his colossal dragon, Shadow, he keeps the world at a distance...
until the one person he fears to trust sees right through him.
Kaylee, a gifted dragon-rider with a Deathsong named Melody, knows pain too-but refuses to let it poison her heart. When the others call Malikai a threat, she sees something else:
a wounded spirit, desperate for a home he's never known.
And she refuses to walk away.
Drawn together by fate, tested by war, and bound by a love neither expected, Malikai and Kaylee must confront their deepest scars to protect the fragile, powerful bond growing between them. As Shadow and Melody forge their own unlikely kinship, the couple faces merciless enemies, shattering battles, and a destiny far larger than either imagined.
Their journey will lead them from isolation to intimacy, from fear to belonging, and ultimately...
from darkness into dawn.
And as years pass, their love becomes the foundation of a new legacy-
one carried in the wings of dragons, the laughter of their children,
and the hearts of the grandchildren who bring their story full circle.
Hearts of Shadow and Song is a sweeping tale of healing, courage, dragon-fire, and the kind of love that changes everything-
a story of two broken souls who discovered that home isn't a place...
it's a heart that calls yours by name.
