In a world where human lives mean nothing, every choice leads to death, sooner or later.
When Xyrena Draven turns eighteen, she has only three options:
Enter the academy, receive a Mark from the gods and survive long enough to reach the fourth year to train as a dragon rider, join the military, or spend her life as a slave with no future.
Like most people, she chooses the most dangerous path.
The Mark she receives is not a gift, but a forbidden curse. Its power slowly destroys her body and makes her a target for those in power.
While being hunted, Xyrena is tied to Kaelen Rodrigues, the Crown Prince who should be her enemy and the only person who can either save her or destroy her.
As a revolution begins to rise, the world demands one final decision.
Who deserves to live and who must be sacrificed for real change to happen?
