The Serpent and the Son

viperous is a lamia and Ethan is his adopted-child Viper is also the same age as dragon horse. Blood doesn't make a family. Loyalty and love do.

Ethan knows exactly what his father is. He knows about the scales, the instincts, and the human mask Viper has to wear every single day. But Ethan doesn't care. Viper raised him, loved him, and gave him a home when no one else would.

But a shadow has fallen over them. Heaven's divine hands have left a devastating scar, inflicting a cruel fate upon Ethan and seven other innocent souls.

Now, the real battle begins at home. Viper is a creature used to absolute control, but he has no idea how to fix a broken spirit. As he watches Ethan navigate the suffocating grief of what was done to him, this ancient Lamia must learn what it truly means to be human. It's a story of survival, a father's desperate attempt to understand his son's pain, and the unbreakable bond between a serpent and the boy who calls him father.
