"The love I believed to be salvation was actually a prison." A dragon is destined to crave the lost orb of life. Thus, the dragon’s mate is not chosen, it is predetermined. Serene, a refined lady from a noble family, marries Emperor Isbrandt, the heir of the dragon’s blood, as dictated by her fate as the dragon’s companion. When memories lost to an accident resurface, and the truth the emperor had hidden is revealed, the shackles he placed on her had already tightly bound Serene.
