She was destined to protect.

He was born to destroy.

Beaten and cast out by her own people, Alezya was left to die in the freezing mountains. Her crime? Protecting the child they never wanted.

But fate had other plans. Instead of death, she is found by the Wild Prince of the Empire. Feared across the Empire for his silence, his brutal strength, and his mad dragon, Prince Kassein has no reason to spare a stranger's life...

And yet, he does. Now trapped in his camp, under his protection, Alezya is surrounded by enemies and haunted by a past she can't outrun. But the man who saved her watches over her like something precious... And the longer she stays, the harder it is to tell whether he's her captor, her guardian, or something far more dangerous.

What will happen now that she is trapped on his land, at his mercy...?
