Alim has lived a few days in the captivity of the Dragon Lord's son Erol, and while he has not learned to love his new life he has at least grown brave enough to venture outside his chambers. However, waiting for him in the opulent palace gardens is another dragon prince, one who claims to be the true prince and far more suited to becoming Alim's mate. Soon, Alim's body and desires are at the center of a feud spanning centuries, with both princes vying to claim him.
