I gave myself to the dragon king, prepared to become his mate to protect my sisters. But that's not why he wanted me. He just needs my help breaking a prisoner in his cell, to keep his people safe. And he doesn't want me to risk my life to do it. When it becomes clear that's the only way? I take it upon myself to make it happen, and almost get myself killed. That's when the truth comes I'm his fated mate. But I won't seal the bond with him. I can't. No matter how I feel about him. Because mate bonds? They bite even harder than love. *This is a spicy enemies-to-lovers romance with a happily ever after
