King of Flames and Shadows by Liv Raven

The Dragon King wanted a breeding vessel. He got me.

I’ve been an outcast my entire life—scarred, shunned, and different. My fellow humans have been cruel, but nothing compares to the brutality of the dragons.
Arvoren, the last Dragon King, rules Kaldoria with an iron fist, a kingdom torn apart by war and cursed by vengeful gods. Desperate to preserve his ancient bloodline, he hunts for a human bride. When his soldiers descend on my remote village, capturing pure, untouched women, I become their prize.
I’m dragged to the king’s castle, where he strips me of my freedom and chains my ankles in cursed metal. He doesn’t want me as his queen—I’m unworthy in the gods’ eyes. Instead, I’m his prisoner, his pawn, his plaything. Bathed, bound, and forced into suffocating gowns, I vow to escape him.
But his forced proximity awakens something inside me—a power I never knew I had. When his kingdom is overrun by beasts and undead creatures, I discover I’m the only one who can stop the world from burning.
I must play his wicked mind games. I must obey his cruel commands. I must let him claim me in every possible way.
But whatever I do, he must not know that his flames are burning my heart…
