Nurse Lydia accepts a deadly 30-day mate bond with Dragon King Soren after saving his life.
A Valentine's shift turns into a fight for autonomy when Lydia's mercy toward a dying stranger earns her a death sentence from Soren, the Dragon King who rules a hidden realm. The terms are simple: submit to a month-long fated-mate contract or die immediately. Thrust into a court of immortal politics and lethal intrigue, the human nurse refuses to break, matching his tyranny with sharp-tongued resistance. Yet proximity peels back the monster's armor, revealing a vulnerable heart beneath the scales. As the contract's expiration looms, the line between captor and chosen partner blurs, forcing Lydia to weigh freedom against a bond forged in fire and blood.
