Caleb is a dark, commanding dragon shifter, a force to be reckoned with. When he witnesses the demon slave Lileta being brutally beaten by his Overlord, Odage, he intervenes, claiming her as his own—an instinct he doesn’t fully understand. Soon, Caleb realizes an unthinkable truth: the gods have fated Lileta to be his mate, but her venomous touch is lethal to him. Mating is impossible unless he’s willing to sacrifice his life.
Abducted as a teenager and sold into slavery, Lileta has relied on her deadly venom to protect herself from harm. When Caleb rescues her, she struggles with this new reality—and her undeniable connection to the dragon who saved her. As much as they are drawn to one another, their union is forbidden.
When a goddess is abducted, fate thrusts Caleb and Lileta back together, sparking a dangerous, passionate bond neither can resist. With fatal consequences looming, they must trust in destiny and each other—even if it means risking everything.
