The most dangerous dragon is the one who's been caged...
Airk Azdajah, the rightful High King of all dragon shifters, spent half a millennium being tortured by the false High King Pytheios. Airk was kept alive barely and unable to shift because of a curse: the man who kills Airk will be consumed in his own fire.
Upon his escape, Airk realises he'll never be truly free. He'll never be able to shift. Ever. Because Airk's dragon - vicious and filled with uncontained rage - has turned feral over the last five centuries. Letting his dragon free would be an instant bloodbath.
There's only one person who doesn't shy away from him - which is almost worse. Because to a broken man, the warmth and temptation of Angelika Amon is both heaven and hell.
Forces are shifting against the High King, pitting dragon against dragon. And whether Airk likes it or not, his fate seems to be tied to the phoenix who haunts his dreams and tests every ounce of his control.
But loving Angelika means unleashing the most lethal creature in their world: his dragon.
