Jai, a royal hostage in the Sabine Court, has lived under the shadow of his father’s execution for years. Once a rebel leader, his father’s failure left Jai at the mercy of the emperor who killed him.
When the emperor’s son marries Princess Erica of Dansk, the court is introduced to a powerful dowry—dragons. These beasts, bonded to Dansk royalty, hold untold power. But secrets surround the magic needed to control them.
Amid conspiracies and chaos, Jai seizes his chance to escape with Frida, a Dansk handmaiden, and a stolen dragon hatchling. On the run, he must quickly master the forbidden art of soulbonding to harness the dragon’s power—and avenge his people.
Can Jai become a warrior before his enemies close in?
