The Dragon’s Sacrificed Bride

Earl's daughter sacrificed to a black dragon becomes his branded bride, resists possession, and faces rival dragon violence.

An ambitious earl throws his eighteen-year-old eldest daughter Ella into an abyss as a living sacrifice to the world-ending black dragon Rhaesa, bargaining for a noble title while holding her younger sister Lia hostage. Rhaesa plucks Ella from death but sears his ownership into her skin, claiming her as a sacrificial bride inside a temple where every acolyte despises her. She refuses to kneel, biding time to resist, until the dragon aristocrat Gale corners her with brutal force. Her scream summons Rhaesa's wrath, and his protective fury cracks her resolve. Caught between her family's betrayal and the dragon's dangerous obsession, Ella fights to protect Lia and refuse the role of a pawn passed between powers.
