A witch bound to the king. A dragon bound by duty. A forbidden love to set them free.

***

In a land where magical beings are persecuted, Aurélie has earned her freedom and quiet life in her cabin in the woods. Finally free from the king's possession, she is content to live out the rest of her days alone, with only her magic to keep her company.
But when an injured dragon lands, quite literally, at her feet one morning, she does what any powerful witch would do - she rescues the helpless creature.
Cináed has been in the king's service for decades; he is the only dragon shifter mage left of his kind. A magical collar keeps him chained and at the beck and call of the king until an arrow takes him down during battle, and he has no choice but to land at the feet of a strange woman.
When her spell goes awry, and the king comes looking for his precious creature, Aurélie and Cináed are forced to band together in order to free themselves of their past.

This adult romantasy novella is perfect for readers who love fast-paced, steamy stories with banter and forced proximity. This novella is a companion to When The Night Swallowed The Moon, releasing in March 2025.
