A brother's disguise traps him as a dragon's doomed eighth bride.
Laine never expected the altar to become his cage. He wore his sister's veil to spare her from Dragon King Azael, only for the monarch to seize him and name him fated mate and eighth consort. History whispers that the previous seven perished in agony, a warning Laine cannot silence. He rails against wedding another man, yet every shared moment chips away his resistance, coaxing a tenderness he never invited. Neither realizes the curse binding them demands a price measured in heartbeats.
