Zacharias has ruled over his clan alone ever since his second passed in a tragic accident over a year ago, but dragons always mate in triads and some believed his position was temporary, as a result. Furthermore, the arrival of his mate and Asher only increased the already mounting tension. What began as a journey to end one war somehow led to the precipice of another. Yet this time, Mari and the humans were the ones directly in the crosshairs, leaving Asher and Rias to scramble against the clock to break down their mate’s walls as long-held secrets emerge.
