‏In a world where hybrids are hunted, a ten-year-old human boy named Kayle sacrificed his freedom to save a terrified dragon girl. Captured and tortured, he spent eight years as a magical battery in the dungeons of Valtherion. She escaped, trained, and conquered a floating kingdom, becoming Lilith, the ruthless Queen of Dragons. She believed he was dead. ‏ ‏But he is alive. ‏ ‏When whispers reach the floating palace of Drakorys, Lilith awakens the ancient dragon, Dracon. She will march on the human kingdoms, not for conquest, but for the one soul who ever showed her kindness. But rescuing Kayle from the depths of a corrupt empire is only the beginning. Can a battle-hardened queen and a traumatized prisoner navigate a world of political intrigue, magic, and slow-burning love? Or will the Aether consume them both?
