Touch of Flame

He is a threat to her existence. A hot-blooded dragon of Royal blood, King Malachi is taken hostage by the humans he despises so much. Deprived of his freedom, he is imprisoned in a dark cave, his rage growing with each day of torture and humiliation. The only light he sees comes in the form of a human female, offering her care. A woman who makes him burn with equal fury and desire. A woman who has no place in his heart or mind, for only one thought sustains him. Vengeance! And even if her kindness softens his heart and her touch sets his body aflame, she will not be spared his wrath. Because once he breaks the chains of slavery, he will burn down her whole world. She is the key to his freedom. The cold-hearted princess Ravina is a woman with a mission. Eradicate the dragon race from the face of earth. But when she finds out that the very creatures who killed her parents could also be the ones who kidnapped her sister, she has no choice but to change her plans. To find her sister, she must get closer to the creature she despises. But things don’t always go as planned and soon Ravina ends up finding more than she bargained for. Caught in a battle between humans and dragons, love and hatred, trust and betrayal, Ravina must make every choice with caution. And with every step she takes closer to the fiery beast, she risks melting the ice surrounding her heart and being consumed by the flames of fury and passion.

A Battle Within

Ravina felt tired and dizzy during the first few hours after waking up. Weakness and occasional disorientation overwhelmed her, exacerbated by the sight of the chaos that had befallen their home after the attack.

"It will be alright. We are already rebuilding," Malachi assured her, his arm wrapped around her shoulders. "You shouldn't worry yourself. Focus on your health and rest."

"No, I'm fine now," she insisted, her determination driving her to help. There was much to be done. "What about the humans?" she asked, turning to him.

Malachi's smile didn't quite reach his eyes. "Most of them perished, but we have a few in prison."

"Let me speak to them," Ravina requested. 

He hesitated momentarily, but eventually relented. 

Guiding her to the dungeon, Ravina found herself standing in front of a cell, where a man sat in a corner, partially concealed by shadows. His worn and battle-scarred appearance revealed the hardships he had endured.
