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.

It starts with a flame

Ravina sat with her back to Malachi and held a shawl to her bare chest while he took care of her wounds. Her entire body was still on fire and the damp cloth he used to clean her wound was soothing against her burning skin. She wanted it on her face to soothe the heat on her cheeks as well. 

"I am sorry," he suddenly said. 

Ravina frowned. "Oh.. it is not your fault. I just don't feel it sometimes." 

The pain. 

When he stopped she first thought that it was because she kept pushing him away or fighting against him but that wasn't really what she meant to do. She just reacted that way, pushing away when it became too intense and then pulling him in for more. 

God. She surely lost her mind. She hated not having control over things and now she created this bloody mess. That was why he had stopped because he didn't act like someone who would any time soon. 

She shivered, her nipples still stiff and tingling from the rough play of his tongue.
