Lyra never expected much from her life. Dismissed as a powerless fox and eventually betrayed by her own fiancé, she's offered up as a sacrifice to the feared Dragon King — a fate she assumes will end in her death. What she doesn't expect is to open her eyes and find herself face to face with the one person responsible for saving her.
That person is Draven, the very king everyone fears. And he isn't just her rescuer — he's revealed to be her fated mate, a connection neither of them saw coming. For Lyra, a woman used to being overlooked and underestimated, this revelation changes everything about who she thought she was.
But peace doesn't come easily. As enemies start conspiring against the newly formed bond between Lyra and Draven, Lyra discovers something else hidden inside her: frost powers she never knew she had. What was once a story about survival becomes a story about standing beside someone and fighting for what they've built together.
"The Useless Bride, the Dragon King Craves" is a story about being underestimated and discovering strength in the most unexpected circumstances. Lyra's journey from sacrifice to fated mate to a woman awakening her own power is only just beginning.
The full story follows Lyra and Draven as they fight to protect their bond and reclaim the throne.
