When the Death King came with his mighty black dragon and army of the dead, he shattered fifteen-year-old princess's world. King Laurier couldn't stop him, her escape failed, and instead of death, she received a crueler fate—ten years as a slave in the Arid Sands, digging for Black Diamonds under the relentless sun. But fate has other plans when she attempts to steal the Death King's dragon and discovers the impossible: she can speak to him.
Khazmuda is no ordinary beast. This massive black dragon communicates directly in her mind, revealing a gift she never knew she possessed—the ability to speak dragons. When the Death King discovers this power, he spares her life once more and brings her to his castle, unaware she's the daughter of the king he destroyed ten years ago. The tension crackles as he asks her to fight for his cause, while she struggles with an attraction she can't deny for the man who ruined everything.
The Death King is everything she shouldn't want—towering, powerful, with eyes black as midnight and a jawline sharp as dragon talons. Yet his obsession with her grows daily, while General Titan watches her with unsettling intensity. As she uncovers the truth about her family's fate and the Death King's mysterious plans, she must decide where her loyalty truly lies. Can revenge coexist with desire when your enemy holds the key to your survival?
In this dark fantasy world, supernatural gifts come with deadly consequences. The Death King's castle is a place of both power and peril, where every word could be your last and every smile could be your undoing. As political machinations unfold and ancient powers awaken, our protagonist must use her unexpected gift to navigate a world where dragons obey her commands but human hearts remain treacherous and unpredictable.
