The Villain Origins: The Dragon And The Fae

by Taryn Tary

"I’ll be damned if I fall for your charms, fae…”

Ryke, the fierce king of dragons, wants blood. A faerie killed one of his own, and vengeance is all he craves. So when a faerie burning for the same revenge stumbles into his territory, he seizes her as his prisoner. Deals are struck, magic seals their fates, and suddenly enemies find themselves bound tighter than either expected.

Their every clash is fire and fury—a dance of blades, wings, and words sharp enough to cut. But hate has a way of twisting into something far more dangerous when desire sparks in its place. As danger closes in, Ryke and his unwilling captive must decide: cling to revenge, or surrender to the fate that binds them… even if love turns out to be the deadliest risk of all.
