Once, their world thrived with the living magic of creation—power so pure it let their ancestors take the form of mighty beasts. But that magic has long faded, leaving only six noble houses descended from those ancient creatures to rule what remains. Elian, heir to a fading legacy, hides a secret that could either save or destroy them all. Bound by fate to Cassian, the dragon prince, their forbidden connection could awaken the old magic—or doom their world forever. As lies unravel and old rivalries ignite, Elian and Cassian must stand together, forging uneasy alliances and facing enemies within their own bloodlines. In a world built on deceit and fear, the truth they uncover might be the spark that brings the beasts—and the chaos—back to life.
