Book 1

Dracho Celesta may destroy everything.

In Tenebris, heir to the exiled dragon kingdom, Dracho Celesta, offers to venture to the mortal realm to discover the cause of vicious attacks which have plagued the land and threaten his home. Maintaining his human form will be difficult whilst his irrational dragon fights to be freed, and he must master control to prevent war between the realms. But beyond his home, he will meet someone who pushes the limits of his patience...

During their quest, Dracho must place his trust in the mortals he accompanies, whilst the enigmatic Eli makes him question everything he has ever been taught. Though they have their differences, the future of the continent lies in their entwined fates. The more time they spend together, the more Dracho wants to uncover Eli's secrets...and the harder it becomes for Dracho to hide his identity.

Until he cannot hide it anymore.

Facing enemies, tragedy and an ancient entity brings them together. But their secrets may just tear them apart.

Book 2

Consumed by rage and plagued by nightmares of events from months before, Eliana has returned to her home of Meridium. She resumes her duties as heir to the throne, thrust amongst those in court who see her as unworthy. But danger presents itself again when those blessed by the first mages return, and the Hollow resumes its path of chaos across the continent.

Working together again is the last thing she wants, and his presence reveals temptation like she's never known. Dracho's merging and quest for revenge has changed who he is, and Eliana must align who she once knew, with the unforgiving beast that now walks amongst her people.

As the unrest grows throughout Ruvalon, the rulers cling to what semblance of peace they have left, and the whisper of war grows stronger with every new bit of information they find. But as tragedy strikes, steeped in shadows and betrayal, Eliana experiences more torment than her worst nightmares could ever have given her.

Can Dracho save her in time? Can he save her from herself? Or will her determination to fight fate ensure their bond will remain ripped apart, dooming Ruvalon for the ages?

Especially when war arrives at her front door...
