Kingdom of Roses and Flame
Belle and the Dragon King

Beauty hunted the beast. He captured her heart.I've been underestimated my entire life. Too mortal. Too forgettable. Too powerless.When a dragon captures my mentor, I track it beyond the borders of safety—straight into the grasp of a cursed king who's more monster than man. He's ruthless. Dangerous. And convinced I was sent to destroy him.I force him into a bargain: my mentor's freedom for my life. Simple. Except nothing about the king is simple.A prophecy binds us. His castle breathes secrets. The walls whisper. And every day I spend in his domain, the line between captor and something far more dangerous blurs.He needs me for reasons he won't explain, and I can't tell if he's keeping me safe—or keeping me close for the kill.Time is running out. If I don't break the curse, my kingdom burns. But breaking it means trusting the beast I know I should hate.
