Dragonborn The Four Flames

In ancient Aetheran, dragonborn royals hold dominion over seven kingdoms, yet a curse a thousand years old shortens purebloods' lives to less than a century, and each generation brings fewer heirs. Elena, a noblewoman from a house that has fallen from power, offers her bloodline at a sacred ritual to pay for her dying mother's care. There she catches the eye of Crown Prince Drake, who assumes she is after his wealth and, driven by desperation, binds himself to her through the ancient Dragonflame Union. Their marriage of necessity sets the stage for a dangerous struggle over the future of his bloodline.
