My Blood, His Cure

Orphaned Yelena is sold into the underground as if she were worthless cargo, but her fate shifts when she turns out to be the only cure for Nikolai, a man marked by the dragon-blood affliction. Their bond is forced by necessity rather than desire, and each sees the other as an adversary to be endured. Yelena must decide whether to hold onto her hard-won resentment or accept that her own blood may be the thing that saves him.
