The Forbidden Crown

Elara is coerced into marrying Black Dragon King Draven in her sister’s place. In her darkest moment, Draven forces the Abyssal Dragon Pearl into her body, binding her to a power she never asked for. When she tries to escape, her parents condemn her instead of protecting her, and Draven intervenes to assert his claim before punishing her defiance. At the wedding, the pearl’s effect overwhelms Elara, and Draven seals her fate with a forced kiss before carrying her away.
