The Dragon King's Bride's Escape Plan

Herb-gathering girl Elara rescues wounded Silver Dragon prince Drakon, disguised as human "Devin." Framed by her friend Mira as a sacrifice, they're imprisoned together. Drakon secretly needs her to retrieve the Ancient Dragon Scale to overthrow his brother Vorthax. Ambushed, Elara is gravely wounded; Drakon awakens as Dragon King, slays Vorthax, heals her, and proclaims her Queen. She forgives his deception—their love takes root in trust.
