The Serpent Who Carried a Dragon's Child

Doomed to die before his twenty-second birthday, snake demon Asher disguises himself with false horns and enters the Dragon Clan Academy. To save his life, he binds himself to Prince Kyle and soon carries his heir. But when Asher learns Kyle is promised to another and has publicly condemned snakes, he vanishes before anyone can discover his secret. Branded a fugitive, Asher must run while Kyle uncovers the deception, his own buried devotion, and the ruthless demands of his clan. Determined to claim the family he never knew he wanted, Kyle challenges the council to find Asher and protect the child they share.
