Barely surviving a brutal forced birth, Beth begs for her baby’s life—only to watch Victoria smash the infant against the stone floor while Julian looks on with cold contempt. They dump her body like garbage. Then she is reborn. This lifetime Beth no longer begs. She endures dragon fire without breaking, sings the one song that can stop the Dragon King, and makes Alexander Drake claim her as his own. Victoria, Julian, and Martha still believe they hold all the power. They have no idea the woman they once destroyed has returned—and this time, she will take everything.
