Stolen By Silver Serpent

Bella was warned to avoid serpents her whole life. Yet she rescues a gravely‑injured man in the woods — the feared Silver Serpent King Silvan. He marks her as his destined mate. He crashes her wedding to claim her publicly. When her childhood lover betrays her and hands her over as a sacrifice, Bella is left hunted and dying. The monster she once feared turns out to be her only protector.
