Ivy, a peasant girl from Grey Valley, brings a Dragon Tear Stone to the royal palace—only to discover her foster sister Serene has stolen her identity, posing as the Dragon Speaker to marry Dragon Lord Kyler. Secretly colluding with Severin, lord of the Shadow Abyss, Serene schemes to eliminate Ivy. Yet when Kyler loses control to his ancient wounds, Ivy’s presence alone calms his rage, and a deep bond forms between them. Serene traps Ivy in a deadly ritual, but Ivy breaks free with Kyler’s scale, sheds her blood on the Star Gem, and awakens the Dragon Lord. Together they shatter the Shadow invasion. With the truth exposed, Kyler names Ivy his true Queen. A tale of stolen destiny, quiet courage, and the power of a heart that heals even a dragon’s deepest scar.
