The Dragon Princess's Choice

In her first life, dragon princess Vivian loses her parents’ love and her fiancé, Jack, to her adopted younger sister, Erin. Imprisoned in a basement and sexually abused by homeless men, she takes her own life by slitting her throat. Before she dies, she sees her parents attending Erin and Jack’s wedding. Vivian is reborn three years earlier, on the day Erin joins House Wales. Determined never to suffer the same fate again, she carefully navigates her parents’ favoritism, Erin’s manipulations, and Jack’s betrayal. She willingly gives up her room, enters the Dragon Trials, and wins the Sacred Water. Then she tears out her dragon horns, breaks with her family, and declares herself a Dragon Sovereign. With help from Andre, the son of the Dragon Sovereign, Vivian builds a castle of her own. Meanwhile, Erin successfully takes dragon form, but her greed only grows. She forces Will and Lucy to build her a castle, leaving them prematurely aged and badly injured. She even invites mortals to humiliate her parents, until Lucy loses control and kills someone, bringing disaster down on them. Erin conspires with Jack to trigger an avalanche that kills Will and Lucy. At the funeral, Vivian reveals the truth, using a memory crystal to expose Jack’s crimes. Jack is executed. Erin is stripped of her dragon status and left to wander as a mortal. Vivian finds love with Andre, who has also been reborn, and begins a new life.
