When dragons appear and commit unspeakable acts, I should be dead. Instead, I'm pulled into a centuries-old rebellion by Fenric, who insists I'm the key to ending an immortal king's reign.

There's just one problem: I'm nobody. A miner from Xardon who spent six years hauling shadowstone and keeping my head down.

Except in the fae realm, my blood does things it shouldn't, and the prophecy everyone keeps referencing says I'm something I can't possibly be.

The worst part? I'm stuck with Cairos—an arrogant, cocky dragon-shifter with centuries of murder in his past and an infuriating smirk that makes me want to strangle him. He's complicit in the very atrocities I'm trying to stop, and I should hate him.

So why do I feel so inexplicably drawn to him?

To protect my family and stop the cycle of death, I'll have to trust a monster, uncover what I really am, and get close enough to a king to destroy him.

But the closer I get to the truth, the more I realize:
Everything I thought I knew about myself was a lie.
