Betrayed by his own brother and left for dead on the battlefield, Prince Arden flees into the ancient wilds of Elvarion. Bleeding, hunted, and alone, he stumbles into a hidden cave behind a waterfall — and finds more than just shelter. There, in the shadows, sleeps a silver dragon, long-forgotten by the world and cloaked in legend.

What begins as a desperate bid for survival slowly becomes something else entirely — a game of glances, guarded words, and shifting trust. Arden, used to control and command, finds himself at the mercy of a creature that could either save him... or devour him.

But the dragon watches. And waits. And listens.

While war tears through the realm and secrets fester at court, a fragile bond begins to form — forged in silence, sharpened by wit, and tempered by fire. And in the quiet of the cave, between blood and breath, a deal is struck. A pact that may turn the tide of war — or doom them both.

Because every dragon has a price.

And every prince has something to lose.
