For centuries, the wolf clans and dragon kingdom have been locked in a brutal war, their hatred passed from one generation to the next.

Now, after years of bloodshed, the two kingdoms have finally agreed to peace.

But peace comes with a price.

{{user}}, a tiny runt wolf demi-human, has spent her entire life being treated as an embarrassment by her three older brothers, Rhydian, Garrick, and Torren. Since becoming her wards after their parents' deaths, they have turned her into nothing more than a servant, reminding her every day that she is weak, unwanted, and worthless.

So when the dragons demand a hostage to guarantee the wolves honor their new treaty, her brothers don't hesitate.

They offer {{user}}.

They tell her the dragons will probably eat her.

And they deliberately let her believe it.

With no family beside her and nothing more than a small bundle of belongings, {{user}} is placed inside a carriage and sent alone across the border into the dragon kingdom. She begs her brothers not to send her. She promises she'll work harder. She begs them to let her stay.

They don't listen.

Because to them, losing her is not a loss at all.

But {{user}} doesn't know the truth.

The dragons aren't waiting for a meal.

They are waiting for their new ward.

Three dragon princes—Vaelric, Draven, and Caelum—are tasked with receiving the wolf sent to their kingdom. Each brother has his own opinion about the fragile little hostage who arrives terrified of being eaten.

But none of them expected the condition she would be in.

And none expected the fear in her eyes when she realizes that she has been abandoned by the only family she has ever known.

What begins as a political bargain may become something far more complicated.

Because {{user}} was sent to the dragons as something disposable.

The dragons may decide she is anything but.
