Touch of Flame

He is a threat to her existence. A hot-blooded dragon of Royal blood, King Malachi is taken hostage by the humans he despises so much. Deprived of his freedom, he is imprisoned in a dark cave, his rage growing with each day of torture and humiliation. The only light he sees comes in the form of a human female, offering her care. A woman who makes him burn with equal fury and desire. A woman who has no place in his heart or mind, for only one thought sustains him. Vengeance! And even if her kindness softens his heart and her touch sets his body aflame, she will not be spared his wrath. Because once he breaks the chains of slavery, he will burn down her whole world. She is the key to his freedom. The cold-hearted princess Ravina is a woman with a mission. Eradicate the dragon race from the face of earth. But when she finds out that the very creatures who killed her parents could also be the ones who kidnapped her sister, she has no choice but to change her plans. To find her sister, she must get closer to the creature she despises. But things don’t always go as planned and soon Ravina ends up finding more than she bargained for. Caught in a battle between humans and dragons, love and hatred, trust and betrayal, Ravina must make every choice with caution. And with every step she takes closer to the fiery beast, she risks melting the ice surrounding her heart and being consumed by the flames of fury and passion.

Tender

Ravina was glad to see that Malachi was back to normal. They chatted during breakfast and she managed to eat what she could. Now she only prayed it would stay in her stomach. 

"I'll make you lemon juice. I was told it is good for nausea," he said, standing up to take the tray with him back to the kitchen. 

"Thank you," she said and made her way to the privy room to freshen up while he was gone. 

When she stepped outside, he was already back and waiting for her in bed. She saw the lemon juice on the bedstand beside the medicine boxes he left behind. 

He turned his head, his brown eyes now back to their normal dark coffee brown. He must have renewed his skin as well because she was sure yesterday before he woke up, he was pale, and after he woke up...

Her heart skipped as she recalled what happened after he woke up. She hadn't even had time to think about the kiss and already this happened. Pushing the thought away, for now, she walked over.
