The Purge doesn’t care what I’ve survived. It only cares who’s left standing.
I’m the Dominant Dragoness of an entire continent. Heir to the Marzana Throne. Bonded to five mates who’d burn the realm to ash for me.
I’ve clawed my way through enemies, politics, and prophecy—and I’m still here. But year three at Dragonis Academy isn’t impressed. The Purge is coming. Every third-year knows the name. Few speak it.
It’s not a test—it’s a hunt. A brutal culling where alliances mean nothing, mercy is a death sentence, and only the most vicious walk out alive. Some don’t walk out at all.
And this year, someone plans to turn it into a massacre. The traitor who’s hidden among the academy staff for decades is done waiting. Done watching.
They’re ready to strike—and the chaos of the Purge is the perfect cover. I don’t know their face. I don’t know their endgame. But I know they’re close. Closer than I ever feared.
A diplomatic mission with my mother. Alliances with Queen Giselle of the Eastern Isle and King Cassius of the Southern Isle. A hatchling who needs me to come home alive.
None of it matters if I don’t survive what’s coming. The enemy wears a familiar face. The killing field is set.
Welcome back to Dragonis Academy.
