Fate brought them together, will destiny tear them apart?

Lord Sylvin of the Silver Dragon has two missions in life, to keep and protect the Lady Yelena of Elliard, and to fill the gaps of his past. To do the first, he trains as a knight with the Fae Kings army, and in their war against the humans, wins honours, titles, and land – but the years apart from Yelena do not come without a cost, and when he returns, it is with a mistake that both holds promise for their future together, and threatens to destroy it.

Mated to The Dragon Lord

　　She would prefer to fight off another band of marauders, muck out the pigpen, or spend the day scrubbing the entrance hall to picking through people she had known for most of her life, deciding who amongst them to treat, knowing that she could not treat all. She could not ignore the Fae that had arrived with Sylvin, either, she knew, because he owed them a duty of care, and so, by extension, did she.


　　How had it spread so far so fast? She wondered in despair. Her father had been unwell for over a year and tended by many of the Fae of the household, and yet none had become ill. Could an illness suddenly change and become contagious where it had not previously been? Or did the illness originate from another source? Polluted water, infected food, some type of household pest…?


　　It had taken four hours and exhausted her to heal her father. Would it take as long for each of the sick in the nursery? Could she heal more than one?
