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

　　The young boys took the edge off the uncomfortable carriage ride, gradually becoming more comfortable with Yelena and chatting to her cheerfully. They were unusual lads, Yelena observed, perhaps due to their time at the Fae court, they were unintimidated by her title or her husband, unlike most of the children around the keep and village.


　　Two brothers and a cousin, they told her, but Tillie shushed them from saying much more.


　　Sylvin’s human slave woman was an enigma. She acted deferential, keeping quiet, hushing the boys whenever they got rumbunctious, and apologising frequently to Yelena, but she watched Yelena under her eyelashes with a gaze that was distinctly predatory and unintimidated, and occasionally, as the miles passed and they all grew weary of travel, there was something in her mannerism that made Yelena wonder if this slave girl had not been born into a noble human household before war had displaced her.
