Emergence

By Kim Knox

Life as Jaime Dalton knows it is over.

Come morning, she—the forbidden offspring of a human and a gryphon—will be owned body and soul by the First Dragon. He will control everything about her. What she wears, what she eats, when she sleeps. And with whom.

Determined to have a final fling, she seeks out the comfort of a stranger’s arms. Except he turns out to be…stranger than he first appears.

Kaden Rhodes knows what it’s like to be owned. Before he follows his orders to escort Jaime to the same fate, he can’t resist joining her in one last act of defiance.

Their connection is hot, fast, irresistible…and they’re playing with fire. Discovery will render them useless to the First Dragon.

And the useless end up dead.
