Fire And The Forgotten Queen: A Dragon Shifter Romantasy of Hidden Royalty and a Possessive Dragon King

What if the woman marked as a curse is the only queen who can save the dragon court? Elena Hart has spent her life hiding in the ash markets, surviving on instinct and keeping her strange sensitivity to flame buried. But when a public execution awakens a power she was never meant to reveal, the Onyx Court discovers what history tried to erase: Elena carries the lost queen-fire of a murdered royal bloodline. King Adrian Vale should destroy her. Court law says Hart fire is treason. His dragon says she is his. Dragged into a ruthless world of dragon lords, blood oaths, stolen names, rival clans, and ancient court lies, Elena becomes the one secret the Onyx throne cannot control. The more Adrian tries to protect her, the more dangerous their bond becomes, because smoke recognises fire, and his dragon recognises her as the one woman forbidden to him. But Elena is not the curse the court has feared for twenty years. She is the witness they failed to bury. As assassins close in and ancient magic wakes beneath the mountain, Elena and Adrian must decide whether their forbidden bond will save the court or burn it down. To survive, Elena must stop running from the crown that destroyed her family. To love her, Adrian must learn that possession is not protection, and that a true queen can only rise by choice. Fire and the Forgotten Queen is a dark dragon shifter romantasy featuring hidden royalty, a possessive dragon king, fated mates, court betrayal, ancient blood magic, fierce romantic tension, and a complete HEA/HFN romantic arc.
