Part of Dragon Kin, book 0.4
First published 2015
Glheanna the Decimator has built her reputation as a fearless dragon warrior. She knows battle, blood, and victory. She does not know public humiliation until a bastard dragon dumps her in front of her own troops. Glheanna retreats to her cave to drink away the shame in proper family fashion. The Dragon Queen has other plans. Her Majesty assigns Glheanna to escort the highborn Bram the Merciful through dangerous lands. The mission galls her. She trained for war, not babysitting diplomats who prefer negotiating with enemies over fighting them. Bram intends to make peace with hostile dragon clans rather than crush them. Still, the diplomatic dragon catches her eye. His handsome features prove a welcome distraction from her wounded pride. Glheanna begins to wonder if mercy might have a place in her violent world after all.
