The Arena
Tana is a fire dragon, one of only four Elemental Dragons left in the world. For nearly a year, she has battled in the Arena, a supernatural gladiator fighting ring where you must fight to the death. Most die in their first competition. Others survive a couple of weeks. Only a few have survived as long as she has. Tana hid her true identity from everyone. If they knew what she was, her fate would be worse than the Arena.
Cedric, a Lycan, believed his pack would quickly rescue him and the other shifters after their capture by hunters. Left to fend for himself in the Arena, Cedric meets Tana. Together, they form a powerful bond and help each other survive. Cedric is convinced that Tana is his fated mate, assuming that she's an Alpha werewolf to have survived so long.
When they finally get a chance to escape, Cedric claims Tana as his mate, marking her in a night of passion. However, when he sinks his teeth into her neck, he feels a power like never before, and he realizes she is no werewolf. Confused and angry at what he considers a betrayal, Cedric leaves, only to return to find her gone the next morning.
One night of passion was all it took for Tana to become pregnant. Rejected by her mate, she forges a new life in the city for herself and her child, steering clear of werewolf packs in the hopes of avoiding Cedric's presence. But, unbeknownst to her, Cedric has been hunting for Tana since the night he left her.
What will happen when their businesses bring them back together, and he finds that Tana now has a daughter? Will he accept her? Or will he reject her again, leaving their bond shattered forever?

This review is purely for to the author;
Not so long ago but years ago when I read this one, when you only had contracts with apps such as GoodNovel or iReader, I longed for the day when you would finally have the ability to reach out to a bigger audience and that you where no longer stuck.
I squeald (yes, on the tube.. it was very embarrassing) when I saw that you had finally made it. For now you have 3 books out there, and I’m looking forward to the day when all your books are published.
All your stories, like this one, have the exact amount of everything that one could wish for. You’re not Jessica Hall, the most popular in this niche of category.
You are better.
(Sorry Hall, but your stories make me squeezy.)
For everyone else;
I highly recommend that you follow this author, as she has a lot of stories that will make you greedy for more!
Love you Copper❤️

I absolutely love Author Cooper, and I’m so glad I picked up The Arena! 🐉✨ It was such a great read from start to finish. One of the reasons I adored this book - and why I think you will too - is the author’s ability to draw you in and keep you fully engaged the entire time.
I love fated mates, I love dragons, I love werewolves, and I love a great plot… and The Arena gave me ALL of it! ❤️🔥🐺
The characters are lovable, the plot is intriguing, and the world-building is absolutely fantastic. I can’t wait to dive into the next book! 📚💫

Actually, I read this book a year ago. The plot was engaging, and some scenes were romantic—maybe even a bit steamy for my age, though it might have just been my imagination running wild. I really admire Tana. Her personality is so strong; she’s an independent woman, yet she also has a gentle heart. The author’s writing style is easy to understand and never boring.
Oh, I’ve even finished reading the series all the way to the part where Ancalagon has babies

While the writing was decent, and the story had a good plot, it felt rushed and didn't give a sense to build enough. I wouldn't buy it again
