She is not supposed to be here, so how is she? This human woman, found outside my nest.

Is she from the sky like the metal crafts now flying around?

Is she from the forest where my enemies are?

Until she wakes, I do not know. And deciding what to do with her if she does…

That is going to be a problem.

Because if she is my enemy, I cannot let her leave, and if she is not…

The secrets I keep close can’t come to light.

But I will not kill her. I will not let a female—any female—come to harm.

So, I believe I only have one option…

I will need to convince her to trust me… to not fear me.

I will need to convince her to be MINE.

This felt like a strange filler that killed so much of the progress from the other books. The romance felt quick and less paced/developed, but I still enjoyed this one. I liked that he wasn’t all “mine” right away, and that we finally got to see female nagas. I anticipate getting back into the forest with the other nagas.

The only reason I gave this book as much time as I did is because the book I read before it, Cottonmouth, landed in my top ten of 2025. I kept waiting and hoping this one would finally take off and reach that same level for me — but unfortunately, it never did.

My main issue with this book is simple: nothing was happening.

The story is good, as usual, but I kind of hoped for an interaction between him and the previous Nagas. Also, is this the end of the series? Because I definitely need more!! 😭
