Captive (Igniting the Flame)

by Dani Matthews

Five years ago, the supernaturals went public and brought the world to its knees, bringing chaos and darkness to its streets. Even as the economy collapsed, I’ve managed to go unnoticed. All my life, my drakon heritage has remained hidden, and my mentor has helped me live free without the forced domination of a man. But when my luck runs out, my mentor makes the ultimate sacrifice, and I find my freedom torn from me. Soon, my worst nightmare begins to unfold, and I find myself sold to Lethe Cassavettes. He may be sexy, dangerous, and the man in charge of my freedom, but he can’t bend me to his will. I can’t be swayed by a sexy body, and I can’t be threatened into conforming to his clan’s expectations. When my escape plan goes awry, and I tap into the ability to wield fire—I become the most powerful female drakon of our kind. With this new power comes Lethe’s interest in claiming me as his. I don’t think the man has ever been denied anything, and I’m more than pleased to be the first. I refuse to give him what he wants—because all he wants is the power that I can give him. Belonging to a clan and taking on a mate means my life is essentially over. I thrive when living on the streets, and living on the edge is the only way I feel alive. I won’t let anyone take away my right to make my own decisions. No one is ever going to tame my independence. Not even Lethe Cassavettes. The underworld is rising…and so will I. Recommended for ages 18+ due to strong language and sexual situations.
