Things aren't always what they seem.

Caven is on the run. He was imprisoned for a good reason. But he has no intention of living behind bars for the rest of his life. So as soon as he had the chance, he left the Ogorth clan behind and headed for the human world.

But things there are more complicated than he expected.

Sebastian's life is perfectly normal until he stumbles on a murder. He runs, but when the murderer finds him, he thinks he's going to die, too.

And he almost does.

Even though Caven knows he shouldn't get involved, he helps the human escape. He's been yearning for home, and keeping Sebastian safe is as good an excuse as any other to go back to the clan and beg for their forgiveness. Even if Caven is stuck in a cell, at least he'll be home.

What Caven doesn't expect is to fall for Sebastian-or to get pregnant. It's the first step for the queen to realize there was more to his betrayal than she knew and that he's not the enemy he tried to be.

But with Caven's father disgusted by what Caven has done, Sebastian's family being possibly in danger, and the meeting with the government representative approaching, Caven and Sebastian are both entirely lost-and so very different. Can they make things work between them and raise the second human-dragon hybrid of the clan while also keeping the clan, Sebastian, and his family safe? Or is it too much for their shoulders?
