Drawing on mythical and life experiences, Lady Graell offers an approach to the art of dragon priestessing that bridges the magick of the elements to protecting and guarding the sacred treasure of your womb.

A fiery priestess. An ice cold dragon. An entangled destiny they cannot escape. As if being exiled and forced to give up her influential fiancé wasn’t bad enough, Suzume was ordered to marry a rock. The wedding symbolizes her becoming a priestess, serving the God of the Mountain. But as she approaches the altar to make her vows, her latent powers spark to life, destroying the sacred rock and releasing what’s inside, which isn’t a god, but a dragon. Five hundred years ago, the woman Kaito loved betrayed him & sealed him in stone. Now that he’s free, he wants revenge. Since his ex-lover is dead, he’ll have to settle for her reincarnation, Suzume, but simply killing her isn’t enough. He needs her to suffer. When Suzume uncovers the tangled threads of fate that bind them together, she resolves to kill Kaito or die trying. That is, if she can resist his charm. Making Suzume love him was all part of his wicked plan. But the longer he delays destroying her, the stronger the temptation of a fresh start becomes. Can he make peace with his past or will history repeat itself?

Once, Iola flew with a dragon. If she can become ambassadress to the dragons' realm, she might fly again, but first she must navigate life as an ordinary priestess. She’s wholly devoted to the dragons, but some of her fellow priestesses are dragon-blind and corrupt. Worse, they think that Iola’s devotions are actually just a sign of greed. The ambassadress returns from the dragons’ realm, too sick to fly again. Iola might have a chance to take her place, but her rival, Tiagasa, was raised in a prince's palace. Tiagasa thrives on political intrigue and gossip, and her lover is about to become governor of the city. Iola’s few friends and allies aren't much more savvy than she is. Still, they hope to persuade the new governor to make Iola ambassadress so that the temple cam be a true sanctuary of the dragons for a few years more.

The gems were glowing slightly, and Maria had them in front of her and said, “This is the wraith’s soul.” She had two gems sitting in front of her and then said, “And these are his power that he collected over his life. Theses gems are deadly, and if not handled correctly, they will kill the person who uses them. They are worthless and priceless at the same time.” The adventurers looked at her, and the leader said, “Worthless and priceless?” Maria grinned and said, “Well, a mage might want them because of the power they hold, and he might pay a lot for them. I don’t think they need to exist, and they should be destroyed so they don’t harm or cause harm. These two stones can kill you now.” Maria picked up one with a glove on her hand, and she held out her hand to the leader. She smiled and said, “Take it if you want. I wouldn’t do it though.”
