Episode 2 - The Useless Bride, the Dragon King's Craving

Bound and cast into the sea on her wedding night, fox shifter Lyra expects death—not the golden eyes of Draven, the Dragon King every clan fears. He claims her as his fated mate, the same stranger who once pulled her from a frozen river. But their bond is barely sealed when her treacherous fiancé returns with a human army and stolen dragon scales, demanding Lyra back. Draven's court turns cold, whispering that a useless bride cannot guard a king's bloodline. Then the assassins come at midnight, and Lyra's frost power erupts for the first time, shattering a blade an inch from his throat. She is not helpless; she is a weapon he never asked for. Together they face a coup that would replace Draven with a puppet king, and Lyra must choose between fleeing to safety or fighting for a throne she never wanted. The Useless Bride, the Dragon King's Craving is a fantasy mini drama that turns sacrifice into strength. But can a mate bond survive when every ally is a hidden enemy?
