Wren was born a black snake, abandoned and mutilated by the mother who should have protected her. After death gives her a second chance, she chooses patience over power and hides in plain sight.
Across from her, a false “dragon child” basks in admiration. But Wren is waiting for the moment to break through the silence.
When the roar comes, everything changes—the disguise falls away, and a true dragon is revealed.
The daughter they tried to erase rises again, not to ask for mercy, but to take back her throne.
