The Blood Race

“Sebastian said he’s going to break me.” Alexandria lifted her chin. “I’d rather die.”
“Want me to go back and kill him?” Gavin jerked his thumb over his shoulder. “Because I would absolutely do that.”
He stepped closer, gently brushing the dirt from her cheek.
“Wouldn’t want to risk shining your armor,” she teased.
......................................................................................................
Four years ago, I slept with a stranger.
Left before sunrise.
Never even asked his name.
Nine months later, I had his son.
Now someone is coming for my child.
Because I’m the missing princess. The King wants my power, my bloodline, and my freedom.
My only way out?
Enter the Blood Race.
Survive its trials.
Win.
Then I spot a man across the starting field.
Dark hair. Silver eyes.
The same eyes my little boy looks up at me with every morning.
His name is Gavin Lockwood.
He’s a dragon. The Queen’s guard captain.
And somehow, he can feel my fear. My pain. Every desire I’m trying to hide.
But he doesn’t know about our son.
What will he do when he discovers who I’m fighting to save?
And with my power awakening, how long before the other competitors stop racing for the crown and start hunting me?
