Book 2 in series

She invoked a forbidden law to escape forced mating.

Now she's pregnant. By herself. With a dragon egg. In a boardroom.

Xochitl Ketz is the most powerful dragoness alive — corporate lawyer, takeover queen, the first female to anchor a ley-line in six centuries. When the Rhyu patriarch tries to force a mating bond on her in front of the entire Dragon Council, she finds the one loophole nobody has used in living memory: the Genesis Clause, an ancient matriarchal right to create life from her own essence alone. It works. Mostly.

What she doesn't need is Rafael — a scruffy, infuriatingly perceptive fallen angel who lives in a van, talks to her egg, and has absolutely no business making her feel anything at all. No credentials. No surname. No sense of self-preservation. He also won't leave. And with Rhyu circling, she needs someone at her back who isn't afraid of her — even if that someone is the most inconvenient person alive.

The Genesis Clause always demands a price. And what the ancient texts don't say — what Xochitl is about to find out — is that the magic she invoked was never just about survival. It was always about something far older, far larger, and far more terrifying than anything the Council ever prepared her for. grumpy/sunshine forced proximity she doesn't do feelings he's annoyingly perceptiveancient matriarchal magic dragon politics explicit heat celestial mythologyfound family enemies of the patriarchy
