The Dragon Is Mine, Not Hers
Mira's betrothed spent three years taming a wild dragon for their wedding—but he trained it to obey Lia, her family's adopted daughter. They took everything from her: her place in the clan, her inheritance, even her mother's dragon. When they demanded she kneel and wipe Lia's boots, Mira walked barefoot across burning coals instead. She broke the betrothal. Then a column of black war-dragons descended, and their lord claimed her—with a bloodwing dragon and three thousand acres of dragonland. He was the man who had waited eight years for her answer. On her wedding day, her old betrothed watched from the crowd as Mira married another man. And the dragon he had stolen finally threw Lia to the ground and flew home—to Mira.
Story Guide
Episode 1
Mira is supposed to be the happiest bride in Greymoor—until the wedding dragon turns on her. Three days before the ceremony, Garrett holds the taming feast, and the crowd cheers as Mira grips the reins. Then the dragon's tail slams into her chest and she falls into a coma.
Worse is what she hears while unconscious: her brother Kael saying the dragon was trained to obey Lia, not her. Piece by piece, Mira realizes Lia has already taken her place among the clan's dragon riders and her mother's inheritance. Garrett's plan is to hand over the dragon and soothe Mira with sweet cider and words.
She wakes with her mind made up. Hands shaking but eyes dry, she sends word to the man who has waited eight years: can his bloodwing dragon serve as a betrothal gift? She will marry him.
Episode 2
Chest still bound in cloth, Mira returns to the dragon field—and there is Lia in a brand-new crimson riding dress, mounting Dragoth in one smooth motion. The wild three-year-old stands calm beneath her, then rears with a roar, talons hanging right above Mira's head.
Lia offers to give the dragon back, but her hands never loosen the reins. Dragoth lowers his head to her palm, something he never did for anyone before.
Garrett, wearing the belt Mira stitched by hand, tells her to let Lia ride for now and that he'll tame another dragon when Mira heals. He calls her petty. Mira says nothing—but the crowd has no idea what this dragon truly means to her.
Episode 3
The dragon has a history no one in the crowd bothers to remember. Mira's mother was the only one in the family who ever loved her, and Dragoth was the only foal of her mother's dragon, Raith. After her mother died, Raith starved herself out of loyalty, and Mira kept the unweaned foal alive with the warmth of her own body.
Dragoth carried the memory of three people. He was her dowry and her mother's last gift—not just a wedding present to be handed around.
Everyone waits for Mira to cry and run, the way she always has. Instead she holds out her whip. "A good dragon deserves a good whip. Garrett gave him to you, so keep him." Lia's smile freezes. Garrett's face darkens—he has never seen Mira refuse to back down.
Episode 4
Lia accepts the whip and immediately wants more. Tilting her head, she proposes a new name: Miralia—Mira from Mira's name, Lia from hers—so "a piece of him stays yours too." Mira's mother had named that dragon herself.
Mira turns to Garrett, waiting. He considers it and approves: Dragoth sounds too harsh, Miralia is soft. He knew exactly where the dragon came from and who named him, and he lets it happen anyway.
Then he ruffles her hair and tells her not to embarrass Lia, promising cider later. Kael takes her arm and walks her home, siding with Lia too. Watching Lia mount and Garrett fuss over her collar, Mira gives up completely.
Episode 5
Past midnight, Garrett finally lifts the curtain and sets a pot of cider on the table. A faint perfume clings to the rim—Lia's, from the city. The pot is only half full, dried cider on the inner wall. Someone has already been drinking from it.
"Lia said this batch came out well. She told me to bring you a taste." Leftovers.
For eight years Mira believed him: the bond dragon had to obey her and no one else. Instead the dragon answers only to Lia, and Garrett thinks one pot of cider will make her smile again. She does smile—at how foolish she has been.
She sets the pot down. "Let's just break our betrothal."
Episode 6
Garrett doesn't take her seriously. His confusion turns to irritation: is this fun for her, an act? He throws eight years of his time in her face and says she is too old for games. Mira remembers him kneeling by her mother's sickbed, promising no one in this family would bully her. He became the one who hurt her most.
At the door he pauses: tomorrow is Lia's name day, so stop sulking, be sensible, and he'll give her the wedding she wants.
Then a raven taps at the tent, a scrap of parchment on its leg. The bloodwing dragon is tamed; the betrothal gift is ready. Say the word and he will come. Mira answers: "Come get me tomorrow. I'm ready to be your bride."
If you love a heroine who stops crying and starts choosing, this one's worth a binge—press play and watch Mira walk away.
