Chapter 1

Kailun was prophesied to be the viper to destroy the dragon.

The dragon being the emperor, of course.

Hidden away to conceal the deadly truth of her birth, Kailun lives with her mother's bitter sister and her two spoiled daughters, forced to learn how to survive and fight for her own.

But when a dragon spirit leads her to the celebration at the palace that she was NOT supposed to attend, the prophecy begins to unravel. Kailun encounters the enigma of her past and becomes determined to find out who she was meant to be. A draft for war sends her to the battlefield disguised as a boy, and the dragon begins his hunt for his viper.
