Taken By the Alien Dragon by Stella Cassy

He betrayed his people for nothing…

Moddoc’s people can never know the reason for why he hesitated to sound the alarm during a devastating battle. When he falls into the clutches of human pirate Essie Black, he knows no one is coming to his rescue. Even though she’s his enemy, she lights a fire inside his cold dragon’s heart that he’ll have to ignore. And he’ll have to bide his time if he’s going to make it off her ship in one piece.

Her laughter brings destruction…

There’s no honor in picking over a fleeing army for the best bits of loot. Who needs it when there are drakons to capture? With Moddoc at her mercy, Essie will gleefully bring the Hielsrane to their knees. But when the tables are turned and the slave collar is around her neck, she finds herself on the steamy end of a scorching draconic seduction.

Moddoc has the kind of drive that Essie admires, and the drakon could learn a thing or two from Essie’s determined attitude. The longer they spend with one another, the more they realize their bond goes deeper than the tangled game of power and lust they meant to play. With Moddoc’s dark secret hanging over his head, the Pax might not be their biggest worry. If they are going to survive the anger of their allies and the ferocity of their enemies they will need to rely on each other and work together to carve out the shape of their own future.
