Love Bites Extra Hard by Lola Glass

I gave myself to the dragon king, prepared to become his mate to protect my sisters.
But that’s not why he wanted me.
He just needs my help breaking a prisoner in his cell, to keep his people safe. And he doesn’t want me to risk my life to do it.
When it becomes clear that’s the only way?
I take it upon myself to make it happen, and almost get myself killed.
That’s when the truth comes out:
I’m his fated mate.
But I won’t seal the bond with him. I can’t. No matter how I feel about him.
Because mate bonds?
They bite even harder than love.
