The Rider's Dragon

Moments after he hatched, he was thrown into a sack. His pride as a dragon raged against the indignity and he fought back. The wounds he gave his captors earned him the name Nemesis, and the kindness offered at the hand of a half-elf slave earned him a partner. With Harper on his side, the pair set out to earn their freedom. They're determined to never be slaves again.

The invasion has come and Nemesis stands ready. He's been adjusting to his newfound relationships, but unwelcome guests on his doorstep are souring his mood. If he has to choose between annoying relatives and blood-thirsty orcs, Nemesis might just let in the orcs. Anything's better than Jaden. Harper has given him a reason not to fly off, yet the black dragon still contemplates the worth of his homeland. If it weren't for the love of his beautiful rider, he might just leave it all behind. For now, Nemesis is bracing himself for the fight of his life.

Having been offered the dubious salvation of a sect that worships his late mother, Nemesis finds himself in a position of having to decide who to trust, and who to kill. With his partners at his side, the black dragon will continue to advance his cultivation and grow in power.
