Anastasia "Stacy" Drakethorn is a lawyer with a secret-she's the heir to a powerful supernatural dynasty. When her mother's tragic death leaves a power vacuum in the city's paranormal hierarchy, Stacy must step up and take her rightful place as leader.

With enemies lurking in the shadows and her own powers awakening, Stacy must navigate a treacherous landscape of politics and magic. Guided by her trusted allies and the wisdom of her dragon father, Khan, she embarks on a journey to claim her birthright.

The path to leadership is fraught with danger. Stacy must confront not only the threats to her city but also the ghosts of her past and the weight of her legacy.

Will Stacy rise to the challenge and become the leader her city needs? Or will the weight of her destiny and the machinations of her enemies overwhelm her?
