The Dragon Emperor's Sacrificial Bride

Elara was the disfigured, bullied illegitimate daughter of the Vance family, ruthlessly used by her uncle as a scapegoat and sacrificed to the abyssal dragon in exchange for the family's safety. Yet in the abyss, Elara was not devoured. The ancient mark hidden in her blood unexpectedly awakened the slumbering dragon emperor Kaelen, and the two forged a soulbound contract that bound them to life and death. The contract's power stripped away Elara's hideous scars and restored her breathtaking beauty. While the Vance family held a victory banquet celebrating their escape from crisis and the disposal of their wicked daughter, Elara returned in triumph alongside Kaelen — now in human form, wielding overwhelming power. From a death sentence to the ultimate cheat, Elara maneuvered step by step. Under Kaelen's absolute devotion and brutal military might, she tore off the masks of her hypocritical family and embarked on a thoroughly satisfying journey of revenge and redemption.
