I am the dragon

At the tender age of sixteen, Lucas Grey assumes the responsibility of caring for his younger sisters after uncovering the truth behind their parents' untimely demise. His primary objectives are to shield his siblings and track down the person responsible for their loss. During his journey, Lucas encounters his fated half-bonded partner, Rylee. However, their reunion is marred by pain and mistrust. A brutal attack forces Rylee into hiding, causing Lucas to bear witness to her haunting nightmares. Despite their powerful connection, Rylee's heart is guarded, fearing love, while Lucas remains stubborn and slow to forgive. As fate intertwines their paths, they struggle to reconcile their bond with the actions that drive them apart. Lucas strives to lead his family and protect them, while Rylee questions her own past. In a heated moment, Lucas taunts her, "Look how easily you respond to me," as he asserts his dominance. In retaliation, Rylee's anger flares, and she slaps him, saying, "I despise you," before retreating to the bed. Lucas yells back, "You hate me? I恨你 too!" Accusations fly between them, with Rylee accusing Lucas of not believing her story when he claims to have seen her with another man after a night of confusion. Rylee坚决地回应道, "You demand I accept your version, yet you refuse to acknowledge mine?" She maintains her innocence, stating, "I know who I am, and I would never engage in such a liaison with a stranger." Lucas counters with the harsh reality of what he witnessed, leaving their relationship strained and uncertain.
