Three years ago, the Zahryssar Empire saved the Northern Kingdom of Thalryn from absolute annihilation. In gratitude and desperation, Duke Veyrhold of Thalryn swore an oath: his daughter would marry the Serpent Emperor. The bride who fulfills this oath enters a world of scaled politics, venomous courtiers, and a husband whose serpentine nature is far more literal than metaphorical. The Serpent Emperor is not human. His court is a hybrid society where serpent-born and human-born coexist uneasily, and the human bride from the north is viewed as either a diplomatic asset or a political liability. The Emperor himself is cold, calculating, and operates by a moral code that humans find disturbing. But the bride who was given as tribute discovers that the Serpent Emperor's coldness hides a loneliness spanning centuries. His serpentine nature, which the world fears, is actually the source of his most tender qualities -- loyalty that never wavers, protection that never fails, and a love that, once given, is as permanent as the scales on his skin. The bride who was sold for political survival becomes the one person the Serpent Emperor would burn his empire to protect.
