Zelenka thought she'd earned her freedom after half a millennium of playing the perfect monster to the Viper Goddess. Centuries later, Zelenka is now little more than a myth as she hides in an ancient library until viper hunters discover her. Word gets back to her bloodthirsty sisters, and they want her back. Dante, Kian, and Naveed aren't just normal hunters. They're descendants of the Dragon Goddess, and they're used to setting traps for vipers. But when they learn Zelenka was turned by the Viper Goddess herself, they see an opportunity to learn all they can from her in exchange for helping her get rid of her sisters. As unlikely allies, Zelenka and Dante have to pull off the trick of a lifetime, but lines blur when Zelenka gets a taste for her hunters' blood, and they get a taste for hers.
