Rejected Mate of the Drakemount Dragons
(2026)(The third book in the Drakemount Academy series)
A novel by Nyx Rae
He threw her away in front of the whole academy. Now the gutter dragon they all discarded is the only thing standing between their world and the dark under it.
Kessa Blythewood came up the mountain to Drakemount Academy in a dead boy's boots, a late-woken Voidkin from the gutters of Aurelane, sent by a debt-broker to open a door and clear a ledger. She keeps her head down and her power hidden, because Voidkin sit at the bottom of the world and a girl who has been sold once learns never to be worth stealing. Then the fated bond lands — on Turrek, the academy's blackmailed prodigy — and he denies her to the whole hall to protect the lie he's built. She was made to be thrown away. She always knew it.
So she stops waiting to be chosen. She claws back stronger, tops the First Spire, and two alphas who won't let go close in while the one who rejected her cracks from the cold side of the bond he severed. But a broker's leash, a Council that wants her caged, and a song under the mountain that has been singing her name for three hundred years are all closing at once — because the rejected gutter girl is the key to a buried truth that could save the world or end it.
Three dragons. One murdered bloodline. A rejection that has to be undone in the same hall where it was made.
A spicy why-choose dragon-shifter academy romance with a rejected-mate glow-up, enemies-to-lovers heat, a morally grey dragon who burns his whole life down to win her back, and the reverse-harem HEA the whole saga has been building to. The explosive finale of the Drakemount Dragons trilogy. Standalone romance arc, complete series mystery resolved. No cliffhanger. 18+.
Perfect for fans of Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti's Zodiac Academy and the dragon-rider romance of Rebecca Yarros's Fourth Wing.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
