"If life is meaningless no matter where you are..."
Rita has never belonged. A lonely boy in a village that barely tolerates him, he knows exactly why he's been chosen as the "Dragon's Bride" — it's not honor, it's one less mouth to feed. The ancient legend of the Snowy Mountain Dragon is just that: a legend. Everyone knows it. Rita accepts his fate and walks into the frozen wilderness expecting to die.
He doesn't.
Instead, he's saved by Ignat — a breathtakingly beautiful dragon in human form who is very much real. Rita's eyes light up. He can finally fulfill his role. He can be a bride. But Ignat's response is cold: "I don't need a bride."
Rita refuses to give up. Stubborn, warm-hearted, and fearlessly devoted, he slowly chips away at the walls Ignat has built over centuries of solitude. As Rita uncovers the secret ritual that transforms humans into dragons, he faces an impossible question: how far is he willing to go for someone who won't even admit they need him?
Bride of Ignat is a fantasy BL romance that will heal your frozen heart — a story about finding meaning in connection, even when the world has convinced you that you're disposable.
Perfect for readers who love: Boys Love (BL), fantasy romance, dragon mythology, non-human romance, slow-burn devotion, sacrifice tropes, award-winning manga, stunning art, emotional storytelling.
