A powerful dragon lord confronts a human woman who entered his domain. He recognizes her scent and a mole identical to a woman who saved him a century ago during his rut and then vanished. The woman, unable to harm him, is confused by his fixation. He concludes that regardless of her memories, he will not let her leave. He forces a decision, offering a 'Breeding Covenant' sealed by drinking his blood or threatening to tear her apart.
