### Backstory

##### Before events of the comic

Sharley was born to Azad and Kacece in the dragon kingdom. Her father, Azad was a miner so he wasn't home very often. Sharley was closest with her mother, who was a gardener, being an earth dragon. She attended the dragon temple school and a few years after graduation, she helped her mother with her garden job. One year later, they got a letter saying that Azad had died in a cave-in while mining for gems. Kacece was so heartbroken, she stopped caring for her garden and even declined flower orders from others. Sharley did her best to help out, but it was hard since she wasn't an earth dragon. Then, she decided to look for a job in the palace and become a maid there. After a few years serving in the palace, Sharley often ran into the two princes, but never paid much attention to then except bowing and nodding greetings from time to time. Back home things had started to get back the way they we're. Kacece was still sad, but she had returned back to care for her garden and was starting to take orders again for others gardens as well. A little while after prince Max was crowned king, Sharley accidentally bumped into him on the hallways and the two met officially for the first time. They saw eachother often after that and even had some interesting conversations with one another. Sharley was starting to have feelings for the young king, but she knew she could never have him. He was a king and she was just a maid. They can never be nothing more. But then, one day Sharley's dreams came true. King Max came to her and told her that he was in love with her and Sharley told him she felt the same. It didn't take long before they we're married and Sharley became queen. When the topic of heir came, Sharley and max tried but for some reason, she couldn't get pregnant. Until one day, she felt something inside her stomach and once she was sure, Sharley told Max she was expecting.

##### In Flames Temptation

Sharley was in the throne-room with Max, when Flames returned from his lesson with Kelden. She greeted him and praised him for doing well on his hunting lesson. That night, Max talked with Sharley about Kelden’s idea to send Flames to school so he can be with dragons close to his age, so he can have friends. Sharley had the idea to invite Lorenzo, the captain of the royal guard and his family to dinner, saying that he has a daughter, who is the same age as Flames.

The next day, Sharley walks towards the throne-room, when she heard shouting and ran inside to find Flames arguing with Max. When Max shouted at Flames, Sharley wanted to go to Flames, but Max’s stare stopped her. She later joined Flames in his room and comforting him telling what he did wrong. Sharley took Flames to meet the captain’s family, when they arrived.
