Young girl + dragon

Im not quite sure if im mixing up two different books together, but i remember this one scene, where an older lady (an elite) is pretending to be good but is in fact evil, she puts these bracelets on the mc girl which forces the girl to do exactly as she is told against her will. As a demonstration of this power she forces the girl to lick the feet/sandal of her son(s?). Otherwise she leaves the girl to work with her servants.
Im fairly certain the girl is friends with a dragon, a young one who cannot fly very far or cannot carry her far.
I think she met the evil lady in a secluded or secret area where she was being taught magic before she was enslaved.
I believe the girl is part of a prophecy including the dragon friend.
Unfortunately this is all I can remember due to how i remember questioning the slavery part in what im sure was otherwise a children's book. (just seemed a bit more explicit than i was expecting)

It doesn't ring a bell for me, but you might want to include some more context if you can - do you know approximately what year you read it? Was it newly purchased, or a library book/something you borrowed from a relative? Were you living in the US? Canada? Etc.

Sometimes the circumstances can help someone pin down a title even when the description is vague

Good luck, and I hope someone can find it for you!

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3041593-the-dragon-s-child has some elements...

https://www.bookwitty.com/product/dealing-with-dragons/97805445412210000000 has the dragon-friend aspect, but probably nothing else.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Starlighter-Dragons-Starlight-Bryan-Davis-ebook/dp/B003CMS1E0 has people enslaved to dragons...

Drat, need to leave off searching now... Good luck!

It's definitely not Dealing With Dragons.
