Nicolas Matesscu has always been the shadow of the Royal family-a son who seemed destined for nothing more than obscurity. As the youngest of the King's male children, he never quite belonged in a court built on raw power and expectation. With magic coursing through his family's bloodline, there was little room for the son who couldn't live up to their legacy, especially when it became apparent that he preferred men. But everything changes when he's chosen to wield the elements of water and weather, a birthright and a curse. In an attempt to carve out a place for him and meet his father's unyielding demands, Nicolas is sent to the notorious School of Solomonari, where only the strongest survive. Against all odds, he returns triumphant, a supposed master of his abilities-finally earning the affection and respect he's spent his life chasing. Just as his life begins to resemble something like happiness, fate deals a cruel blow. A savage lycan horde-composed of the very slaves his father created, led by the ruthless warlord Alpha-descends upon his family, leaving Nicolas as the lone survivor. Nicolas is taken prisoner by the man who tore his world apart and forced to become a servant himself. Now, his once-proud city teeters on the brink of ruin, and the forgotten Prince stands as the last hope for his people. But when the world turns its eyes on him, the truth threatens to destroy him: the dark secret that he cheated through school is on the verge of being exposed. Nicolas must tap into a power buried deep within himself to survive and preserve what little is left of his family's legacy. But the real question remains: is a legacy forged in blood worth saving, or has it all been a lie from the start?

"You like it, baby?" Ambrose purred in Kyree's ear, "I picked the colour out just for you, remembered just how much you like it on me," Kyree groaned as Ambrose caught his earlobe between his teeth, biting down hard enough that he knew there would be a mark. "Out," Kyree demanded the tailor, pleased with how fast the little man scuttled from the room. The second Kyree heard the door click shut, he pressed Ambrose against the wall to the left of them, covering the demon's mouth with his own. Ambrose complied with a soft moan and a tug of Kyree's hair, his other hand clutching the lapel of Kyree's suit, as if holding himself up for fear his knees may buckle. Kyree's mouth trailed down Ambrose's neck, leaving one deep purple bruise after another across his demon's tanned skin. Ambrose's mewls and purrs were loud, then again, Ambrose always was loud, he knew it turned Kyree on. Kyree was marking his lover, knowing that all eyes would be on them tonight, he wanted everyone to know what was his. "Mine," he murmured against Ambrose's abused flesh, nipping at the place just below his lover's jaw, marvelling in the primal groan that resonated through him. "Yours," Ambrose agreed, his chest heaving as his breath got taken from him by another quick nip across his throat from Kyree, "forever, baby," Kyree took a step back, admiring the myriad of mauve marks littered across Ambrose's throat. Purple was Kyree's favourite colour on Ambrose... {Book One of the Inamorate Series} This book is dedicated to my editor, illustrator and best friend Daisy for always being there for me and putting up with my shit. {Credit to her also for the cover art and all illustrations throughout}.
