Demon King's Bride - Elyrion Chronicles Book One
The Demon King's Bride - A Dark Fantasy Romance In a world where humans are nothing more than pawns in a supernatural game of power, Lyra becomes the ultimate prize-a stolen bride for a king who has not surfaced in centuries. The Demon King, Thorne Ashwyn, rules the Underworld with ruthless dominance, his power waning as his throne is threatened by ancient enemies. To secure his reign, he does the unthinkable-claiming a human through force. But Lyra is no helpless offering. Fierce, reckless, and filled with a fire that refuses to be extinguished, she is a woman who bows to no one, least of all a monster who seeks to own her. Trapped in a brutal, seductive world where monsters make the rules and betrayal lurks behind every shadow, Lyra must navigate the unknown. Her only weapon is defiance, but the more she fights, the more Thorne is determined to break her. And yet, beneath his cold cruelty lies something even more dangerous-a possessive, all-consuming obsession that threatens to burn them both alive. But when a greater evil rises-one that seeks to rip Lyra from Thorne's grasp and erase her very existence-she must decide whether to keep running or to embrace the darkness calling to her soul. Because in a world where fate is forged in blood and desire, surrender might just mean survival. A dark, addictive romance filled with enemies-to-lovers tension, forced proximity, and a dangerously seductive villain who will do anything to keep his bride.Complete

Dal's mother seems certain that there is a strange, simple solution to both their problems and those of Eidas'. Dal just has to marry the Prince of Eidas, Prince Tullvomm. Easy, right? Of course not. The Prince is nearly ten years her senior, and engaged to be married to the beautiful Princess of the East. She is nothing more besides a common girl from Bridgewater Avenue. Besides the obvious issues of his princess fiancée and her very un-noble birth, there's one other small little problem - Prince Tullvomm is never seen without his pitch-black wolf at his side - his beastly protector.

Dal realizes that to get access to the Prince she must either befriend the beast or slay him, and though part dog he may be, the beast doesn't seem the type to lie down and roll over. In fact, the more time Dal spends around the creature the less sure she is that he is a dog at all.Complete
