The Ice King's Mate

Gus, who is now the Ice King, has made his home in the frozen remnants of Jokull’s kingdom, where the curse that sustains him. The witch who cast the curse is long gone, but her magic lingers, weaving through his veins and promising him a queen. Yet for Gus, this power feels more like a slow unraveling than salvation.

Determined to reclaim what he once lost, Gus returns to his homeland with a bold request, one that shakes the kingdom to its core and puts Astra directly in his path.

Astra has no patience for talk of mates or love, and she has even less tolerance for the Ice King’s demands. Fierce and untamed, the griffin shifter sees Gus as a threat to the peace she’s sworn to protect. But when her loved ones’ happiness hangs in the balance, Astra agrees to confront him on his icy throne on her own terms.

Sparks fly and claws clash as Astra faces the king who’s as cold as the kingdom he rules. Yet beneath his icy exterior lies a fire that threatens to thaw her resistance.

Can Gus melt Astra’s walls, or will her defiance shatter his carefully constructed plans and his heart?
