Claimed by the Ash-Born Orc Traitor: A Steamy Paranormal Orc Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798255238712)

He was the King's most brutal weapon. Now, he's the only monster standing between me and a slow, purple-veined death.

Claimed by the Ash-Born Orc Traitor is the high-heat finale to the Brides of the Citadel Orcs series. It features a touch-starved hero, an ink-stained scholar, massive size differences, and a fated mate bond so powerful it can shatter empires.

Vesper

I am an archivist, not a warrior. I was meant to live my life among ink and dust, hidden within the deep vaults of the Citadel. But then the Hollowed came. They came to burn the histories, and they came for the Echo Stone I've kept hidden in my pocket.

I expected to die in the smoke. I didn't expect him.

Vorian. The Traitor. The Obsidian King's legendary First Knight.

He is seven feet of scarred skin, battered iron, and pulsing slave runes. For a hundred years, he has slaughtered without mercy. But when he finds me, the "Voice" in his head turns to static. For the first time in a century, the monster is quiet.

He calls me his little mouse. He tells me he's dangerous. But every time his massive, clawed hands touch my skin, I don't feel fear. I feel a primal heat that makes my soul ache for his claim.

To save the mountain, we must journey into the heart of the Obsidian Palace to kill a King. But Vorian is fighting a war in his own mind. If he loses, he'll become a puppet once again, and I'll be the first one he's forced to destroy.
