King's Ruin: Hestaesia: Book Six

Demon king Zelrus Dawnoaken’s entire life has been geared towards defeating King Lazuli and freeing his people from the shackles of faerie oppression. He has lived for little else.

He learns of an inescapable destiny that awaits him as a royal blooded demon - a fated woman who is to become his queen. The demon kings that have come before him have each fallen on their own swords, desperate to protect their queens. Keen not to repeat history, Zelrus eschews all ideas of a mystical fated mate, believing himself strong enough to resist her call.

A queen spells certain death, and the defeat of his army. Unfortunately for Zelrus, fate has other plans.

Jayla, a demoness handmaiden working in Rosenhall castle, has no idea what is in store for her when the demon king arrives with his army. Her humble life is turned upside down as she is thrust into a world of blistering desire, deception and danger.

Will Zelrus follow in the footsteps laid down by the unsuccessful kings before him, or will true love prevail?
