Consort of the Dragon King by Ariella Zoelle

At long last, King Kitsuki’s fated mate returns. Can they overcome the dangerous threats and form a mating bond before it’s too late?

After six hundred agonizing years, Kitsuki’s intended has finally returned to him. Their reunion is full of joy and sorrow, as the once light-hearted prince is now a stoic, battle-scarred king. The chasm between who they were in the past and who they’ve become threatens to shatter their reclaimed love.
As rival suitors seek to destroy Kitsuki’s tentative new relationship with his beloved, it has never been more important for him to claim his bondmate in a Royal Consort Fatebonding ceremony.
In a world on the brink of war, can Kitsuki and his fated mate overcome the heartache of the past and the perils of the present to finally find happiness together?
