Kiss the Filthiest King by May Sage

Long live the queen. If she makes it to her throne in one piece.

Almost every leader of every court has tried to hunt Darina down for a chance at either killing or controlling her.
Now, forcefully snatched from death, Darina is something else entirely.
No longer prey, but still a target, the new queen must navigate the amongst rulers who have lived without restrictions for a thousand years, and don’t believe they need a high queen.
Half of Ilvaris is offended by the marks on her skin showing a firm allegiance when a high queen ought to be impartial. The other half might still murder her for sport.
She needs to prove her neutrality, her worth, her right to exist and rule.
All of that with a mate who doesn’t want her by her side.

Kiss the Filthiest King concludes the duet featuring Darina and Ryther.
