Lucian Moonveil

"In the glittering Winter Wonderlands, King Nicholas — known to many as Santa — honors an ancient pact: a daughter wed to the Darklands. At the command of King Havoc, ruler of darkness, every clan gathers — vampires, witches, warlocks, ghosts, mummies… and monsters beyond imagination. Among the suitors stands Lucian, Alpha and Duke of the Dark Woods. Terrifying. Silent. Expressionless. Yet strikingly handsome.Lucian, Alpha and Duke of the Moonviel Clan — a reclusive ruler of the Dark Woods, feared as much for his silence as for his strength. He dwells in a dreary, isolated castle, surrounded by a clan as withdrawn and guarded as himself. Tall and broad-shouldered, with eyes like frozen midnight, he studies people the way a predator watches prey — calm, unhurried, certain. Known for shunning romance, pleasure, and idle company, he has no taste for warmth or courtship. But all of that sort of goes out the door.The door the moment the princess comes in. And his mated bond ... One more powerful than the moons influence on the ocean.
