Asher never thought he'd meet the king of Cloud City, the legendary heir of the Black Lion Clan....

Since Asher's omega father died years ago and since his alpha father remarried, he has been having a hard time.

For one, his stepfather and stepbrothers treat him like a servant, there to do their bidding, running him ragged. Ash for the ashes he rolls in every day, they say.

And for another, while everyone leaves to go to the King's ball, Asher is left behind.

Asher has had enough. It's time for him to run away, make another life for himself. So he hitches a ride to the capital and finds a job in the palace, lying low until the ball is over.

His pixie godfather, however, has other plans for him. He dresses Asher up and sends him to meet the king.

And the king falls head over heels. Three nights of passion, as Asher's first heat hits, and by the time his stepfather realizes who he is and whisks him back to the family manor, Asher has a very real souvenir from the ball.

He knows that when his stepfather finds out, not only Asher himself but also his baby will be in danger.

What he doesn't know is that the king is already moving heaven and earth to find him. Will he get there in time?
