Needing the Kraken

A man on the run. A dangerous sea witch offering shelter. Nobody can know who Sebastian really is. Driven from his home and chased by the king’s henchmen, Sebastian runs into Malik, a sea witch and kraken shifter. At first he’s repulsed by Malik’s eight long tentacles, but with nowhere to go, Sebastian has no choice but to fling himself into Malik’s many arms. Malik is the mightiest witch in the New World. His magic grants him dark powers, but the one thing he can’t have is love—because Malik guards a deep secret. When Sebastian comes to him for protection, he grants it. As they grow closer, the pressure on Malik to reveal his best-kept secret mounts. But what if the truth sends Sebastian running into the arms of his enemies? That would be a disaster—Sebastian needs his dangerous kraken protector just as much as he needs those tentacles to wrap around him tightly and do unspeakable things to him.
