Yet, he’s getting restless, so he heads under water when he receives a summons from the Triton King. Marigold Tidal is ready to be crowned queen. She’s spent years preparing to take the Triton throne. So why is her uncle offering the job to a cocky bird shifter? And more importantly, why does she find him so infuriatingly attractive?
