Titan

The Dark Kingdom, Book 2

By: Shantel Tessier

Narrated by: Alex Kydd, Kasi Hollowell

TITAN
I know I have a black soul. Bloodshed and danger are what I live for. A King is supposed to rule his Kingdom using any means necessary to demand respect.

I’m not a weak man. A King kneels to no one.

I’ve only ever cared about one other person in my life, but the thing is, she never belonged to me. And before I could tell her how I felt, she left.

Now she’s returned, needing someone to save her. Emilee York was always meant to be mine, and I’ll see to it that happens. I always get what I want, even if that means I have to take it.

And she’s no different. She’ll be my queen, one way or the other.

EMILEE
When I left Sin City behind me, I had no plans to return. I avoided everyone, even my friends, to stay in my bubble. I’ve always been the kind to pull away and run when things get difficult.

But one phone call changed everything, and I was racing back. If only I had known what was waiting for me.

Titan reappeared like a ghost haunting me. One look and I knew he recognized me. I never forgot him or what we shared. Those feelings that no one else knew existed between us.

I ignored them back then, but now they are more intense than ever. “Get on your knees…” He demanded I kneel for him.

I tried to act like he didn’t affect me, but he knew. He remembered the way I reacted when he would touch me. And just like he was taught to do—he used my weaknesses against me.

He staked his claim, and I became his queen to use how he saw fit. What makes it worse is that I crave him, and when I kneeled, it was willingly. But was it for nothing?

Titan is the second book in The Dark Kingdom Series and can be listened to as a standalone. Due to mature content and themes, this audiobook is recommended for listeners aged eighteen and over. This novel may contain triggers.

Re-listen *contains spoilers*

I read this series 3 years ago so when the audiobooks were released, of course I had to do a re-listen. Titan was one of my favorites, although bones is my number one, I definitely picked up a few different things listening than I did reading or maybe I just blocked them out. I’m a Scorpio so I’m a grudge holder, when he told her that she wasn’t anything special and never wrapped back around to that it did piss me off a little bit. I remember being irritated back then and I am re-irritated now. Still loved the book and the characters but low-key wanna punch Titan for saying that. Also bones off-ing the Dad and George is why that man will always have my heart.

Loved

It’s been so long since I read this book I forgot how much I loved Titian and Em. Titian is my kind of dark and gritty book boyfriend. I’m so glad this series is on audio now. I am falling in love with these characters all over again!

Dark & twisty

Love the character connections and interactions! The plot twists and all their glory! Can’t wait to start the next book!

I love my Lords and Spade Brothers but The Kings 👑(mainly Titan ... so far at least......)

I thought I would mostly excited for Bones' boo on audio. I was starting this series on ebook but got the newsletter that this series was getting recorded I had to wait and so happy I did... And sooo happy Shantel Tessier has kept with Duet Narration. Titan... I didn't think a character could near the top of my favorites where the Lords and Spade Brothers firmly sit but Titan has passed a few of the Lords IMO. 🤷‍♀️

Also. I have heard these narrators before they did AMAZING!! And I have few new favorites there also

Titan is big older softie when it comes to Emily and it is too cute and sweet.

Now for the dislikes... just a few a maybe the next books will fix one or two of them.

Spoilers ahead! 👑




I feel like some of the plot was not wrapped up. How did they find George? What happened and what was said in the conference room? maybe some of these will be answered in the next books

We didn't we get a confession of love from Emily to Titan 😭 and after the Palace Titan I bet had the best proposal.

Yaasssss Queen!

Amazing from start to finish! Narrators were also awesome!

It is missing the last chapter (42) which gives us the closure of what Nick did and why! I have the book so I was able to read it but it is a pretty important chapter. Hopefully that gets added but otherwise, I loved it!
