Naughty or Nice

When the potent spirit of punishment wanders too close to a beacon of light, he finds himself drawn into a world he thought he had long left behind. It had been centuries since Asher had longed for the sweetness of connection, for the feeling of the life he once had. Before him stood a human woman, dedicated to her Sweet-n-Sinful bakery, but around her was a swirling storm of chaos that was slowly poisoning the small town of Frost Hollow. Krampus had never found himself one to seek out love or comfort. But when Maya uttered his name, he found himself wanting nothing more than to be near her. Even if it means being thrust back into the claws of his curse.

As Frost Hollow's safety begins to spiral closer to the point of no return, Asher begins to catch a familiar scent in the air-one that drips with the very power that courses through his blood. Maya stood before him like a beacon of light; he found himself unable to leave her side. Darkness was quickly becoming a constant companion around Maya, but so was Asher. And he isn't willing to let it swallow her or the town of Frost Hollow the same way he was over 600 years ago.
