The Last Touched: Rite of Queens

Giulietta
Elsbeth is the last touched, the Alpha of the 12th cursed pack of wolves, struggling to rebuild her life after her father, the former alpha, murdered the queen. To protect her people from her former mate—a dangerous and vengeful force bent on hunting them to extinction—Elsbeth must undergo the Rite of Queens, an ancient and powerful ritual that challenges the descendants of the bloodline to prove they can rule with strength and wisdom. In the Rite, Elsbeth is thrust into the past, inhabiting the life of her ancestor, the first queen, and the rightful heir to the throne. Born of a potent wolf bloodline, she is destined to ascend to the throne and lead the kingdom. But her world unravels when she uncovers a buried secret—she has a sister, Julia, a half-sibling born of fire and cast out long ago. Julia, a firefox-wolf hybrid, is not just a bitter reminder of their mother's betrayal; she is a living force of destruction, burning with unrelenting rage and power, and she’s determined to claim the throne for herself. As Elsbeth navigates this new life and rises in her rightful position, she is haunted by the bond she shares with Fen, her true mate. The mate bond is a powerful connection, one that threatens to consume her entirely. Elsbeth fears that if she surrenders too deeply to this love, she will lose herself, unable to fulfill her duties as queen and warrior. The idea of abandoning everything for the sake of love terrifies her, and the fear of being drawn into the mate bond’s pull is one she can’t ignore. Meanwhile, Julia is amassing an army, her flames of fury ready to burn the kingdom to the ground. Determined to reclaim what she believes is her birthright, Julia will stop at nothing to destroy everything Elsbeth holds dear. As Elsbeth’s responsibilities mount, the battle between the two sisters becomes inevitable—a clash of fire and wolf that could reshape the very fate of their realm. Caught between the loyalty to her people and the magnetic pull of her mate, Elsbeth must find a way to confront her sister’s growing power, protect her kingdom, and navigate the turmoil within herself. The future of the kingdom hangs in the balance, and Elsbeth must decide what kind of ruler she will be. Will she succumb to the love of her mate, or will she rise above, setting aside her heart to protect everything she’s sworn to defend? The Last Touched: Rite of Queens is a tale of family, power, and sacrifice. In a world where the fire of the past threatens to consume everything, Elsbeth’s greatest challenge lies in finding the strength to rule—without losing herself in the flames.

My Alphas' Dark Desires

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT I was eight when my world burned. My family was slaughtered; my home was reduced to ash. And the ones responsible? Gone. All they left behind was a black bandana embroidered with a nightshade thorn—a symbol of death. For ten years, I trained in the shadows. I became a weapon. Now, my hunt leads me to Prestige Supernatural Academy (PSA), the most elite werewolf school in the world—a place ruled by four Alpha heirs with too much power, arrogance, and dark desires. The night I arrive, I cross paths with Dristan, Kai, and Axel—heirs to the East, North, and West Alpha Kings. Arrogant. Vicious. Gods among wolves. They see me as nothing. A weak, powerless stray. They humiliate me, taunt me, overpower me— making me want to rip them apart. So, I make a vow: I’ll destroy them before they ever get the chance to destroy me. Then, on the eve of my 18th birthday, the Blood Moon rises. My wolf awakens. My power surges. And fate? That cruel, twisted bitch shackles me to all three of them. Mates. I want to reject them. I burn for them instead. And when I meet Xade, the wicked, silver-tongued heir to the Middle Belt Alpha King, the final bond snaps into place. Four possessive, dominant, and dangerously irresistible alphas. One vengeful, unbreakable wolf. And a deadly secret tying them to my past. Loving them could destroy me. Hating them could kill me. But in the end… who will ruin whom? And, fuck—why does my traitorous body want all four of them to do it? *************** “Say it.” Dristan’s voice was smooth and controlled in a way that promised devastation underneath. I swallowed hard, my pulse hammering as he cornered me against the desk. Kai was behind me, his warmth pressing into my back, his breath teasing my neck. Axel leaned in, lips curved in a sinful smirk, his hazel green eyes dark with amusement. “Say it, sweetheart. Say you don’t want us and we’ll let you be—maybe.” I clenched my fists. I wanted to tell them to fuck off—but my traitorous body? It was already betraying me.  My skin burned. My heart raced. My thighs clenched against the insufferable ache they caused just by existing. I lifted my chin, ignoring the heat curling low in my stomach. “I don’t—” “Liar.” The single word came from Xade, who had been silent until now. He was sitting in the professor’s chair, his crystal blue eyes burning into mine. He didn’t have to touch me. His voice alone was enough to undo me. He smirked, tilting his head. “You can fight it all you want, little wolf. But we can smell it.” Axel’s fingers traced the pulse at my throat. “Your heart’s pounding.” Kai’s lips brushed my ear. “Your body’s betraying you, love.” Dristan exhaled slowly, his gaze locked onto mine like a predator savouring its prey. “Your scent doesn’t lie, mate.” Fuck. My entire body was on fire. My legs trembled. My wolf purred in my head, eager to submit. I wouldn’t. I couldn’t. So, I did the only thing I could—I shoved Axel back, spun around, and tried to escape. I didn’t make it. Kai grabbed my wrist, yanking me back into his chest. I gasped, my palms slamming against his rock-solid torso. His golden eyes burned into mine. “Where do you think you’re going?” Axel was behind me now, his fingers sliding under my jaw, forcing my head up. “We’re not done with you, sweetheart.” Dristan smirked. “Not even close, mate.” "We're just getting started," Xade drawled. I was trapped. Caged. And the worst part? I didn’t want to run. ***************** Instagram: Baevidaa Join me on Discord: https://discord.gg/68t5Pv3Gmn BaeVida#7176
