Rise of a Queen - Book 2

Book 2: Two years after losing her partner, Lamia has risen in MacTire and established an impressive empire. As a looming conflict threatens to engulf all kingdoms, unity becomes crucial for both shifters and humans to overcome the impending darkness. During her quest, Lamia encounters the formidable and cold-hearted King of the Bears, who imprisons her beloved father. Determined to save her father's life, she reluctantly finds herself locked in a battle of wits with the very being she dislikes – her second chance mate, a bear shifter. With no alternative, she reluctantly strikes a deal with the ruthless ruler, Mathias Artos, who governs Lonely City, a sanctuary for the realm's outcasts. Mathias, once uninterested in settling down, had his sights set on a harem rather than a chosen mate. However, the Moon Goddess intervened with a unexpected gift – a she-wolf, Lamia. Initially resistant, he soon discovers a deeper connection. As an old ally reveals their true identities, Lamia and Mathias must set aside their differences to confront the powerful enemy leading the devastating army that threatens to destroy entire shifter communities. As their past and present collide, they are forced to unite the shifting world against this共同 threat. Will their pride prove to be their downfall, or will Lamia and Mathias learn to tolerate and collaborate for the greater good? Only time will tell if they can conquer their enmity and bring down their common enemy.
