"The Long Night shrouds the world; the dawn is slow to come. Evil descends upon the land, leaving naught but ruin in its wake. He walks through the endless night, dances upon the edge of blades, swaying between the heavens and the abyss.

This delivery guy doesn’t just drop packages—he drops carnage. On a busted junkship floating in chaos, all Hawk wanted was a quiet delivery. Instead, the box explodes open with a cold-faced girl who’s not human, slices a squad of battle mechs in half, and then triggers a countdown to self-destruct. Now labeled as an S-Class defect by the System, Hawk’s dragged into a non-stop galactic meltdown—exploding ships, psychotic AIs, and sentient weapons running wild. No deep thoughts. No metaphors. Just one explosion after another, with Hawk’s mouth running faster than his legs, and a blade-slinging girl who skips talking and lets her sword do the subtitles. Want insane plot twists? Got it. Want hilarious one-liners mid-battle? Double down. Every chapter hits like an anime opening. This isn’t a mission. It’s a full-throttle space brawl. This isn’t sci-fi. It’s pure, unfiltered fun. Click in. Laugh loud. Stay for the mayhem.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: It's come to my attention that I accidentally set my privilege chapters to start too early, to make up for this (since I'm unable to change that) I've set up an 80% Privilege Chapter Discount launching May 2025 for all privilege tiers. I hope you still give my book a chance so that you can fall in love with the characters as much as I have while writing it. ABSTRACT: 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.
