Dead Queens Don't Kneel Twice: Return of the Beheaded Empres
"Take her son away from that traitorous woman. She doesn't deserve to be his mother—and cut off her head!"
Those were the last words Queen Soranya heard as her son was torn from her arms, moments before the blade sliced through her neck.
She had once been the Luna Queen of Kethara and mother to young Prince Lucian. But her husband, Alpha King Valerius, had been cheating with his chief concubine, Yuna. Together, they fabricated charges of conspiracy and treason against Soranya because Valerius couldn't stand the sight of her.
Three years later, Soranya is reborn in the body of Nessa, a weak, wolfless girl beaten to death by her own father. She will not watch her son be raised to believe she was a monster. Everyone who played a part in her death will pay.
But returning will not be easy. The powerful warrior Beta Castiel had been Soranya's first mate, but she rejected their bond to marry the man she loved—the same man who ordered her death. Even inside her new body, Castiel can still feel the mate bond, making it almost impossible for Soranya to hide her true identity.
Something ancient and dark has attached itself to her since she clawed out of that grave. It lives in mirrors, watching, waiting. Sometimes her reflection shows her true face. Sometimes it shows something older, far more dangerous, with a heinous smile that promises destruction.
Can Soranya win back her son before he is lost to her forever? Can she destroy the king who murdered her? Will Castiel discover who she truly is through the bond? And can she stop the entity in the mirrors before it consumes the only second chance she has left?

Chapter: I WANT YOU AS MY LUNANESSA’S POVI stared back at him. I held his gaze. I didn't blink. I didn't flinch. I didn't look away."Lady Elan of House Marre," I said. "Mate to Warrior Beta Castiel of Valdenmoor. As you already know."He smiled. "That's not what I meant.""I don't know what else you want me to say.""I want you to tell me the truth." His fingers tightened on my chin. His grip was firm. Possessive. "I want you to tell me who you really are. Because I've been watching you, Lady Elan. I've been thinking about you. I've been trying to figure out why you feel so familiar.""I don't know what you mean.""You don't know what I mean." He laughed softly. The sound was cold. Mocking. "You stand there in front of me, looking at me with those cold, empty eyes, and you tell me you don't know what I mean.""I don't.""Liar."I said nothing. My heart was pounding. My hands were shaking at my sides. I pressed them flat against my thighs to steady them."Every single person in this courtyard looks at me with som

Chapter: YOU FEEL SO FAMILIARNESSA'S POVI watched the women scream and cry. I watched them beg. I watched them fall apart.And I felt nothing.They had degraded themselves for him. Stripped naked in front of thousands. Touched themselves while the crowd watched. Let him use their mouths, their bodies, their pain—all in front of everyone. They had given him everything. Their bodies. Their dignity. Their pride. Their souls. All for a throne. All for power.And now they had nothing.I didn't feel bad for them. They had made their choices. They had crawled to him like animals, desperate for his approval. They had let him humiliate them, hurt them, break them. They had watched him do the same to the women before them and still they volunteered. Still they begged.And now they were reaping what they had sown.Served them right.I watched Valerius laugh. I watched him spread his arms and declare himself untouchable. I watched the crowd shrink back in fear. I watched the women on the dais sob and shake and fall apart.A

Chapter: I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANTVALERIUS POVThe silence that followed was absolute.I could feel it. The weight of it. The confusion. The disbelief. The crowd didn't know what to do. They had come to see a choice. They had come to see a Luna crowned. Instead, they got nothing.Then the commotion started."What do you mean, none of them?" A voice from the crowd. A noble. Red-faced. Angry. "This is unprecedented! We traveled for weeks! Our daughters—"The first woman on the dais screamed. "You used us! You did all of that to us and now you say none of us?! I gave you everything! Everything!"The second woman was crying, her voice breaking. "This is insane! You can't just—you made us strip, you made us perform, you made us—and now you say we're nothing?!""We did everything you asked!" The third woman's voice was raw, torn from her throat. "Everything! I let you bite me, I let you claw me, I let you use me in front of everyone—and now you just throw me away?!"The fourth woman was sobbing, her words barely intelligibl

Chapter: NONE OF THEMVALERIUS POVI didn’t speak to her. I dragged her to the post, chained her facing it, arms high, legs spread and locked open with a spreader bar. A thick ball-gag was forced between her teeth and buckled tight. Then I took the single-tail and the cane.I worked her slowly. First the cane across the soft cheeks of her ass until both were dark red and swollen. Then the whip across the same marks until the skin broke in thin lines and blood beaded. Then the cane again across the backs of her thighs. Then the whip across her already marked breasts until she was sobbing continuously around the gag.I used my claws to score deliberate, shallow lines across the welts—enough to hurt, enough to bleed, not enough to cripple. Then I stood behind her, gripped her bleeding hips, and fucked her from behind in long, brutal strokes while the entire courtyard watched every wet, violent impact. She screamed into the gag with every thrust. The chains rattled. Blood and arousal ran down her thighs togeth

Chapter: YOU ARE OBJECTS, FLESH FOR TESTING. HOLES FOR USE.VALERIUS’S POVThe announcer’s voice boomed across the courtyard.“Honored guests! The final test has arrived! The Alpha King himself will now personally judge these five noble daughters! He will test their devotion, their willingness to serve, their complete surrender to his will!”I rose from my throne. The crowd went silent.I walked down the steps of the dais. My eyes moved over the five naked women standing before me. Trembling. Desperate. Already broken in spirit if not yet in body.Good.I stopped in the center of the stone platform and raised my voice so every noble, every servant, every watching pair of eyes could hear.“Bring me the kit.”A heavy wooden chest was carried forward by two guards and set at my feet. I flipped the lid open with one boot. Inside: coils of black chain, thick leather straps, iron gags, a selection of whips—single-tail, braided, weighted—clamps, hooks, a short cane, and a heavy leather collar with a short leash. Everything I needed.I looked at the f

Chapter: DISGUSTING DEPRAVITYNESSA'S POVI sat in my seat and watched the depravity unfold before me.The first trial had been bad enough. Women stripping naked, touching themselves, begging for Valerius's approval like he was some kind of god. I had forced myself to watch, my face perfectly still, my hands clenched in my lap until my nails bit into my palms.But it got worse.The second trial was even more degrading. The remaining women were blindfolded and made to kneel in a circle while Valerius walked among them. He touched them. Stroked them. Made them guess which part of his body was pressing against their lips. Some of them got it right. Most of them got it wrong.The ones who got it wrong were eliminated.The third trial made my stomach turn. The women were given goblets of wine and told to drink. Then they were made to dance. To writhe. To perform like animals for the crowd's amusement. Their bodies twisted and contorted, their faces desperate and hungry. They were no longer women. They were toys. Playth
