Family Vengeance. Rebirth

by Nikolai Shved

She was born to be a weapon. They think she's their salvation. Everyone's about to be surprised. Valeria Knight isn't just rare—she's impossible. Vampire venom, witch fire, and wolf fury flow through her veins, making her the kind of creature that shouldn't exist. She's spent years honing that impossibility into a blade sharp enough to cut down the uncle who murdered her family and stole her throne. But revenge has a price, and hers just came due. Chained and caged at the supernatural world's most exclusive auction, Valeria expects to be sold to the highest bidder. What she doesn't expect is to be claimed by Julius and Adrian Blackstone—twin Alpha Kings whose reputations are as dark as their desires. They think the mate bond makes her theirs. They're wrong. Valeria Knight doesn't kneel. Not to destiny, not to kings, and certainly not to two arrogant Alphas who believe they can tame her with pretty words and royal promises. She has a war to win and a family to avenge, and no amount of fated magic will distract her from painting the walls with her uncle's blood.
