Scent of the Sacrifice By

She thought she was chosen to die.Instead, she was chosen to breed.When Mira is offered to the Hive as a living sacrifice, she expects pain, oblivion, maybe even death. But the ancient alien beneath the altar has other plans. It doesn’t kill her. It claims her. Again. And again. And again.Drenched in sacred pheromones, her body becomes the temple through which the Hive receives its future. But as her bond with the Hivebeast deepens, Mira begins to crave the very ritual meant to break her. And when the ruling Queen feels her power slipping, only one can rise.The beast.The altar.The offering.This time, the sacrifice refuses to kneel.
