Birth Rite

De: X. Aratare

Narrado por: Chris Patton

A world of sex, magic, and old gods awaits, and the LaMascares Mansion is the doorway....

Justin Devereaux has always been different, and not just in looks from his parents. His interests run to the magical and mysterious while theirs seem very pedestrian and small. The one thing that has always interested him and frightened them is the LaMascares Mansion. The mansion has sat long, seemingly empty and abandoned, but Justin feels someone in it watching over him.

Peren LaMascares has been trapped in the mansion on the hill for too many years to count. He needs a LaMascares’ heir to free him and bring about the family’s - and world’s - dark destiny. He finds that heir in the innocent, unsuspecting Justin.

Peren leads Justin into a world of sex, magic, and old gods. Will Justin abandon all the morals he’s ever had so that he can have the lust-filled passion that Peren offers forever?

Questionable book love the author so thought I would read it

I didn’t like the book because the sex flet forced I felt just as unforgettable as the main Character

The story is good, but ends abruptly

I really enjoyed the story, and the narrator does a very good job. However, the story feels very quick and doesn’t give much background. In general I wish it had been longer, just to let the story develop.

Creepy and a great read.

I so loved listening to it the story. It gave me the chills, but I still enjoyed it, I would love to listen to this over and over again.

Weird twist on good vs evil 😶

It goes to show you, one ever really knows. I like the whole mystery aspect of the story. Towards the end, it’s a wonder if there’s indeed such things as good and evil. I for one, have yet to meet an unflawed person.

Justin Devereaux is intrigued and fascinated by the LaMascares 🎭 Mansion, to the point of obsession. Dark. Truly dark. The mysterious man introduces young Justin to sex. As much as Justin wants to do what’s right, he’s disturbed and conflicted. Like I said, dark. And… it may not be for everyone. I have enjoyed Raythe’s Reign since 2017. Once again, a gripping story by X. Aratare. 💕 Perfectly, beautifully written. And a disturbing one! 😈

As far as narration by Chris Patton, wonderfully executed as always. -A fan. 💘

PS: this is a weird short horror story. Something I would expect cooked up in the 70’s. 😝 Definitely not romance.

dark and Intriguing

Steamy and amazing in detail. the reader did a wonderful job. I am used to X. Aratare long stories so I wanted the story to continue on and not end.
