The Warlord's Vessel

An Orcs Romantasy

Rowena was declared barren, defective, unwanted. When her city offers her as tribute to the Orc Warlord to buy peace, she expects brutality. She expects to be used and discarded.

Kael-Thar has other plans.

The towering Warlord doesn’t see a broken woman. He sees his mate. In Orc culture, magic is unlocked through pleasure, and Kael-Thar is determined to worship every inch of Rowena until she understands her true worth. She isn’t barren—she simply needed a male large enough, skilled enough, and devoted enough to awaken the power in her blood.

As Rowena’s body responds to his relentless devotion, as she discovers pleasures she never imagined, she begins to fall for the monster she was taught to fear. But when a human army arrives to "rescue" her, she must choose: return to the society that discarded her, or claim the Warlord who would burn the world to keep her.

Some women cross the border and never want to go back.
