Valeria grew up hidden in plain sight, her true nature suppressed by magic. As an Arcanthrope, a rare werewolf with mystical powers, Valeria is highly sought after for breeding, power, and sacrifice.
Just days before her 21st birthday, Valeria finds out that Isolde, a witch who raised her, plans to harvest her magic and give her to Sheridan Silvermane, the young Alpha who has been itching to claim her as his own.
With no other choice, Valeria flees North, into the forbidden lands no werewolf dares to enter. There, she encounters Lucian Malrik, and the magic binding her prevents Valeria from recognizing him for what he is—the powerful Lycan King and her fated mate.
Lucian brings her home, determined to help her heal, but enemies within his palace force Valeria to flee again.
...
“Six months,” Lucian growled, his eyes reflecting a violent storm of emotions. “It took me six months to find—”
“Mate,” she whispered.
His anger was replaced by glee in an instant. “You know what I am to you?”
“You’re the bastard who abandoned me.”
“No. I never abandoned you, Val. Let me explain. Let me prove that you are my only one...”
...
As Sheridan hunts her, witches scheme, and the unrest on the border is rising, Lucian must protect his people and win Valeria's heart.
With enemies closing in, Valeria is running out of time to discover the true nature of her powers, which she must do because she is the only one who can end the war between species... as the true Lycan Queen.
Review:
S.R. Page’s The Lycan’s Queen opens with a whisper and grows into a roar. It’s a supernatural romance that refuses to play by the rules of fate or fantasy. At its heart is Valeria, a wolfless girl raised in the shadows of the Silvermane Pack, her true nature bound by magic and betrayal. She is an Arcanthrope, a rare werewolf with mystical powers, and her very existence is currency in a world ruled by dominance, superstition, and sacrifice.
The first chapter sets the tone with quiet dread. Valeria overhears a conversation that shatters her world. Her adoptive mother, Isolde, and the Young Alpha Sheridan plot to exploit her body and latent power during a celestial alignment. The betrayal is visceral.
Valeria’s flight from the pack is not just an escape; it’s the ignition of her transformation. She journeys into forbidden lands, where she meets Lucian Malrik, the Lycan King, and her fated mate. Their romance simmers with tension and emotional complexity, refusing to reduce love to destiny alone.
Lucian’s plea—“Let me prove that you are my only one”—is not a promise of salvation, but a challenge to earn trust in a world that has taught Valeria to expect betrayal.
Page’s prose balances elemental symbolism with forensic realism, crafting a world where witches scheme, borders bleed, and power is never without cost.
Valeria is no passive heroine; she is a survivor, a seeker, and ultimately, a queen in her own right. As war looms and enemies close in, her journey becomes one of reclamation of magic, identity, agency, and love.
The Lycan’s Queen is a tale for readers who crave emotional resonance, outsider triumphs, and the kind of romance that burns through betrayal to find truth. It’s fierce, poetic, and utterly unforgettable.
