Bewitching the Orc Chief
The most potent magic is sealed with a bite.
Miranda
All I wanted was one night of normal after a year of... avoiding my former coven. Instead, I got an orc chief who took one look at me and growled "mine." One scorching night later, I wake up in his village—which is definitely not what I had in mind for the morning-after.
Now I'm surrounded by suspicious orcs, trying to keep my magic under wraps, and fighting an inconvenient attraction to my very large, very possessive "host." But hey, at least my familiar likes him—the traitor.
Osen
The clan elders demand I take a mate to secure my position as chief. I didn't expect fate to hand me a witch who makes my blood burn and my instincts roar to mark her again. And again.
Our shaman spits venom about dark magic, while my uncle circles like a vulture. But when my brother lies bleeding out and her forbidden power yanks him back from the brink, I know I'll burn down tradition to keep her.
Then her coven tracks her to my mountains, and I discover exactly what kind of darkness my mate has been running from. They want to drain her magic and steal her power—but they'll need to go through me first.
My mate. My witch. And I'll destroy anyone who tries to take her from me.
Bewitching the Orc Chief is a spicy monster romance featuring an orc with questionable courtship etiquette, a fiery witch on the run, and a cat familiar who's definitely judging everyone. For readers craving fated mates, forbidden magic, and magical small town charm.

No lo sé, hubieron cosas que no me convencieron 😢🥴
Read
January 5, 2025I’ll be honest, I downloaded this purely based on the cover (not the one showing here lol) without even reading the blurb, and really enjoyed this! It was smutty, fast paced, with a dash of drama, and was all around a good time!

4 stars — This book is a “one night stand turns into accidental orc‑wife relocation program” situation, and honestly? I was entertained the entire time.
Miranda just wants one normal night. One. Night.
Instead, she gets an orc chief who takes one look at her and basically declares, “Yes, hello, that’s my wife.” And then she wakes up in his village like she accidentally signed a lease.
The energy?
Unhinged but charming.
Possessive but soft.
Monster‑romance comfort food.
Miranda is a fiery witch with a messy past and a coven she’d rather never see again. She’s powerful, prickly, and absolutely not prepared for Osen — a very large, very intense orc chief who courts like a man who has never heard the word “boundaries.” His vibe is “mine,” but in a warm, protective, “I will fight the world for you” way rather than a red‑flag way.
The village dynamics are fun, the suspicious orcs are hilarious, and the familiar is absolutely judging everyone like the tiny furry menace he is.
Where the book shines is the chemistry — it’s instant, it’s chaotic, and it has that fated‑mates heat without losing the emotional beats. Osen is all instinct and devotion, while Miranda is trying very hard not to fall for the orc who treats her like she hung the moon.
The plot?
Fast.
Fun.
A little dramatic in the best way.
The coven conflict adds tension without dragging the story down, and the moment Osen realises exactly what Miranda has been running from? Deliciously satisfying.
This is a short, spicy, magical small‑town monster romance with heart, humour, and a hero who would absolutely bulldoze a mountain for his witch.
4 stars — cozy, chaotic, witch‑meets‑orc goodness with just enough danger to keep things interesting and just enough sweetness to make you melt.

Osen nuzzled my neck, scraping his tusks across my sensitive skin. "All mine." Possession dripped from every word, each syllable an oath. I belonged to him. Just as he belonged to me.
4.25 stars
This was such a breath of fresh air for me! Chloe Graves has become one of my go-to authors as I just love her easy writing style and amazing characters. Osen was immediately obsessed with his mate from the moment they met but was conflicted when her past threatened the safety of his clan. I loved Miranda's tenacity and desire to become a better person, and the chemistry between them was immediate and so steamy. There was just the right amount of drama and angst to keep the plot moving and me reading. I loved this introduction to a new series by Chloe and cannot wait for book 2🖤
Tropes: fated mates, forbidden love, possessive clan chief hero, independent heroine-on-the-run, monster dating app, orc clan politics, dark magic, touch her and die, mating bite, dirty talk, STEAMY🔥

An entertaining, short story
I liked this one. Although it was a short story, it was utmost satisfying. It had it all; a witch in hiding, a huge, protective Orc Chief with a heart of gold, a dating app, a hilarious cat/familiar, a healthy dose of scheming to keep things interesting and a magnetic bond between our main MCs that leaves no room to question. I liked Osen a lot. Fierce, protective, progressive – he wants to do right by his people and always has their best interest at heart. Miranda also has a heart of gold. She is on the run from her past; she was misguided to use black magic, she run away and now her former coven is after her. When they meet, sparks fly. Osen understands immediately that she is his fated mate and has no intention of letting her go. Great plot and character building, despite the short size. 4 stars.

This was a fab one-sit read for me and an exciting series opener. I loved seeing Miranda and Osen come together. These two were fire! Yet both have trauma/tragedy in their pasts and they don't escape revisiting it :( I was on the edge of my seat wondering how everything would pan out for these two and if they'd actually get their HEA. Be ready to root hard for this wonderful couple and I have to say, I'm so looking forward to the next book to see who gets their happy ending, as well. I loved many of the side characters so the author has a few to chose from to keep this reader happy ;P Good fun!

When Miranda came to Silvermist hiding from her previous coven she never expected to find love and a home. Orsen never expected to find his mate from a date from a dating app but as soon as he saw Miranda the mate bond clicked. What follows is a heartwarming story of an orc chief protecting his witch while trying to settle a broken clan. I love monster romances and highly recommend this one. If you are looking for fated mates, spice, and a HEA look no further. Orc romances are starting to become my favorite in monster romances! I can’t wait to read the next book in the Silvermist series!.

A steamy paranormal with fated mates that are a witch and orc. A surprising depth of world building and character building for not only the main but the supporting characters for such a short book. Devoured this I'm a single evening. Both MC are likeable and fun. The plenty of romance and stream built in to a surprisingly deep plot.
I'm adding the next book to my TBR and this author to my list as well.

Miranda and Osen met on a dating app and after one meeting he knew she was his mate. She’s hiding from her dark past and he’s trying to find his way as the new clan chief. Together they face fear and uncertainty while discovering how deep the corruption goes in his clan and facing her past. The two of them fit together beautifully and her cat Gus steals your heart too.

Osen is an Orc chieftain who wants his mate but hasn't met her yet. He decides to use the dating app MythMatch. Little does he know that Miranda feels the same way he does, and she uses the same app. Their chemistry is terrific, and Osen knows Miranda is his fated mate when they meet. This is an excellent book—it is incredibly intense. I loved it from the beginning to the end. It's a fantastic book!

This is a very short fast read.
Miranda had a bad experience with her coven and left. She keeps moving to stay away from them. But then she opens up because she’s lonely. In enters Osen. An orc with his own hurt. Which turns out to be bigger than even I was thinking.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I like how they meet and Osen realizes Miranda is his mate. The clan doesn't welcome them at first due to a festering coup. I'm glad the lead of this coup is revealed and he pays for his crimes. Osen and Miranda mate and are happy.

Great read
Enjoyed reading this, a short story for me, but great if you want something to read from start to finish in the allotted time given. A Witch and an Orc Chief, love at first sight, mates and the usual baddies that try to intervene. Very well written and great storyline. In to book 2 to see how the brother fairs.

This is such a fun and entertaining read. I love the chemistry between Orsen and Miranda. Their banter if adorable and you feel the connection building. Their sex scenes are steamy. It’s fast paced but so much happens. Excellent escape read after a stressful day at work! I’ve found a new author crush.

Bewitching!
Oswn and Miranda meet through a dating app and he immediately knows she's his mate and she feels the same connection between them. But, she's a former dark witch with her old coven looking for her and he's the new orc chief and some are set in the old ways and make things bad for the couple. Great story.

This is a really funny and steamy romance. Miranda's strengths (and her snort laugh) makes Osen want to claim her stronger. Osen knows Miranda is his mate and once he finds out she has dark magic that she ran away from, he doesn't turn her away. Plus, she saved his brother and helped get rid of the evil shaman. There's danger and humor with a happy ending for them.

Miranda and Osen
This is a short, very good, well written, Orc/Human Witch romance. Miranda is running from her past and the dark witches she had trained with. She did not want to do dark magic. Osen recently lost his father and became his clan’s chief. Both tried an app and now are meeting. Read what happens when they go to his home and dark forces move against them.

I loved this story. Miranda's a dark magic witch on the run from her coven trying to start over and do things better. Osen is the new Orc chief due to his father's recent death. They are fated mates and together they might just save each other from the hidden evil hunting both.

Really enjoyed this book. It covers the whole closed minded religious leader who betrays his people. Yes this has been done before however Chloe does it very well.

For a short story, this was well-balanced and well-written! It didnt feel rushed, filled in gaps so you understood the backstory of the characters, and of course the romance and love they find

Short, but actually well written and enjoyable story. 5/5

What a sweet ending. The FMC finally found what she was looking for. Our MCs definitely deserve their happily ever.
