Bonds at War: The Virgin is Mine

by Sand Kastle

I always thought getting accepted into Elite Order Academy would finally make my family proud.

Perhaps then they would stop controlling my every move. Maybe my brothers would stop resenting me. Perhaps I wouldn’t feel so invisible anymore.

No one believed I could do it—not even my mate, Alpha Jaxon Trevane.

The night I planned to tell him... I found him tangled in bed with my best friend.

Heartbroken and humiliated, I left everything behind and went to Elite alone.

But the academy isn’t the fairytale I dreamed about.

Beneath the grand halls and traditions, a brutal game is being played.

The four ruling Alphas of the North, South, East, and West fight for power, dominance... and now, for me.

A virgin. Untouched. Unclaimed. The prize they all want.

There’s the mate who shattered my heart and swears he’ll win me back.

The brilliant strategist who wants me as his Luna.

The dangerous playboy who promises no one will ever touch me but him.

And the cold, possessive Alpha who watches from the shadows—and would destroy anyone who dares to take me from him.

But in a place where love is a battlefield and lust is a weapon... falling in love might be the most dangerous thing I ever do.

Welcome to Elite Order Academy—where every desire has a price, and my body is the ultimate trophy.

I loved this way too much. There were some characters I wish had gotten more time and some I wish had more growth and change but it is what it is.

I read this book in 2.5 days…would’ve been sooner however…life lol. I loved it and can’t wait for the second book! I didn’t realize I purchased it the day after it was published! I will definitely keep an eye on this author’s publications. Can’t wait to see what they come up with next 🤗

Mmmmmmmmmmmm
Creo que estuvo interesante, me atrapó lo suficiente durante 500 páginas
Pero… esta innecesariamente largo
Demasiado diría yo
No conecte con los personajes pero me gusta el concepto en general
2.5 ⭐️

Dnf 50%. Me hartó el sistema de las aplicaciones de lectura como Mobi reader y a eso sumale que el pace es muy apresurado y hay cosas muy convenientes. Aparte se supone que hay lobos y lo que menos pasa es haber cosas referentes a eso: que se transformen, sus lobos, las ideas de manadas, etc..

couldn’t put it down

Can’t wait for the next book “Hearts at war”. Love all the characters. I hope to see some more of Arden and Cade in the next book too.

amazing story

This was by far the most interesting take on the supernatural universe I love how the story develops and eventually the truth comes out for all of the characters.

Beautiful Story

This book was full of exciting and beautiful moments and I thoroughly enjoyed every last piece that it held within its cover.

Arden finds out her fated mate is cheating on her with her best friend. She's heartbroken and angry, rightfully so, since not only did she believe she could trust her mate but also felt like she had an ally when it came to her family. Her controlling family is just really shitty towards her even when she's accepted to Elite Order Academy. While there, she finds the academy is not exactly how she'd pictured and ends up having to keep a big secret for her safety. It's crazy and on top of that, she has complicated relationships with the 4 dominant Alphas, one of them being her cheating ex.
