A God of Wolves
Not yet published
Expected 1 Mar 26She was an outcast without a wolf, and yet—she was the only one who could crown a god.
Nayanthara's beauty was legendary, her spirit unbroken… but her fate was cruel. Born without the werewolf gene, she was scorned by her own kind—until the two most powerful wolves in the kingdom fell under her spell.
Jethro, heir of the mighty King of Wolves, has loved her from afar, even while keeping his eye on the crown. The girl and the kingdom should be his, after all, he is the better brother.
Lupen, wild and untamed, has run from duty his whole life—until one night the fates intercept and pulls him towards a bond to the woman his brother covets. He knows he should be a better man, but how does one fight against a mate bond?
Best friend or fated mate.
Kingdom or freedom.
Love or legacy.
Caught between two brothers, Nayanthara holds the balance of a realm—and the making of a god—in her hands.
Dive into the tale that shaped the destiny of Lykosia. The curse that bound wolfkind and started a war between two species that are equally matched in power. The love that reshaped a kingdom. The man who lost his throne but gained the divine.
A God of Wolves—the story that changed everything.
(Note: This novella contains events that occur during A Bond of Villains, Book 2 of the Lycora Wolves series and must be read after.)

About the author
Yajna Ramnath
29 books75 followersYajna Ramnath writes like she’s crafting spells—equal parts beauty, danger, and a little chaos.
An author of fantasy, romance, and deliciously dark romance, Yajna builds worlds where love burns, bleeds, and sometimes bites. Her stories are filled with powerful heroines who don’t wait to be saved, dangerously charming love interests who toe the line between savior and sinner, and plot twists sharper than a dagger in the dark.
When she isn’t tormenting her characters (and her readers) with emotional rollercoasters and morally grey dilemmas, she’s doing something equally intense—headshotting opponents in Call of Duty Mobile like the badass she is. Let’s just say her trigger finger is as fast as her plot twists.
Based in a world of words, Wi-Fi, and caffeine-fueled nights, Yajna writes not just to tell stories—but to create entire emotional black holes you’ll gladly get sucked into.
Dark romance with heart. Fantasy with fire. Love that lingers like a ghost.
Welcome to her world. Don’t forget to bring snacks—and maybe a sword.

YAJNA WHAT THE HECK!
okay I really didn't expect my heart to experience this much love, devotion, pain and sacrifice in one sitting. The truth as it should have been told, lost in reiterations, spoken from lips meant to corrupt and control or cause fear.
Naya and Lupen really pulled at my heart with their tie, the fact he went to such great lengths to protect what sanity they had until his heart won over. He never wanted this, he never wanted anything more than to just be - Naya changed him in all the best ways a mate can but their union sent ripples down a timeline they couldn't defend, altering their own future and the future of their blood for centuries.
As much as I want to hate Jethro, I can't. I understand his pain turned fury - his misguided soul was broken and hurt people hurt people and maybe that's myself channeling Naya and her kindness and compassion.
A great novella that touches on so many topics, emotions and how those outcomes are written before we know it. This one was something really special to me and spoke out to my own soul, I wish this was longer but it's perfectly built, cut and concise. Its purpose was to tell the truth, the past of the present and the future to come and it invoked so many feelings for me, and I felt completely and totally immersed in this world. I cannot wait for the next book!
Thank you Yajna for the rollercoaster that comes along with being on your team 🖤😭

I had the utter privilege of getting to read A God of wolves early! And whilst it isn't book 3 of the series it is book 2.5 and very important for understanding the basis in which the books are made.
Now in book one and two we are shown Nero and Kaia. We learn their stories and, if you are anything like me, have a million questions as to why certain things happen and what happened before their story that makes their story make sense, which I'm worried this review does not haha.
A God of wolves focuses on telling the story straight from the source instead of from a persons perspective because we all know an individuals thoughts and feelings and standing in a story can sway the telling of it in ways that they may not even be aware of.
Now who is in the midst of such a story? Brothers Jethro and Lupen. Rivals from the day they entered the world as one was cool and calm and the other thrived off jealousy and rage. Then along comes Naya. Will a friendship be enough for one brother when fate rears it's head? You would hope so!
So whilst we finally hear the story straight from the source, it is a story that will make you smile and cry, break your heart and then fix it and it will still leave you asking some questions. So, if you haven't already, you need to read book one and two! Because this is a series that definitely needs to be read in order. I promise it is a series worth reading! And whilst book 3 is on the cards, I have it on good authority that it will take a while as everything needs to be wrapped up pretty and perfectly (and if I had my way be the longest book in history 🤭)

Just like the other Lycora books, this novella does not disappoint! We thought we knew Lupen and Nayanthra’s story but this one tells us we only got different versions (which is so good right, bc everyone views the story differently and this book did a great job highlighting that). The villain is still the villain, even if Jethro saw it differently- he still lost his mind and went full evil. I loved that we saw how we got to Kaia and Nero’s story and got a glimpse of them through Naya and Lupen’s eyes. There is a cliffhanger and hints at more to come, but that was expected. It just made me want to read book 3 even more. This story is gritty and full of love, hatred, jealousy, betrayal, and complicated feelings. We learned how Lupen and Naya became gods and myths and how words have power and magic to bend even fate if not handled correctly. My heart hurt for Naya and Lupen and Lore and Tabytha and I even had some empathy for Jethro. Well done Yajna, your characters are complex in every book and you’ve created a wonderful world of myth and lore and morally grey areas where the characters are both likeable and hateable. Thank you for letting me ARC.

When I read A Clash/Bond of Villains, I was hoping we would get the story of Lupen and Nayanthara. To know the origin of them and how it began.
Yajna gave us a beautiful story with all the twists and prophecies and most of all LOVE. Learning about where it started and how the heirs fit in place. Aaaaa I loved it. That ending!!!! Omg that ending... I have no words. I can't wait to see what Yajna has up her sleeve for our wolves. (yes I'm calling them our wolves.)
If you haven't read this series grab it now. Yajna's writing slaps every single time. I absolutely love the way she makes you feel everything with her characters.

The Lycora Wolves series is where I first discovered and fell in love with Yajna's writing and A God of Wolves is not an exception to the others, it's everything I knew I wanted and more, to take a trip down the well established, enticing and heartbreaking history. The story itself dug deep and settled into my very bones, making me ache all over again for the characters and what they have had to endure. This series was one of my favorites of 2025 and it looks like its going to remain a favourite through 2026.
