Cancel your plans, witches and warlocks! You're invited to tonight's Firewick Festival.
Taking multiple lovers is a family tradition. Hell, it's a witch tradition, but Charice Brixton isn't having it. She doesn't have time for a man, let alone two powerful warlocks. She's perfectly fine running her magic shop in Kala West, Florida with her sisters.
Until she's forced to attend the Firewick Festival, a biannual gathering with stuffy board members overseeing the match of witches and warlocks in hopes of creating the perfect triad. Magical speed dating at its finest. Charice would rather have a root canal. She's willing to use her powers to keep from going, even if it means the wrath of those in charge. That is until two hotter-than-hell men walk into her shop and alter her plans.
As powerful warlock enforcers, Kye and Warren carry out the laws within the magical community. It only makes sense for them to find a mate equally as strong. When they meet Charice, her magic calls to them. Only she can help complete their Mystical Triad, the binding ritual that increases all of their magic abilities. One that involves a lot of power and a lot of sex. Can the Alpha Warlocks convince her they're better as a threesome in both power and love?
This 13,000+ word story is the first of the Alpha Warlocks of Kala West interlinked series but can be read as standalone. It has strong sexual situations and explicit content. Mature and brave readers only.
Auriella Skye dreams of becoming a powerful goddess and creating a whole pantheon of gods to do her naughty bidding. Until then, she happily spends her time weaving those fantasies into the erotic and fun tales that she enjoys reading as much as writing.
She loves creating characters and worlds filled with the wonderful stuff reality lacks. Auriella resides in Central Florida and spends her days and nights surrounded by words in their various, spectacular forms.
Free short story. 3.5 stars. Pro: * promising blurb * quality writing * attraction between characters Con: * no character build * missing story (depth)
My first story by author Auriella Skye and I enjoyed it.
I love a good M/F/M story line and this one didn't disappoint. Charice Brixton is a witch and she runs her own business, so the thought of settling down isn't what she is looking for or wants for that matter. After being summoned by the Elemental Board to come to the Firewick Festival (to meet your potential mates), well lets just say Charice isn't having and she becomes desperate to escape.
Kye and Warren are powerful Warlock enforcers and they have their mate in their cross hairs but they also know that she doesn't want to be in anyone's mate, so they go to out to meet her but pretend to want to buy from her shop. The electricity and magic were of hurricane proportions, nobody could deny that she is indeed their mate, now getting her on board is going to be another hurdle but Key and Warren are up for the challenge.
In this story when a Witch mates, she doesn't get one man but two. Charice although is heavily attracted to these two men and can feel their power, her mind is solely focused on disappearing. Kye and Warren have a problem on their hands and that is trying to keep a hold on their mate.
This is a series and I am looking forward to reading the other books.
providing a review after I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author
i did enjoy reading this book
m/f/m
good chemistry between three. i like the idea of the marks binding them showing everyone they were taken and part of some thing. well written and steamy sex scenes and who wouldn't want two hot guy there just to please you :)
bad parts - she was totally against it at the start. they didn't get to pick each other so is like a magical arranged marriage. do they really like each other or is it a spell?
did i like it? yes. would i read it again? no. was i encouraged to read the next one? no
This book was wayyyyy to short. I know it was designed to be a novella but the plot just got going when the book ended. What happens next? To the warlocks boys go out plundering the world with their new witch mate? Will Charice the witch go back to work at the store or will she be the new badazz enforcer with her warlock men? Is there a dark evil on the horizon that the trios new found power will face? Will a jealous ex from the past come and try to take the warlocks from Charice the witch? Key’s mom is an upper level board member witch, but who is his dad? Will we get more background about this mother and son bond? What about the trio of sisters and their parents? They were born from a trio as well. When do we meet them? This book left more questions then I like. I was just getting ready to settle in for the ride and it ended. This is my first read from the author and now I am forced to read book 2 just to see if any of my questions will get answered. Stars were taken away because I have so many questions…overall I give 2 stars out of 5.
I love the instant connection between Charice, Kye and Warren and fated mates is always a trope I swoon over. The triad worked really well and despite the short story, it was packed to the brim with lore and worldbuilding. I simply devoured this happily
This is a great book. The Alpha Warlocks’Claim is full of lust and love. All the characters are well written and you will be enthralled with the story from beginning to end.
Who doesn't love a good triad love story? This is a twist on ones that I have read, I love that this triad is made up with witches and warlocks. I'm glad that the chemistry between them was so explosive as I read it. I can't wait to read the other stories.
It was a little short, which I think made it hard to develop the plot and story line further. It was not as detailed as it could’ve been, but I still enjoyed the book.
The Alpha Warlocks' Claim: An Alpha Warlocks of Kala West Story #1 by Auriella Skye – If you love the fated mates trope, you will like this novella! Happy Reading!
One sec scene, barely there plot. I thought there was gonna be more. What was written was good and enjoyable but come on more than a hundred pages please.
🌶️🌶️ I read this today in a little less than an hour! Only 80 pages☺️ I actually really enjoyed it and it set me up really well for the next one in the series! It was very fast paced and constantly had something happening so I didn’t even realise when I finished it🤣. It includes small snippets of other books to see if you would enjoy it! Oh did I mention it’s a reverse haram too😅👀 I haven’t got much more to say but if you want something short, touch her and die vibes and a bit of spice to keep you on your toes I 10/10 recommend.
It was an interesting book, the world building was cool. However, I didn't like the insta love trope (they knew each other for one day??). The spice was good though!
It is a novella and in spite of this the story only comprises 80% of the material. The rest is ads for other books. I frankly don't know why the writer bothered.
My only complaint about this story is how short it is. It is a perfect introduction to the series but it reads more like a teaser rather than actual story. I love the premise of this story, with the Triads and witches and warlocks. It’s an interesting take.
If you are looking for a different kind of paranormal romance and don’t mind ménage a trois (maybe they’re your thing?), then this story is definitely for you. The writing could use some polishing but if you can get past that, the story and characters are enjoyable.
