Sacrificed to the Beast

Rate this book
Someone has been terrorizing my small town—a huge, horrifying beast, to be exact. He won’t stop rampaging until the villagers sacrifice an innocent. Lucky me! I’m the chosen one. I’ve been tied to a tree in a wedding dress and left as an offering to the cruel ruler of the hills. But once the beast approaches, I glimpse the lonely human beneath the wild hair and mountainous body. Yes, he’s very much a man…a man who will stop at nothing to claim me as his mate.

“You are my fate, Diana"
“MINE. MINE. MINE.”
You are mine, Diana!”

Mrin: Rhysand...is that you??!!
ohhh..and forgot to add this update

“NO!” I roar, my spine snapping straight. “You will stay with Ike.”

“Let me finish!” she shouts back. “And please refer to yourself in first person.”

I cant-😂 I am grinning like a stupid person!!

I officially declare this book as a competitor to KISSING THE CORONAVIRUS
I mean..what the heck was this??!!
It was bizarre !!
Jessa Kane writes OTT books and scenarios BUT this book was plain weird xD
I gave up my logic after 5% into the book

It was a great loss!! Losing my logic I mean(A moment of silence for my logic guys!!)
The people of this town DEFINITELY didn't have ANY LOGIC
This is set in our world where the citizens have lost their mind (Wait a moment..that is true for our world too!!)
But anyway ...this story begins in a town where people are losing their livestock
BUT rather than complaining to the police and trying to find who the culprit is...
They come up with an "awesome solution "
The solution is to "Sacrifice" a girl to the "beast" who is stealing their cattle
CAN ANY OF YOU COME UP WITH A BETTER SOLUTION??!
No, right??!!
Cause that's what these people do!!
They just leave her tied up in the middle of the forest !!

And trust me the story gets even "better"!!
Cause the "BEAST" is NOT a beast BUT a 7 feet tall MALE
Ohhh...sorry I meant ALPHA MALE

“Ahhhhh!” I roar up at the night sky, torn between pleasure and frustration.
Geeez he is one of those ROARING MATES xD

BUT despite that this dude was...shall I say sweet??!
I mean he was so pure and innocent!! I was laughing at his dialogue and yet going "Awww" when he did something sweet

Someone cuddle this cinnamon roll!!
Not gonna reveal much..cause SPOILERS
You have to give this masterpiece a try LMAO
BUT I am gonna appreciate one thing about this book
The Love interest whose name is Ike btw(More on that later) ALWAYS waits for her consent !!
So even though he was a "savage" he was more human than half the "heroes " of the romance novels!!

He does not know basic manners BUT he knows what consent is
*Hats off dude*

Now back to the book
Did I mention how OTT dramatic it is??!
Anyone who thinks to cause harm to this innocent female will encounter my wrath instead. The idea that anyone might want to mar her skin or make her scared makes me want to rip the surrounding trees from the earth.
Dude wants to go Hulk on them xD

Then there's this
She hiccups and her eyes flood with tears. “You probably don’t even have Wi-Fi.”

Her tears make me want to lie down and die. “Is that a type of fish?” I ask, desperate to appease her. “There’s a stream near my home. We can find some.”

Did I not tell you guys he is innocent??😂

“Are you going to want…sex, fire log?” Diana asks in a choppy voice. “Like, t-tonight?”

That word sex tightens my balls, but I don’t understand its meaning. “What is sex? Is that another type of fish?”

“Oh Lord.”

I swear he has a thing for fish xD (Gets shape of Water flashbacks)
I REALLY HOPE he does not have a fish fetish *awkward pause*
Also his name is Ike....I mean now I have Ikea flashbacks
But who am I to judge his name *shrugs*
He was adorable BUT then we have our heroine!!
Whose name was Diana btw...
She is one badass girl!!
Here are her thoughts:
Ike is just like everyone else (although a whole lot bigger). People live behind smokescreens of kindness and honesty, but as soon as the going gets tough, the smoke clears and reveals the real monster lurking beneath. The fact that Ike is seven feet tall and built like an ox will be a helpful, constant reminder not to trust him.

No, sir. No Stockholm Syndrome for this gal.

Do you see??!! She won't be a victim of Stockholm syndrome !! Except she does...

*Mrin tries to hide her Belle profile pic*
Don't look at me!! Beast had a LIBRARY!!!
Even I would willingly stay up there!!
But this book is plain gold!! Especially the chemistry between Ike and Diana!!
His hands plant on the cave wall beside my head. “My body wants something from yours, but I don’t…I’ve never had a woman. I’ve been alone here for a long time. I need you to explain this fever I have to lay you down and…”

“And…?”

“That’s where I’m getting stuck.”

“Interesting choice of words.” With a heavy swallow, I glance down. “I’m pretty sure that’s what would happen.”


No sex education for this dude

“Sort of…” I hedge, my heart pitching. Ike must have been so lonely out here by hims—nope. That’s the Stockholm Syndrome kicking in. Ignore it. “Back to kissing, Ike. That’s what you’re looking for.

See??!! She knows how to IGNORE Stockholm Syndrome



Like, trust me when I say this was bizarre !!
BUT sweet at the same time😂
I don’t like it when you’re upset.” He presses the heel of his hand to his naked stomach. “It hurts me here.”
Guys!! take notes from this guy!!
I can do nothing but stare at my Diana.

With the sunlight streaming down on her through the cave opening, she could be an angel fallen from heaven. God knows that’s what her mouth tasted like. Something straight out of paradise.

He really IS crazy about her😂🥺

I am gonna stop now
Why would I spoil this Gem for you guys??!! Go and read it yourself xD
And on a side note...the Black Dress the cover model is wearing is really good
Where did Jessa Kane buy it??!! If Jessa Kane reads this...will she mind sharing the link for the dress??
I mean I tried finding it on Pinterest BUT couldn't get the EXACT type
This one..maybe(?) I mean it does match my aesthetics

(2.5) this has got to be the best one all day


👹👺👹👺👹👺👹👺👹👺👹👹👺👹👹

setting; she’s hogtied to a tree as a sacrifice to him :

Before I can stop my body’s reaction to the thought, I shoot a rope of semen into the sack of my loincloth, the wet stain forming immediately, clearly visible to us both. “Ahhhhh!” I roar up at the night sky, torn between pleasure and frustration. “Not now.”
“Agreed,” she breathes, staring at my straining cock. “Not now. Definitely not now. I’ve always been a later kind of girl.”


rrrrr

”You will come home with me, Diana. I’ll make you want to stay.”
She hiccups and her eyes flood with tears. “You probably don’t even have Wi-Fi.”
Her tears make me want to lie down and die. “Is that a type of fish?” I ask, desperate to appease her. “There’s a stream near my home. We can find some.”


bleep

”Are you going to want…sex, fire log?” Diana asks in a choppy voice. “Like, t-tonight?”
That word sex tightens my balls, but I don’t understand its meaning. “What is sex? Is that another type of fish?”
“Oh Lord.”


bloop

”You are laughing,” he breathes. “I like that sound very much.”
“Well don’t get used to it. I’m a kidnapping victim. We tend to be grumpy.”


okuurfr

”I cannot. I cannot lie with you, Diana.”
Now there’s an unexpected twist. “Why not?”
His eyes are miserable when he trains them on me. “I peeked this morning. I looked under the skirt of your dress without permission.” He falls back on his haunches, throwing a forearm across his eyes as if it pains him to look at me. “I am sorry, tiny person. I was weak.”


poof pussy like an alakazham

”Ike,” she sobs, her small breasts bouncing with each of my crude pumps. “It feels so good. How can it feel so good?”
“Because you’re the reason I have a cock, tiny human,” I rasp, my drives growing more aggressive, wet sounds bouncing off the walls of the cave. “Open your legs and receive it. Know that it was built just for your virgin girl parts. And your parts are all mine now. I will lick you and fill you with my spend. You are mine, soft, tight, beautiful girl. You are mine, Diana!”


i heard from a friend of a friend

”NO!” I roar, my spine snapping straight. “You will stay with Ike.”
“Let me finish!” she shouts back. “And please refer to yourself in first person.”
I have no idea what first person means, but that is irrelevant right now when she is ripping the heart from my chest.


that that dick was a ten outta ten

If you wanna know how I feel about this book then go check out my review for Stalking her Sweetly. My feelings were the same only this book was weirder…if that’s even possible😶

I didn’t hate the book but I wasn’t a fan of it either, like I said it was weird and I just can’t explain it. But what I will say, is that it is unlike any Jessa Kane book I’ve ever read and I���m not sure I would recommend it unless you’re feeling adventurous😂

UPDATED with audio info and a renewed love!!!

“Open your legs for me. Be a good girl and let me eat.”

I didn’t think there was any way for this book to get better, but then Jessa Kane gave us audio and HOLY SHIT. It’s one of the most perfectly narrated books ever!!! This purchase was worth every single cent because I will be listening to it regularly!

She is the bravest, sweetest, most perfect girl on this earth. I don’t need to meet a single other person to know that’s the truth. I only need her. I need her forever. And God, I need her so bad.

Diana (virgin, likes wi-fi and indoor plumbing) has been left in the forest tied to a tree as a sacrificial virgin for a beast that is allegedly killing cows and stealing chickens.

“I do want very much to kiss your pretty mouth, tiny person. But kissing does not involve my cock and that’s where I’m experiencing most of the trouble.

Ike (virgin, orphaned at age 11) is making the rounds of the forest looking for danger when he spots a tiny human tied to a tree. Bless his precious heart! What little Ike knows of women has been learned by watching VHS tapes of Gilligan's Island (I laughed so freaking much in this book).

That shadow between her legs. It calls to me. Taunts the animal inside me. I can scent something delicious in the air and I know it comes from a place I can’t see.

Diana is shocked when she discovers Ike isn't a "beast" at all, he's just a REALLY large man with a wild mane and beard. These two have some HILIARIOUS interactions while also trying to figure out these new, intense feelings, etc.

“Mine to marry. Mine to feed. Mine to fuck and give orgasms. Mine to get pregnant,” he bellows into the cave. “Mine mine mine. Diana is mine.”

SEX: It’s sooooo good. It’s also somehow hilarious!!! It’s typical OTT Jessa Kane sex and I couldn’t get enough of it. When you add the audio? Good lord, I nearly didn’t survive it!

“Because you’re the reason I have a cock, tiny human.....Open your legs and receive it. Know that it was built just for your virgin girl parts. And your parts are all mine now. I will lick you and fill you with my spend. You are mine, soft, tight, beautiful girl. You are mine, Diana!”

IKE: I think this is one of JK’s most loveable MMCs. When he calls her his “tiny human” I just giggle and swoon. It’s the cutest thing ever!!!! He behaves like a horny, sexy caveman and I’m here for every second of it!

IWFY: You gotta know, this is a book I Will Fight You over! If you dare say a bad word about it, expect to meet me behind the bleachers after school!

AUDIO: The info you’ve all been waiting for. Jason Clarke and Samantha Brentmoor couldn’t be any more perfect if they tried. Jason’s performance as Ike is the stuff legends are made of!!! It’s so so so so soooooo good! And Samantha? She fucking DELIVERS. I wish she could narrate all female characters. I loved it. OH… Did I forget to mention? It’s a fucking DUET!! I need to go listen to it again.

I had so many quotes that GR stopped me because I was over the limit. That’s how amazing this book is. It’s safe to say I recommend it.

This was a quick and dirty read, but thoroughly entertaining.

Diana is chosen to be sacrificed to the beast after the local townspeople’s livestock are being hunted and killed, left and tied to a tree she is terrified when the beast arrives only to be a large man who has lived his life in the shadows of the surrounding woods. Diana quickly comes to see the man beneath the exterior and finds a man she cannot help but fall for, is it possible for her to love him so completely and so fast?

Ike has lived his life in the woods mostly alone after his mother died in childbirth and his father couldn’t live without her, now a man that roams the forest and lives the simple life he is shocked when he comes across the most perfect woman and one he is certain is his fate and was always meant to be his but could she possibly want to stay and love a man like him and could he let her go if that was what she really wanted?

This was a crazy hot interpretation of beauty and the beast in my opinion, loved the story and how these two came together. Loved this book.

classic Jessa Kane novella....

is it out of pocket? yes

is it spicy? yes

did I love every second? yes

her father "sacrifices" her to the "beast" in the woods, and instead of him killing her, he sees her and is like MINE.

What is not to love. Duet narration audiobook is amazing

**must love audio given ALC

4.5 stars: he calls her tiny human AND watches Gilligan’s Island

Listen… I grew up watching reruns of Gilligan’s Island (along with I Love Lucy), so when i saw it mentioned here, I GASPED… and then giggled… and then got emotional cause I miss my childhood 😭.

But I digress lol

The audiobook??? IT. F’ING. EAAAAAATS 😮‍💨👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 just like they’re saying the beast in the town is doing 🤣.
And it’s duet narration? My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!!!😮‍💨❤️

ANNNNNNNDDD it has bonus material at the end 👏🏻.

Diana’s being offered as a sacrifice to the beast that keeps consuming livestock 😅 DEEEEECADES before, something similar happened and another woman was forced to be the offering to calm down the beast- and it worked (according to stories). And because Diana’s a virgin, she’s the perfect candidate (and her dad doesn’t even TRY fight for her to NOT be the sacrifice 😑😒😐).

When she meets this 7 foot “beast”, she realizes that he’s not what everyone thinks he is 👀 and she can’t help but be attracted to him 👀.

Ike has been living without his parents since he was 11 ☹️ he’s living a primitive life, watching Gilligan’s Island reruns on VHS tapes (😭I remember those days) and has limited knowledge on the outside world…

And, well, sex 😅

Not to worry though, cause Diana might also be a virgin, but she understands a lot more than it may seem 👀 and can help HIM understand 👀

So they’re gonna learn how to do it all together 🔥

What I liked/loved:
—the times I LAUGHED!!! 🤣🤣🤣 sex fish??? WiFi fish??? Bahahahhah ERMAGODDDDD 🤣🤣🤣. Dead. 💀 I’m DEEEEAAADDDD 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀

—the 🔥. Well. Yeah. Duh lol. These two like it diiiirty 🥵 they sure don’t act like they’ve never done this before 😉💦

—Ike’s dirty mouth 🥵. Ufff. This big boiiii gets down in a alllll ways 😮‍💨🔥

—kicking ASSSSSSS 💅nobody better hurt his woman 🤷🏻‍♀️

—JP and MINEMINEMINE 😈in all ways

—how protective he is 🫶. I love how Diana pretends to hurt her ankle so that he doesn’t un alive the bad guys 🤣 and he rushes over faster than the speed of light 🥹❤️

—who needs feet when you can be carried 🤷🏻‍♀️👏🏻

—the epilogue 🥹❤️

—he calls her tiny 🥹

What I wanted more:
—length ❤️

—more comeuppance 😑😒

—the exhibitionist scene was a little… ahem… 🫣, but I get it 🤣🤣🤣🤣. This is JK here 🤡

Overall, I loved it 🫶🫶🫶

"Sacrificed to the Beast" is the story of Diana and Ike.

“Mine to marry. Mine to feed. Mine to fuck and give orgasms. Mine to get pregnant,” he bellows into the cave. “Mine mine mine. Diana is mine.”

LOL.

Well.. this was funny.

The heroine is a virgin who is sacrificed to the beast..who turns out to be a virgin Tarzan himself- speaking in single syllables and growling while getting turned on and masturbating half of the time. They bang. She teaches him about humans. Some drama happens. The end.

It was ridic.

Safe

I loved this! Honestly, this is what I was wanting from Jessa Kane and she delivered. It was over the top and erotic. Was it logical? No. Is it anything that’s going to make you a better person? Nope. Just what I read Jessa Kane for.

This was a sort of Beauty and Beast retelling that I didn’t know I would like. I loved Diana and Ike and together! They both made me laugh and I adored the way Ike was protective of her. He literally treated her like his everything and we all know I’m a sucker for that.

While this novella won’t be for everyone, I really enjoyed it! If you are a fan of Kane's previous work then you will love it as well!

Listen, and be amazed.

This book is exactly what it says on the tin and I will continue to say that for every book I review by Jessa Kane. This one is probably one of my favorites though. It was quick, sweet, and a little bit morally unsound. Okay, a lot. But If you want a quick thrill, where you the Tarzan like man gets the girl and treats her like his jungle queen.

He knows he shouldn't keep her, but he'll treat her so good and breed her anyway.

Yup. I'm into it.

If you are too, this book is for you.

Enjoy!

Narrated in Duet by Jason Clarke & Samantha Brentmoor, who were thrilling and left no crumbs.

Again with so much ridiculousness in this book. It's modern times and the guy wears a loincloth and has never gone to the village? This isn't George of the Jungle or Tarzan. Then again, maybe it is:

❖ The guy legit pounds his chest like Tarzan after he makes her orgasm.

He pounds his chest. I can't take this seriously...then again, maybe with these quick KU reads, we're not supposed to do so.

Just craziness all around. Definite eye roll moments too:

In these moments with him, I’m not a mother or a wife or even a woman. I’m a depraved, sex-addicted creature and I need to be filled or I’ll die.

This is about the only thing I found sweet about this book:

Whereas the cave was crude and basic when I first saw it, when I woke up from my post-sex coma, I saw Ike’s home through new eyes. So there was no indoor plumbing. So what? I had a seven-foot gentle giant wrapped around me, holding me like he might never let go.

That's about it....read at your own risk.

ETA: There is also the ever favorite voyeurism as well.

It was aight. The time period was oddly confusing. It sounded medieval, but then there were electronics and phrases like "marketable assets" and I was lost.

You kinda just roll with a lot of these issues in a smutty novella.

There is no magic or supernatural part in this story. Just some dumb villagers, a girl in the wrong place and time, and a really large hero living in the woods.

Diana vive en un pueblo en el que de repente empiezan a aparecer animales muertos. Uno de sus vecinos dice que es una bestia que vive en el bosque y la única manera de apaciguarla es entregarle a una chica joven y virgen. Pues ya sabéis a quien le tocó.

Puedo decir ya que me encantan los chicos nenandertales e ingenuos? QUE TENGO UNA DEBILIDAD MUY GRANDE!!!!! 😍 Me parece tan adorable Ike que estoy que me muero de amor por él. Y lo dulce que fue siempre con Diana incluso cuando se metían con él esos estúpidos 😠
No conocía mucho de esta autora pero con estos libros que me he leído me está gustando cada vez más tendré que buscar más libros de ella sin duda!

Esta historia aunque cortita y para pasar el rato la recomiendo mucho! ❤️

I can't deal with this 💀💀.

Jessa Kane honestly writes the most hilarious smut ever. It's so ridiculous- but in the best way possible. Ugh, it was so bad. But it was actually kinda amazing.

No but why did it 'squelch' when it hit the floor, this boy's loin cloth SQUELCHED- I'm dead.
