Alpha Kings by Roe Horvat

 

Alpha Kings is another wonderfully steamy and erotic omegaverse from Roe Horvat. I absolutely enjoyed Wolf, Bear, and Aiken's story.

From the blurb:

As the king’s only omega son, Prince Aiken has been taught to obey in silence. Kept prisoner in his own home, his only destiny is to accept the alpha his father chooses and produce an heir to the throne.

Then one autumn day, barbarians defeat the king’s army and break into the castle: Aiken is taken hostage and brought to a citadel ruled by the formidable Cairistine lords. Suddenly, Aiken is allowed to look, speak, and roam on his own—and the things he witnesses are both outrageous and marvelous. How come the omegas at the citadel seem so happy? And who are the mysterious lords? What are they?

Bear and Wolf are the last of their kin, the true lords of Cairistine. Their powers have weakened, however, and unless a miracle happens, their sons will be born mere humans. While Bear has his doubts, Wolf believes in legends. If they can find the one omega who’ll give them twin sons from his first heat, the magic in their blood will be revived.

None of this is on their minds when they kidnap Prince Aiken—they only want the war to end. But as time passes, the skittish virgin awakens desires in them both. They would never take an innocent omega against his will… but what if they seduce him?

The story is a part of the Hedonist universe in a new place with a new cast of characters. MMM omegaverse, two alphas and one omega, shifter, mpreg.

Lilly's Review:

Aiken grew up in an oppressive society; as an omega - even as the son of a king - he is beneath Alphas; however, with Wolf and Bear, he finds himself in a culture where omegas are not only respected but celebrated. He's able unlearn harmful teachings, find himself and connect with his destined mates.

Wolf and Bear, despite their fearsome appearance, allow Aiken to not be kept as a prisoner of war; he's allowed to live as a prince under their watch, and they are not forceful in any way. They give him space him to explore and grow, patiently watching over him.

Roe writes his omegas with so much agency over their sexuality, they own it, yet at the same time they are more than their designation.

I loved the relationship between Wolf and Bear just as much as I loved their relationship with Aiken. The two brothers greatly respect one another - they complement one another, and with Aiken, they are complete.

The spice! It's perfection. This book is an erotic romance by Roe, so expect lots and lots of steamy, steamy sex! I also loved that we got heat sex and a chestfeeding scene!

While this book does take place in the Hedonist world you can totally read it as a standalone. I have not read the other books in the Hedonist series but I was able to enjoy Alpha Kings and didn't feel lost.

Overall, Alpha King was an absolutely delightful story! I love the world and lore Roe created and can't recommend it enough for fans of Roe and Omegaverse.

Zakiyya's Review:

Every time I read a book of his, I think there is no way the next one will be dripping with steam the way this one did and every time it’s like he reads my mind and goes... ‘watch me'.

The sensuality in his stories are unmatched. He's capable of tantalizing and teasing you to a point of utter and total seduction.

Some might actually want to get you off, some might not, but all of them will have you frantically turning the pages and fanning your face as the spice levels increase.

Aiken, Bear and Wolf were absolute fire together, their intense passion, love and mutual respect was evident and I loved every smoking hot second of this book.
