Tamed by the Billionaire Alpha...

Archer Vale

The “insemination chapel” is hidden deep beneath the manor house. 
I thought this job sounded too good to be true—working as a summer housekeeper at the billionaire’s rural hunting lodge. I didn’t realize why he actually hired me though… 
He started by asking about my ex-girlfriend, then he demanded I wear a skimpy maid dress at all times. He’s paying well, so I decided to play along. 
But now, deep beneath his estate, I kneel naked upon a stone altar. He’s transformed me—I need him. He says there have been dozens of young men here before me, but where are they? 
The only thing I know for certain is that I’m in love. 
I’m in love with his sweaty body.

The Pharaoh’s Kill List - Inside...

Davis Truman

Buried beneath the sands of Ancient Egypt lies a secret history far darker than the pyramids, pharaohs, and golden treasures we think we know… 
For centuries, whispers of a forbidden ritual have haunted archaeologists and historians, a chilling practice woven into the rise and fall of Egypt’s most powerful rulers. In The Pharaoh’s Kill List: Inside the Ancient Egyptian Tradition of Human Sacrifice, bestselling researcher Davis Truman pulls back the curtain on a world where divine kingship demanded blood, loyalty was enforced through death, and every royal tomb carried secrets meant to stay hidden forever. 
What Truman uncovers is not the Egypt of school textbooks. This is the Egypt of ritual executions, buried servants, silenced enemies, and elite corpses chosen to accompany the pharaoh into the afterlife. Through newly analyzed evidence, forgotten stelae, and translations of long-overlooked texts, this book dives deep into: 
•	The origins of human sacrifice in early dynastic Egypt—and why it suddenly disappeared 
•	Shocking archaeological finds that reveal entire retinues killed to serve their king beyond death 
•	The political assassinations buried behind royal propaganda 
•	The Pharaohs who expanded, concealed, or weaponized sacrificial rituals 
•	How religion, fear, and absolute power shaped one of the most secretive traditions in the ancient world 
Perfect for fans of ancient history, true crime, Egyptology, anthropology, and dark historical mysteries, this book delivers a gripping blend of scholarship and narrative storytelling. Every chapter pulls you deeper into the ritual logic of a civilization where gods walked among men—and where appeasing them required unthinkable acts. 
If you believe you already know Ancient Egypt…Prepare to be proven wrong. 
Enter the tomb. Face the truth. Discover what—and who—the Pharaohs were willing to sacrifice.
