Yaga's Riders

As with most beginnings, it started with death. When I had nothing left to lose, I traveled to the hut in the woods, where no one dared approach. The witch who lived there recognized the darkness in my soul and took me under her wing to witness her reign of terror firsthand, and eventually, to inherit her legacy as my own. Now, I'm the monster they fear, the one humans avoid at all costs. In this welcome isolation, I've attempted to forget my past and the future that was taken from me. Until three men appear, somehow able to break through my protective wards and see me in my true form. While resistant to their intrusion, I recognize they may be the ones I've been waiting for - the ones I need to ascend to my full power. Too bad I would rather grind their bones than invite them in. But something is mysteriously devouring the forest, and I suspect the threat may be the same one I barely escaped many moons ago. If it is, he will find me a more worthy opponent than the last time we met. I am the Yaga and I may be broken, but my edges are sharp. The Yaga's Riders series is based on the folklore of Baba Yaga, with creative liberties taken. It features mysterious forces, a legendary witch, multiple POV (including MM) and a cliff-hanger.

Four hundred years is a long time to wait for your fated mates only to have two of them cruelly ripped away. Suddenly finding ourselves in the hands of the nefarious Facility - run by my final mate's father - was enough to make my claws twitch under my skin. The only reason I hadn't reduced these humans to ribbons of severed flesh was that there was information to uncover, and a swan shifter to find...hopefully alive. I suppose I'll behave. Even if we were to escape, we wouldn't be safe. A mysterious force is destroying my forest and the veil between our world and the Nav is growing thin. My former mentor betrayed me, an enemy from my past is circling, and the god of the underworld is demanding that I return to his realm. The past has returned with a vengeance, and I need all three Riders by my side in order to claim my power and fulfill my legacy - before we run out of time.

A legacy like mine was never meant to be easy; shaky alliances, deals with the deathless, and an enemy far more powerful than previously believed all weigh heavily on my shoulders. I'd hidden behind the mask of the Yaga for so long, I'd forgotten what it meant to be human. By claiming the fated mate bond with my Riders, I've rediscovered parts of myself I'd buried centuries ago, but I wonder if digging up the dead has its own consequences. Our mission to unearth the key needed to stop The Devouring leads us deep into the decaying heart of humanity, but our greatest threat may come from within. As my men and I struggle to overcome the ghosts of our pasts, I pray we can learn to master our collective power - before it consumes us entirely. I am Vasilisa, and I refuse to accept my fate.
