The Lover-Eating Mantis Queen

Iris, the newly ascended mantis matriarch of an alien hive, is suppressed by four powerful Alpha regents who seek to use her as a breeding puppet. She breaks free from drug control and unleashes alluring, mind-controlling pheromones to conquer her foes one by one. The warlike general surrenders and turns into crystal energy after mating sacrifice; the twin priest brothers fall under her spell and offer their pure power; the rational duke cuts off his arm to escape but is eventually subdued. Absorbing their elite genes, Iris breeds powerful insect soldiers, seizes the empire, and transforms human starships into living hive warships. She broadcasts a cosmic summon to all mighty Alphas across galaxies, embarking on an endless interstellar conquest to gather top-tier genes and solidify her supreme matriarch reign.
