Leila Ardeneux was born into a family of werewolves. By every principle of biology and logic, she should be one. But something is wrong with her, something that has caused her skin to be hairless and her teeth unsharp, something that has made her an outcast among her pack. She found her only solace in her best friend, Zakai Belfiore. He meant the world to her and she to him. They grew up together, playing childish games and pulling spiteful pranks. It was them against the world and they were inseparable, until they were torn apart. When they were fourteen, Zakai's family left the pack, thereby forcing him to leave Leila. After two years without him, Leila leaves as well. She runs away from her abusive pack to build a life as a human. For three years it works, and for the first time, her life is almost peaceful. Then one night a familiar scent wafts through the air, a dead body appears under a bridge, and someone is stalking her new human family. As the past converges upon the volatile present, Leila finds that she cannot outrun her blood so easily--or the right her birth has damned her to. Weekly updates! Cover made by @Silverless
