𝟏 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐧. __ Accalia Larren was born into a bloodline of hunters. A hunter family that rid the world of lycans and their descendants, werewolves. Having no choice but to befriend the hunt, what if one act of duty leads her into the arm's of her Alpha Mate? All too quickly, Accalia's life is signed away and she finds herself in the clutches of a nefarious Alpha that would rather harm her than free her. More beast than human, the Alpha speaks only of secrecy and manipulation. And as the moon courses through its cycle, waxing and waning, whispers of war will be spoken as a string of death follows as something within the shadows taunts lycans and hunters.

Ayn is a witch with healing powers. Shapeshifters have killed her parents and the only animals she cannot speak with are wolves. When she graduates from the Teaching Clan and finds out that she has to cross the River and live in the Wolves' Mountains for one year, she is less than amused. Kari, first-born shapeshifter Alpha, almost lost his wolf after the death of his mate. He could rise again and become the pack leader if only he would complete his training ...and find another suitable Luna. When he realizes that his second chance is his mother's guest, a daydreaming stubborn witch from across the River, he is less than amused. The bond may be a strong force, but can a witch walk the Wolves' Way and face the dangers it is paved with? **** "I need to stop..." I sigh, catching her wrist before her fingers reach the back of my neck, and I untangle her arm from me. She lingers on the recliner but now there is a big gap between our bodies. The warmth she left on my skin is quickly dissipating in the spring night. "Fine." Ayn stands and searches my eyes. Her scowl has my wolf whimper in submission and makes me curse my self-imposed hard line. "I am going to need your hoodie," she orders, stretching her hand out to me. "What?" I exclaim, briefly shocked by both the tone and the content of her words. My hands however are already executing her command, unzipping my jacket. "The last time I was able to sleep, I was covered with your hoodie. Your scent is comforting." She states it plainly as if it would be an obvious and broadly known fact. Like the Earth being round. Like two being a prime number. #1 in Healer - December 2021 #7 in Lycan - December 2022 ~95 000 words Cover photo by Jr Korpa via Unsplash Cover photo by Marc-Olivier Jodoin via Unsplash hi

When Aine is sent into the woods for her crimes, she accepts she'll be met with death. The beasts are known to kill any human that wanders into their territory, their razor-sharp teeth ripping through flesh and bone with practiced ease. Aine knows she'll be no different from all the others who have been executed before her, and when she's forced into the woods by her own people, it doesn't take long for the beasts to attack. What she doesn't expect is for them to take the shape of humans and spare her, and even more, for one to claim her as his own.

"I don't care for you. I don't care about you at all," I denied him, yanking my wrist from his hold. "You're nothing to me. Absolutely nothing." "So you're telling me if I were to leave right now. Walk out the door downstairs and never come back you wouldn't care." My chest tightened at just the thought of it. But I ignored that response and shrugged his voice of possibility off. "You can walk out right now if you want to. I'll be better off anyway." - Werewolves were going extinct at the hands of humankind. They were being hunted, captured, killed, and studied. They had no chance of effectively defending themselves against the advanced ministrations they were continuously becoming victim to. In this time, they have continued to live in disguise in hopes that they are not caught and executed. With the extensive knowledge the humans have gained on their existence the task has become incredibly difficult. Cyra, a member of pack Agwang, is one of the remaining werewolves. Becoming an orphan at age 8 she is used to being alone and only having herself to depend on. While sitting through a lecture she is alerted that her pack is being attacked by hunters. Without a pack and not yet having found her mate she is alone once again and left with only two options. She can either run and continue to survive the way she had been doing for 18 years or, fight back against a population that as a whole is opposed to her existence and determined to end it. It was a fight she thought she would be doing alone but Fate had other plans. After all, one can't battle the world on their own and except victory. This simple fact was unknown to Cyra but in time she would soon learn of it. *Mature Themes such as Violence and Sex*
