Daniel grew up under the tyranny of the most vicious alpha the world has seen in half a millennium. Emotions were weaknesses, weaknesses were threats, and threats were always eliminated. Hardened into the rogue she is today, she continues to do the only thing she knows; she fights. Fights for a better life for her son; fights for the justice she believes is due; fights to not get distracted by an alpha who claims they share an unbreakable bond. Distractions, however, are hard to ignore and are not always wise to. Some distractions can end your life, and some can save it. All Daniel has to do is decide which type of distraction Adrian is, and the clock is ticking. "Out of suffering have emerged the strongest of souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars." ~Khalil Gibran

The Alpha Initiative is a very secret, very illegal, experimental project headed by a dangerous scientist who is far more than just a "little" mad. Forced breeding between different shifter species, gene splicing, and inhumane experiments are a few of the means utilized to create the perfect species. This new breed of shifter will be the alpha of all species that will head the world into a new era of domination, where humans are no longer at the top of the food chain. Alex, aka Test Subject A, has been experimented on by mad scientists from her earliest memories. She's a hybrid shifter, born and bred in captivity solely for her unique ability to adapt her shift form to dominate any situation, and any opponent. These scientists will do everything and anything to keep her in their possession. During transportation to another facility across the ocean, the ship Alex is being held on is raided by pirates and she is taken prisoner. An illusion that was put on Alex to mask her female scent and make her appear male, may be the only thing that saves her from a much worse fate at the hands of the ruthless pirates. Only problem is, if she ever shifts, the illusion will break and reveal her true self. Is the fact she's female the real reason for keeping her identity hidden, or is it something with much worse consequences if ever brought to light? Which will be the lesser of two evils in the end: pirates or mad scientists?

With her pack at stake, Alastrine is forced to gather courage and persist in the face of danger. Whether it will bring her fortune, is up to fate. Both equal forces with equal passions, tied by the moon and bonded by their wolves. What will happen when they meet? - Alastrine and Orion are two different people. One lives the luxury of an Alpha, with silk sheets and a warm bed at night, while the other struggles to keep warm in the harsh winds of the cold, battling the forces as they try to stay alive within in a world that shuns the alone and deems them unworthy to live. It's no wonder that they'd not see eye to eye when they met, but an unforeseen bond would ultimately bring them together. Everyone carries secrets, but hers might go deeper than he's ever seen. He might be ruthless, but there's an even darker side to it. Their wolves are wild and defiant, both battling for dominance. But only one will stand on top.
