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?

Start: 11 May 2018 Finish: 6 December 2018 I see the drop of the cliff in the corner of my eye. I take an unsteady step backwards. "There is no running from here." He speaks calmly and holds up his arms as if he's approaching a scared animal. "Just come with me and everything will be alright." Even through my fevered vision I see his lie clear as day. He reaches for me in the little space between us. I pull away and feel my feet slip on the edge of the cliff. The fall feels like it lasts a lifetime. I hear someone scream my name. When I reach the water my legs turn into my tail. ~~~ I'm editing so the chapters with a title like ~this~ are edited

Iliana Katrakis couldn't care less about the will of the gods, and she's certain they feel the same way about her. After all, it's rare for the god-touched to live normal lives--and that's all she wants. Having spent the last three years aboard the merchant ship Airlea, Iliana couldn't be happier. Sure, her best friend Kain is the only one who knows she's a girl, but it's a good life. The work is simple, and her shipmates are the closest thing to a family she has. Fate, however, is not on her side. A storm tosses the Airlea wildly off course. Within the day, she's stranded, alone and injured, on a foggy island known only as Inna's Cove. She's given a choice: become one of the islands' goddess blessed sirens and rescue her best friend, or take her chance with the monster-infested woods. The choice seems obvious. That is, until the mercenaries arrive. Their captain wants a siren--and not even the threat of the goddess' wrath will change his mind. **Cover by Morana

"You're weird." "Says the girl covered in dog saliva." His eyes run up and down my body which only makes me raise my chin in challenge. "Oh and you're also a jerk, might as well add pervert to the list while we're at it." Is my reply. With a blink of an eye, he moves closer to me, so close that his breath fans my cheek, swaying the strands framing my face. His eyes fall on my lips and he bites his bottom lip seductively making an urge to kiss him take over me. "Better watch that pretty little mouth of yours, sweet Blue." He pulls away and before I can regain my senses and posture, he's up and out of my room, Jupiter trailing behind him with a wagging tail. Brayden King, even the name screams trouble. ______________________ WATTPAD FEATURED
