"What. Is. Your. Deal?!" I clapped in the beautiful man's gorgeous face between every word, accenting question. "You either come up to me and flirt with this," I ran my hands up and down the sides of my body. "Or you back the hell off, stop staring, and stop acting like a total creeper!"
The tall, handsome man didn't respond, except for the tiny smile that played at his lips, and just kept staring into my eyes. I turned to walk away from him, frustrated that he wasn't saying anything. But as soon as I took a step away, a hand shot out and grabbed my arm, turning me back around.
The contact that the beautiful man's hand made with my arm created tingles that spread throughout my entire body. They were weird but oddly nice and warm.
I looked back up at the gorgeous man's face just as he uttered the first word I had heard from him all night.
"Mine."

Hello guys! Just wanted to let you know that this story is entirely mine and it popped right out of my brain womb, allowing me to nurture and care for it as if it was my own child.
A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers.
*****
It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life.
