It is considered a great sin to have a female werewolf because it was said that they can outsmart the men and easily overpower them. And that an female alpha would lead to the destruction of the tribe. So, the great tribes male alphas got together and decided that all the females alive would be disowned and abandoned as babies or put to death as adults. The alphas made it a law, and if broken the death penalty would be sentenced for you and your family. Unless you have a half blood daughter. Half bloods are exactly that- half blood wolf, and cannot shift, but play key part in creating family's with full bloods. Matty's mother Sandra left the tribe with her husband when she found out she was having a girl, to try and save her. Sandra passed away giving birth to her, and Matty's step father vowed to protect her, because he loved her mother. Plus it was her mothers dying wish. He also knew matty was not his, but the alphas who would take no part in a female full blood and he remarried a unkind woman who had two sons already and together decided to have two more children. Ending up with a two half blood twins a girl named Anna and a boy named Gabe. Her step dads name was Travis, he has short black hair and when he shifts he is also black. To protect Matty instead of abandoning her he raised her like a son and to this day she still has to take medicine that makes her voice low, and wrap her chest to make sure no one finds out. Travis would tell her"It's a dog eat dog world out there Matty, no one knows besides you me and your mother of course. Not even Regina knows, nor either of the twins or older boys. I'm doing this to keep you safe. Remember, trust no one."
A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers.
