Familiar

The witch was placing items across her altar now, in a specific order. Dried flowers. A long, serrated blade. Three black stones. A vial of murky green water. A handful of red earth, bound in deerskin. They all shone ethereally in the light.

He stepped up to the altar, preparing himself. He was the final piece- the blood of a powerful supernatural given willingly. As her familiar, there was no better candidate than himself.
Only he had a plan to stop her in her tracks, one that could come at great cost to him if he didn't perform the next steps exactly right. If he faltered even slightly, one of two things would happen: the lesser evil was that he'd be exposed as a saboteur, an impostor posing as a trusted ally to the dark witch. The greater evil was that she would somehow succeed and make her leap of great power, and be a truly unstoppable Queen, who would control the other supernatural species without rival.
He could not let that happen.
He must be precise.

Kieran MacKerrow is a werewolf assigned to infiltrate the inner circles of a powerful dark witch with one objective: stop her.
When his plans go wrong and his brother is put in harm's way, Kieran is exposed and cursed by the witch to remain as a wolf forever. Only he is not alone, and magical allies have the ability to reverse the dark witch's sentence- but first, he has to find them.

Lara Redding is a veterinarian with extensive experience dealing with injured wildlife. When a mangled wolf is brought to her clinic, she's awed by his abnormal size and strength. The night of a full moon reveals to her that he is not quite what she thought- a man standing in the place of an animal- who asks her for help. And the stakes, he says, are high.

Lara and Kieran race against the dark witch to reverse his sentence, save his family, and stop her ascent to Queen over all supernaturals before the next full moon. Can they make it in time?
