The future is shifting, and humans are willing to do whatever it takes for the power to remain on their side.
A village of Shifters is discovered, and they do as they have done in the past. They slaughter and torture every one of them, except for two. They leave the two huddled in one another's arms to watch the mass killing of the only thing they'd ever known.
The humans have decided to repent for their past by giving the two Shifters a chance, something that hasn't happened in all of history. And what better way to show their ability to change what they've become known for than to send them to one of the Gordon boys who's next in line for Human Chair in the counsel?
Will the Shifters show that not all of their kind lie in a blood of betrayal or will they provide evidence that that's the only thing they know? (Second installment of the Gordon series. Cayne Gordon's story.)

Sentiments & Reason ✓ (Dogs, Bats & Monkeys series, Book II)
"Dad's gone," my cousin's voice was barely above a whisper. "You must come home for the Evaluations," she uttered and the phone line went dead. ***** After Keri's Uncle - the Alpha of the Silver Bullets pack - loses his battle with cancer, the young woman is summoned away from University and back home to take part in the Evaluations - a series of challenges that would help determine who would take on the role of the new leader. Once the responsibility of caring for over a hundred werewolves falls on Keri, she must stay with her pack in Woodville, relinquishing her lifelong dream of becoming a lawyer. The young female soon discovers that her new position is even more demanding that she'd always thought it would be, but she is determined to prove herself and justify the trust placed on her. Respected for her good judgment, physical abilities and compassion, the twenty-four year old lacks in one of the most important aspects an Alpha could: she has yet to choose a mate, or so the pack thinks. Little do they know, Keri has already recognized the man to bear that title, but deciding that his personality and lifestyle might prove detrimental to her wards, she gives up on another dream: the dream of being with someone she could confide in and always depend on. With an unknown enemy determined to ruin the Silver Bullets, never before had Keri needed that man as much as she does now. Things only get worse when he somewhat reluctantly offers his help; now Keri must fight not only the pack's foe, but also herself as she's forced to work with the person her heart desires but her mind does not approve of. ***** • Updates on Sundays • Proofread • Draft (basic edits done) • Best rating so far: #89 in Paranormal © 2018 Dilyana Kyoseva (CatMint5) All Rights ReservedComplete
The Female Human Alpha
What started as her biggest regret, turned into pure joy for Lillian. Well, most days. If you asked, she would tell you she suffered a moment of insanity and her hormones got the best of her. How else could she explain a one night stand with her greatest enemy? Fletcher Fitz grew up in a small town full of wolf shifters. With only a handful of humans, he despised them. Instead of people to protect, he saw them as the reason he could not be true to himself. Lillian, as the only human in a class full of wolf shifters, was the victim of bullying throughout school. The night before Fletcher left town for his first shift at eighteen, he succumbed to his desire to be near Lillian and seduced her. He intended that to be it, to get her out of his system and never look her way again. Fate had other plans. Lillian tried to contact the father of the twins growing in her belly, but his parents refused to hear her out. So, she gave up, and moved away once the people in her small hometown affected her young sons. The sneered comments and whispered insults cut them deep, so Lillian took them to her grandparents winter home to spare them the small town cruelty. Now, fifteen years after Fletcher left, he's returning home to accept the mantle of alpha from his father and lead the pack. But, Lillian is also coming home at the same time. Her grandparents passed away, so she's come to wish them one final farewell. Poor Fletcher is in for one hell of a surprise. Not only is he the father of teenage twin sons, but their mother is not the meek little girl from his memories. No, his sons are alphas, therefore only a stronger alpha can provide the support they need to grow up confident but respectful. Who is this stronger alpha? Why, their mother, of course. This story is one of my pet projects, so I make no guarantees about how often it will be updated. But I hope you enjoy it!
