The Shadow of the East is a monster. 
Tyrin Caderyn is no better.
They've met before, but memory painted each a ghost and a flicker of familiarity. Both of them hail from strong and vicious bloodlines. Time and tragedy and choice bind them together. 

War is on the horizon, and Shadow is in the midst of schemes and plans greater than her. She's on the run from a man she learned to hate, and her own past. Her secrets can destroy her. 

Tyrin is an Elite warrior for the Ilystari Realm and answers only to the king and queen. When he's sent to hunt down a powerful female, he doesn't question the orders. But when he meets her, everything changes.

Darkness encroaches and alliances break. Bonds are formed and friendships shatter. There is a greater power at play than either of them realized. Has fate drawn them together, or something stronger?

--

She huffed a quiet laugh. "Well, I suppose I'll get paid one way or another for his death. If you let me keep his body, you have a deal."

Tyrin darted his eyes back to gauge the honesty of her response, but she sounded sincere. He finally nodded. Her grin was nothing shy of wicked. Something inside his chest reared it's sleeping head and purred at that expression.

"I hope you and I never meet again. These Realms aren't ready for us."

Weren't  ready for her, he wanted to correct. A shiver of a promise zinged through his blood and  he grinned back at her. "What's your name, little assassin?"

She started melting back into the shadows - back the way she'd come to give him the privacy of the kill. "I am no one and nothing. Forget about me, pretty male. It won't do to dwell on a shadow."
And then she was gone.

Ash Harlin is one of the best assassins the world has ever seen. She has a reputation of being wild and wicked. The werewolf community keep out of her way. She wants the world at her feet. She has a secret. Keeran Helix is the son of two powerful alphas, and as soon as he finds a mate, is destined to ascend as the pack leader. He's strong - uncannily so even for a werewolf. He was looking for a mate that would help lead, that would be good for the pack. But when he ascends, it'll be with a killer by his side. -- "You want to test my patience tonight, little Ash, don't you?" He purred against the base of my neck. I stiffened at the contact that sent shivers along my skin. "I wasn't going to come, but seeing as you forced us all here, I couldn't just cancel my plans." I sensed his hand raise to grip my neck and whirled, catching his wrist and quirking an eyebrow. "Ah, ah, ah," I tutted. "Someone's being a bad boy. You ask permission before you touch." "Even if it's mine?" His eyes flashed a dark bronze, a smirk playing over his mouth. He hadn't tried to extract his hand from my grip. He wanted to play. The crowd stood in rapt silence - not even the Alphas were moving. The music had been switched off, and any noises were muted in the wake of our dance. "Yours?" I snorted and let his hand drop. I took another step back. It was my turn to circle, noting the easy way in which he stood, the bunching of his thigh muscles and the tension in his shoulders. "I am mine alone." "And yet fate decided to mate us." He cocked his head to the side as I rounded him. "Or do you want to continue pretending it didn't?"

BOOK 1 'By this time, I had had enough and was going to make a stand. I growled, leaping to my feet and almost knocking James over. "We are never leaving this place Jenny! We're stuck here forever and you bloody well know it! Stop with your nonsense theories and plans and get your head into the real world! We. Are. Never. Leaving!" I snarled, my breathing irregular and my eyes stone-hard. James frowned, getting up and walking over to Jenny to comfort her. She was frozen with shock at my outburst, a stray tear sliding down her cheek. I had to give it to her, my words were harsher than I had expected, and she took them with a grain of salt. She was strong now; and we all knew it. "Well, if that's how you feel." She whispered, turning her back to me and allowing James to hug her, most likely more for his own comfort. Jeez. I felt so bad, that I almost apologized. But I didn't.' -------------------------------------------------------- Shadow Claw; a female creature of the race of Claws.

Elijah didn't break me, just my heart. 💔🔨 So, the LAST thing I needed was to run into my ex's best friend, Gray on the street. Who cares if he's hotter than lava? Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel.
