Raven has spent his entire life in the Thieves' Guild. But when he steals a strange dagger and refuses to give it back, he gets caught up in the conflict of an underground cult from his past, a war between two nations, a girl who despises the Guild, and a strange man who seems to come from another world entirely. His journey is filled with blood, darkness, and a strange power that he fears like Death themself.
A while back, I wrote this as my first foray into writing high fantasy (and writing books in general), but abandoned it due to it (and the characters) getting a little too dark, a little too gory, and a little too unlikeable. Now I am on to better things, but I thought I might upload the book here fore some feedback. Tell me what you think! I can't wait to hear the feedback from this cesspool of a website.
Thanks to my homie @Vegankraken for being there since the beginning and reading my manuscript before I put it here.

This is an excerpt only, the full story has been moved to Kindle.
A thousand years ago, black witches created the beast bound by enslaving and binding the souls of wolves to demons. Granting them the ability to take human form, and access to the world's magics.
After breaking free of servitude, and with more of their land being dominated by humanity, more and more of the beasts have mixed with humankind.
With the half bloods losing access to their powers with every generation, the pureblooded wolves have cemented themselves as the alphas of all the packs. The only ones who have retained the might of their magic.
There are two rules for a pureblood:
1. Keep your line pure.
2. Bear at least one child.
To ensure they remain in control, the punishment for failing in their duty is death.
When Natania's mother dies giving birth to her, her father, Alistair, abandons her to be raised by the pack's omegas. Where survival relies on compassion and community over brute strength.
After Alistair suddenly reclaims her at ten years old, Natania, desperate to earn her place and her father's approval, must navigate brutal training, pack politics, and a future she doesn't want to face. Grappling with the inequality within the pack, she struggles to unite them under her leadership.
But when her heart stirs for Leah, a half blooded wolf in her pack, the weight of her bloodline becomes too much to bear.
When a devastating attack shatters their world and a powerful, manipulative alpha is forced upon her, Natania must fight for her very survival, discovering that the greatest threats may come from within her own pack, and her own heart.
