Olivia Grace, a regular human girl, who wanted nothing more than to skate by her last year in college and pass the MCAT. The world she lived in was far more than ordinary, but it was the only world she knew. Fairies, vampires, witches and wizards, and--of course--werewolves. As a sickly orphan, she was dropped off at an orphanage in the Silverstrike Pack, raised with humans and wolves alike. She never was officially a part of the pack, like most humans, and in fact, they hated humans. She was fine with it, fine with living a mundane life. Until he stepped into her coffee shop.
Felix Vaughn, the newly placed alpha of the Silverstrike Pack, was fighting a hidden war that he was not sure he could finish. Shadows and monsters were creeping out of the woodwork. When the humans that resided in his pack started dying with three mysterious slashes, he knew something was up. While the wolves didn't care for the humans in his pack, he couldn't stay idly by. This was a problem that would cause the nature of his pack to crumble in his very hands. Especially when her life was at risk.
The girl with no wolf.
An extra mouth to feed.
A liability.
A defenseless miscreation.
Seraphina had heard it all. She had felt it all too. The bone aching bruises, the defenseless claw scratches just shy of her neck on the edges of her collarbone, she had seen it all too.
It had been so long since it had started that she couldn't recall a time when the degradation was compliments and not insults. Now, it was all she ever expected. If she had known five years ago that not having a wolf would cause this much hate she would have begged her parents to move to another pack.
It felt like an eternity since it all happened. Or rather what didn't happen.
She still could not shift.
She was defective.
A mistake in the gene pool.
But she didn't know she would end up like this. She couldn't have, just like she couldn't have expected to come face to face with the Alpha Slayer. A man casted in shadow. Not many had ever seen his face, but that didn't make him any less real.
Alphas after all were dethroned from the likes of him. Word spreads quickly. So, when Seraphina ends up in his line of sight she has a lot more to figure out than just not having a wolf, because it very well might cost her, her life.
