Humans thought they were unique, that they were the best adapted animals. They were wrong. For just as long as humans have lived, so have the Ucari, creatures that take the form of animal and man. The Ucari lived their lives staying unknown to the Humans, in fear of how they would react to creatures that were different. Of course every now and than an Ucari would be seen shifting from man to animal, and so legends of creatures like Werewolves were born.
The peace was kept until a radical Ucari group showed the world what they were, a group that wanted the Ucari to be known as the most advanced creatures on Earth. War broke out between two sides that, those who attempted peace were forced to fight or die. A war that lasted as long as forty years, and ended in a disaster that swept the Earth.
It's been thirty years since the war ended, the Humans are thought to be extinct, while the remaining Ucari live scattered in an apocalyptic world. No laws, no economy. Only Survival.

It turned out you could have everything in the world and still feel like crap. Ally thought that was backwards. How could she have an amazing job, the best family, with new babies, and still feel like the entire world was crushing down on her shoulders? Loneliness was heavy.
Ashton did his best, but Ally did not forgive herself too easily for what happened in the past. Her last relationship had pretty much destroyed her, and rebuilding the ruins was no easy feat for either of them.
This meant things had to change. Ally didn't like change. No one liked change but Ally really, really, didn't like change. However, change was actually exactly what she needed.
