"I call it Chimera," Dr. Rowan revealed, "it's a serum that could... transform you, infuse you with the instincts and survival traits of multiple animals. The abilities to adapt, resist disease, and withstand pain. Your senses, your reflexes - they'd be heightened beyond anything we've seen!"
	"What's the cost?" Kane demanded.
	"You'll change, Kane. You'll become... more than you are now, something greater, something stronger, something with antibodies flowing through its veins - but something much, much less human."

In a world ravaged by a relentless plague known as the Shroud, humanity is on the brink of extinction. Desperate for a cure, scientists turn to genetic experimentation, merging human DNA with animal traits to create hopefully immune hybrids. But as the plague evolves, even the hybrids are no longer safe.
	Kane is a 17-year-old wolf hybrid desperate to save his only family. So when Dr. Isaac Rowan proposes a dangerous solution - injecting Kane with his cocktail of animal genes called Chimera - Kane recklessly agrees, willing to become a powerful but monstrous abomination if it means his sister will be saved.
Now, with heightened senses and conflicting animal instincts he can barely control, Kane becomes a living weapon. But he soon realizes that Dr. Rowan's true intentions go beyond saving his sister. As he battles the feral instincts threatening to take over his mind, Kane must navigate the collapsing civilization, fend off violent hybrids driven mad by the plague, and uncover the dark secrets behind the Shroud; all while struggling to remain human.
	Chimera is a story of survival, sacrifice, and the blurred line between humanity and monstrosity. As Kane descends deeper into his own internal darkness, he must decide how far he's willing to go - and what he's willing to become - in order to save the only family he has left.

**WARNING** ~contains explicit content that may not be acceptable to all viewers. discretion advised~ "No no no no..." My words trailed "NO!!" I screamed, pulling harshly at all my restraints, attempting to get free, hearing the harsh clank of metal on metal with every movement. Colder than the table beneath me, chills ran through my body. This couldn't be happening, please. A sadistic laugh rang through the room and my head fell in defeat as my eyes squinted closed, not wanting to see his face. "Yes, actually." I felt his disgusting, filthy hands trail down my arms. I could feel him leaning forwards, moving himself closer to me. I couldn't bring myself to open my eyes, so I just lay there, waiting for what I knew was to come. "You're mine now, mut." His voice made my body tense more than it already had. The way he sounded so angry. So possessive. I dared myself to speak, "W-what ar-are you gonna d-do to me?" My voice shook and wavered so much in my fear that it was numb to my ears. Alpha Dave let out a low, calloused chuckle that sent chills throughout my body. He said, in a deadly low voice, "I'm going to remind you who you belong to." * DISCLAIMER- In this story world, each person gets five potential mates! * Blake Daniels' story has been one tragedy after another, Complications littering his route, tripping him on his journey through life. At this point, he's entirely disgusted by his Complacency. For as long as he can remember, he has been at the whim of everyone's desires, neglecting his own. This left him wondering: what it is he wants? Could it be the sweet relief of death? Escape? Or simple Convalescence? *** ~Ms.Witch *** BOOK ONE IN THE ~Escape~ SERIES!

He's been considered exotic or a freak depending on your viewpoint. After years of fighting he has taken a job to help shape up the next generation. One of his students catches his eye. (the first few pages are from Alex's viewpoint then the rest is from Tyler's viewpoint. Changed up to better get into the story.) Excerpt: As for my background, I was born to a rogue mother. No I don't know who my father is, don't bother asking. I spent the years up till I was eighteen bouncing all over the country and learning all kinds of things. I joined the human military where I spent the next eight years. Don't ask what I did it's classified and you aren't cleared for that. Upon discharge I went to work for the High Lycan council. I can't talk about my work their either, so don't ask. The last three years I've just been relaxing, a friend of a friend came to me offered me this position and told me that their pilot school was going to be shut down if they couldn't get all you hoodlums reigned in. I decided it might be fun so here I am." I looked around the assembly and saw a lot of attentive faces. No doubt wondering if I was lying or not. "On what I am. The rumors don't lie, I am a Chimera." the entire room seemed to gasp. I sighed. I hated having to announce that but if I didn't I got all kinds of looks and questions best to have it out at the beginning. "For those of you who don't know the truth of what that is. A chimera in mythology is a creature that is a hybrid. In medical terms it is someone or something that has a genetic duality. There's something to ask Mr Norris about in biology tomorrow." I heard a few laughs and giggles. "For my part I am called Chimera because I have more than one full shape to shift into and can blend them at will. It makes me very powerful and no I'm not going to show you." I heard someone say 'aw man. That'd be cool.'
