In a world where childhood nightmares become reality, humanity faces its most terrifying nightmare Yet: monsters are real, very real in fact. But these aren't the creatures of folklore; they are werewolves, powerful, dangerous and terrifying beasts who have emerged from the shadows to claim dominion over the earth. As cities fall and society crumbles, humans are subjected to brutal genetic tests, not for disease or identity, but to determine if they are 'mates'-chosen breeding partners for the werewolf population. ----------------------- When they revealed themselves, it was unexpected and frightening, they took over so quickly in the blink of an eye almost. First the war between mankind and them, mankind fought hard, but they took them down, so easily they made it look effortless. After that there was nothing, mankind could do, they started changing the laws, starting ripping families apart, taking away everything humanity once stood for. Adult humans were sent straight to what they called "The M Lab" were they were tested for a specific DNA type that would show if they were a possible MATE for these creatures. Those who did not possess this specific gene are made to be slaves of any kind. And the children were put in a place they called "The Center" where they would stay until the age of 18 when they would be tested to prove if they possessed the gene that made them a potential mate for a werewolf. They then are sent to "The M Lab" were they will partake in the reaping. The fate of a slave under the laws of these beasts is cruel but no fate is crueler than being a MATE.

THIS BOOK IS COMPLETED but it will be HEAVILY EDITED and have things added to it in the future. I wrote this book when I was much younger. I didn't expect it to reach this amount of popularity so I will devote my time to bettering it in the future. ------------------ Every year, in our village and the neighbouring villages, we encounter, on what is suppose to be the most divine and celebrated day of the year, a visit from the 'big bad wolf'. At least that's what the children call him. Adults like to call him "inhuman" or a "wild ravenous monster". However, the majority settle for "beast". No one knows why he ruins this specific day for us, the day we can celebrate our species: werewolves. Some despise him for taking this day from us and forcefully exchanging our merry and joyful laughs to screams of fear. When that specific day of the year approaches us, none of us are ever prepared for it. He always comes at night. We are told to lock our windows, draw our curtains and our doors. We are told to hide. There's one main rule that we have: don't look at him. Because if you do, no one knows what'll happen to you. Maybe that's the worse part, not knowing your fate. Not knowing the outcome of your foolish actions. If he comes roaming your streets, you have a right to be scared. Us "maidens" are always encouraged to hide ourselves the most, it's women that he supposedly wants more. However, I believe that that is a cautionary excuse. He'll take you, no matter how old or how young, no matter how innocent or how corrupt, no matter your gender, all it takes is a look. Either he looks at you, or you look at him, or you both exchange looks. Either way, his senses will pick you up, and you can't hide. It'll be too late. The amazing cover is by @-blackrogue. The amazing aesthetics in this book are by @mackreadsbooks24 Highest Rankings: 1st in #werewolflove 1st in #fierce 1st in #defiant 1st in #feminism 1st in #monster + many others
