⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾𖤓 ⋆⁺₊⋆ I walk down the corridor, the smell of cleanliness and order like a foreign smell to me. It jars my mind. It's not the only thing that's jarring. There's my side, of course, my throbbing head ache, and we can't forget my ruined leg. But I'm whining too much. I wonder where he is. That little shit. Left me bleeding out in the hold. Brain feels woozy again. I jab myself with my final pack of stims. It takes a moment for it to work, but soon my hands feel fidgety and my mind painfully sharper again. Ugh. Wait-- where's my weapons? Did I drop them? I look back and see nothing, then look at my trembling hands. They're sheet white. Fuck. I slump down onto my knees, and gravity does the rest of the job of bringing me flat onto the smooth, white floors. ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾𖤓 ⋆⁺₊⋆⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾𖤓 ⋆⁺₊⋆⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾𖤓 ⋆⁺₊⋆ ⚠ Trigger Warnings: ⚠ PLEASE READ!! ⚠ - Sexism - Violence - Self harm - Gore/graphic descriptions - Cussing/offensive content - Mentions of drugs/drug use ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾𖤓 ⋆⁺₊⋆ Entry for the Open Novella Contest 2026.

When aspiring Alpha, Kyle Woodson, learns that she has to train under her brooding hot enemy, Jackson Harlowe, she'll stop at nothing to prove she belongs at Alpha Academy, even when all signs point to her being his Luna. *** Kyle Woodson has only ever wanted one thing her entire life and that is to become an Alpha. She arrives at Alpha Academy, where any Alpha worth their fur graduates. Once there, she's assigned to Jackson Harlowe's pack unit, the son of her father's enemy. There isn't much she can do about it, even if their fathers have been in a territory war for twenty years. Kyle makes up her mind to bite her tail and count the days. But training to be an Alpha is much harder than she realized. This year, the dean creates a competition between the units. Jackson knows that if he wants to win, he'll have to train Kyle himself, so they work out a deal. But a growing anti-female Alpha movement starts spreading on campus, forcing Jackson to protect Kyle. And things take a turn when Kyle finally undergoes full werewolf maturity--luminesence. Now all she can seem to do is obsess over Jackson. The harder they deny their bond, the closer they become. Can she turn her back on everything she's worked so hard for? And what will her father do once he learns she is falling for the enemy?
