The boy grabbed the arm Laura was holding the axe, catching her off guard. She struggled, pulling hard to get away- but he was too strong. 

He twisted her arm as the axe dangled helplessly from her fingertips. She chocked out a strangled yelp, dropping it to the floor; the eco growling no louder than the silent raging fires of fear growing in her chest. The boy loosened his grip for a mere second, but it was all Laura needed. Taking the chance, she wrenched her arm away and took her escape. Her drumming heartbeat alining with her quickened steps.

Not even five steps out, the master thieve caught her once more. Grabbing her, pinning her to the wall and looking straight into her eyes. Laura's heart was racing, and her breathing came out in short strangled gasps. She was frightened out of her life. She felt as if stones where tied to her feet. 

"Sorry doll, but you're coming with me," the boy smirked. He pushed her to her knees, grabbed a nearby pipe and swung it at her head. Before she could even scream, a silent blackness invaded her vision, and he watched as she slumped to the ground.

Satisfied, the boy let out a sigh.
"This is gonna be fun." 
He cracked his neck as a wide grin stretched across his handsome face

"I'm such a bother to yall." I choke out. "I'm so fucking weak. I can't even defend myself." Xavier's arms unwrap from my body, and his hands hold my teary face. "I'm a worthless h-human."

Lucy Parker Your average eighteen-year-old girl right? Wrong. When Lucy was eleven she shifted into a huge red fox. When she shifted she got this 'voice' in her head called Faith, that said she was her 'inner fox'. Over the years Lucy started shifting into other animals, from birds to cats, big and small, to wolves, small rodents, and much more. Lucy has been an orphan since she was ten when her parents died in a car crash. She is now eighteen with her own apartment and is about to start a new job but nothing ever turns out right for Lucy now does it? When Lucy is walking in the park one evening, she is kidnapped by three guys, that just won't let her go... *Some inserts not entire chapter* *They were chasing me but I was nearly in the forest when something tackled me sending sparks flying wherever they touched me. When I realised it was... Xavier? Who tackled me, I started to struggle in his hold, but I couldn't get out. "Calm down I'm not going to hurt you." He said softly with a small smile. I snorted, that's what they all say. "No, you're not, but I'm going to hurt you." I replied before bringing up my leg and kicking him where the sun doesn't shine. This caused him to roll off of me and I jumped up. so quick I nearly missed it, Xavier stepped forward and grabbed me so my back was pressed against his chest and his arms were holding my arms by my sides. I struggled, but that's when I realised, I'm too short to ram my head into his chin, my arms were held down and my legs completely useless. I. Was. Trapped.* The Werewolf And The Shapeshifter, it was fate at its finest If you want the full prologue read the werewolf and the shapeshifter...I would appreciate it ;) Warning: there will be swearing and some mild other crap

"Shift." His voice hit me like a serrated blade as he stepped out of the crude semicircle of hardened wolves that had formed around me. I pushed myself off of the cold floor for what felt like the thousandth time that day, wiping the small trail of blood coming off of my lip and down my chin. "I won't ask you again." My limbs felt like lead, these wolves had been at me for hours trying to get me to shift into my wolf, unbeknown to them was that their efforts would forever be futile considering the fact my wolf wouldn't make an appearance for me even when I begged. I seriously doubted she would suddenly pop up as a result of their abusive tactics. Instead of explaining my circumstances, driven by a bizarre combination of adrenaline and fatigue, I leaned back on my heels and sent the largest loogie I'd ever conjured flying over and landing squarely between the eyes of the man before me. oOoOoOoOoOo As a late bloomer who was incapable of shifting yet, let alone making any contact with her wolf, Olive Ludovic's life was not off to the best start. Growing up, constantly being tormented and taunted by those around her forced Olive to grow a tough skin and work even harder, despite the fact she was without her wolf. When her home is taken over by a dark pack, life seems to only get worse for Olive as it is quickly discovered that her mate is none other than Matteo, the Alpha of the very pack that was terrorizing her people. It seems to her, that life is just a little bit easier for Olive the Other Werewolves. oOoOoOo hello! just fyi there will be mature language and content as the book progresses so i'm letting ya know now ;) HIGHEST WEREWOLF RANKING = 2, LOVE RANKING = 3 (out of 1.8 million books XD), MAGIC RANKING = 1, ROMANCE RANKING = 1 (out of 1.5 million books XD), VAMPIRE RANKING =1!

"𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐠𝐞, 𝐬𝐨 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞." He glared at her with a cold, harsh expression and said, "What am I supposed to do with you, my doll?" Fear washed over her, but she gathered her strength and begged, "Please let me go. My children need me. They're so young, and they can't survive without me, please." Tears streamed down her beautiful amber eyes, but she tried to hold back her emotions in front of him. The thought of her little ones made her feel suffocated and hopeless. The man seemed moved by her tears, but his face remained bitter as he said, "You should have thought about this before you ran away with that bastard." Shocked and hurt, she shot back, "Do you even hear what you're saying? Do you have any proof of these accusations?" She continued, "How could you think so little of me? We've been together for almost four years. I always believed you loved me." Tears filled her eyes as she added, "This isn't love-love is built on trust. I trusted you completely, never questioning why you came home late, why you seemed to hate me, or why you left me on our wedding night. Yet here you are, ruining my reputation without any proof." He ignored her desperate questions and tightened his grip on her neck, his eyes turning red with fury. "Trust? You talk about trust. It was my faith in love that kept you alive. If anyone else were in your place, I'd kill them without a second thought." She struggled to escape his choking hold, fighting desperately. Suddenly, he released her and walked away, his anger clear as he never looked back. Coughing and gasping for air, she lay there, her body trembling. Tears blurred her vision as she felt like a broken soul. The nightmare her life had become seemed overwhelming. 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤-𝟏: 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬

Her vision blurry, eyes teary, ears ringing, as her head starts buzzing from the hard impact. She watches, as the red shining droplet falls and taints everything in its own darkness. She hears muffled voices, just as she feels a tingling sensation when she realises a hand on her shoulder and it's owner. A sob leaves her lips, when she realises what she has to do. His voice sounds in her ears, as she memorizes that baritone for the last time directed to her, "Are you okay?", with care. She pulls her hand, gathering her energy as silent pained tears falls down her face concentrating her powers. Suddenly, he jerks and falls stiff on his back, unable to move his body. His eyes widened as he registers what she is going to do, all while whispering, "No, no, please don't...". Grabbing a tree, she stands up painfully slow with tears running down her face uncontrollably. She takes a step towards him and sits on his torso, as she wails for everything happened to him and for everything she could have had, but now can't. To the Gods, for cursing her with her damned destiny. He slowly cups her face, and joins their heads released from the powers unknown to her, as he comforts her, "Don't worry, we will be over this, together." Her sobs turns quiet, just when suddenly again his body jerk back in same position, as she apologize, "Sorry, but I can't be selfish enough, not for you, for me and for us." As she slams her fisted kuckles down his head again and again.
