It was bound to happen. 

When the tribes in the South conglomerated into the Southern Union, they thought that they could rewrite their past. They thought that their Unification could bring about a new age – an age of new intellectual thought where primitive heathen concepts would be squashed underfoot and peace and equality would reign. 

It has been ten years since the Unification. And the South has returned from a democratic state to a vicious monarchy where only the most ancient laws of the land are being followed; death to those that oppose the King.

But this is not a story of the South. This is a story about the Midlands, gateway to the wild Northern reaches, where traditions are still crucial to survival. Where every day is a struggle and only the strongest can survive. This is the story of the rebellion of the Midland Woods under the command of the Canium, leader of the most primitive, brutal, and wild clan on the continent.

THIS IS NOT A WEREWOLF STORY IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM. 

[Any suggestions for editing would be greatly appreciated! 
I will get around to them eventually. I promise.]

The Bancroft Legacy by BabyD54

'In a world of the supernatural, if you're human, you're obviously not normal.' ~~~~~~~~~~ Aiden Cadwell has all a guy his age needs. A dependable family, a loyal best friend, and a devoted girlfriend. Or at least what he thought he had anyways. Battling his last year of high school is difficult. Avoiding the trauma his cheating ex-girlfriend and unloyal ex-best friend have left behind is even more difficult. If only high school drama was all he had to worry about. Aiden's life only gets more complicated when a new mysterious stranger appears. Secrets come to light, enemies come out of the shadows, and a new world comes to life. Laylani Blackwood's only purpose in life was one thing, to serve and protect the Bancrofts at any cost. Her grandparents had served them, her parents as well, now it was her turn to carry on the legacy. She was prepared for many things but babysitting a mortal in the mundane world was not one of them, but the king needed a guardian he could trust and she needed a way to prove herself. Her new charge? The lost Bancroft heir apparently. She was definitely not prepared for that. Nor was she prepared for the awkwardly charming, not-so-confident, and aggravating guy she now had to protect with her life. Was it too late to ask for a different job? ~~~~~~~~~~ A/N: Y'all know the usual warnings everyone puts out and they aren't any different here. This is my work, hard work, and I would very much like it to stay that way please. There is strong language and possible content, you've been warned. I'm still a new writer and learning so work with me here and help me fix it, NICELY. This is not a continuously updated story, it is a hobby at the moment that I do in my free time.

The Ember Within by FathimaFaheen

"I'm not sure what I want, but when I do, I'll move mountains to get it. My desires aren't tethered to anyone else; they're solely about me. Sometimes, even the most delicate things can seem dangerous but these things are too fragile to be counted. I can choose him, but this fragile choice could ruin me or my cause, and I can't afford that, even if it means the end of my life. But the sight of him takes my breath away. I've met countless men in my nineteen years, but why is he different? Why is he the one whose gaze makes my heart, Calista's heart of iron, beat? " Scarlet the elusive leader of the Rebel, has dedicated her life to overthrowing King Edward's tyrannical rule over Redelvrid. For years, she has inspired her people to fight for justice and freedom, using fear and intimidation to keep the king in check. But when she unexpectedly discovers that the person she's been looking out as her only family for years is a target of her rebellion, her world is shattered. As Scarlet navigates this moral dilemma, she is confronted with new challenges and threats. Dark magic is being used against her people, and her comrades are falling victim to mysterious deaths. Now the question that arises is will she continue to pursue her goals, knowing it means eradicating the person who has always been her anchor? Or will she abandon her cause ?

King Micajah by a_soft_bun

Years before his birth, it was prophesised that his soul would never be whole, that his heart would never beat in rhythm to his other half. Micajah was born with a dark soul, a soul that was corrupt. A soul that was more wolf than human. A soul incomplete. Nothing but an imperfect creation that walks earth. He will never have a true mate. When his turn to rule the wolf kingdom arises, after the death of his mother, he is forced to choose a female that has already been rejected from her true mate. Alongside his rise to the throne, the wolf kingdom begins to tear itself apart. An uprising begins. No one wants a creature, hated by the Moon Goddess herself, to rule. Even if he is the only royal heir by blood. Even if it is what tradition dictates. A male more beast than man, can never yield humanity, let alone love. But humanity can be learnt, and love seizes all - even those with corrupt souls.

The Alphas rebellious Mate. by CosmicCandle

almost a hundred years ago, the beasts in the shadows, known as werewolves, made themselves known, their attack was so unexpected, no one even knew they existed till the night sky was blazing a deep orange with the fires from destruction across the world as they completely ravaged different areas of powers. Humans were no match to counter them so suddenly, countless lives were lost on both sides, mostly on the humans. Humans were more resilient than the beasts expected, meaning the war that began lasted much longer, surprising the murderous creatures that had sought to crush any and all resistance from the humans. Their beasts were determined to make the world run on their instinctual and genetic hierarchy, to them it was the best way to live one with the world, saying it was a given right of life from their precious 'moon goddess'. But despite losing the main war for control, human determination was not so easily squashed out, a resistance was set up in areas that lacked wolf control over the globe. The world was split and changed to suit the bests, pack territories drawn out, all unified under the council of unified supreme alphas, each having control over a different continent, though luckily for humans wolves liked to stick in their communities, which left many islands and smaller land masses open for human control, only visited once every year by patrols, meaning the rebellion had different hidden bases all over. But what happens when the alpha supreme Damien Steele, the scariest of the seven supreme alphas, finds his mate. A human girl, and not just any human girl. Ashley Harper, otherwise known as the rebellions 'ghost' Will the two learn to work out their differences after finding out the moon goddess has linked their souls as mates, both too stubborn to submit easily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I know you're here little ghost...I can smell your scent everywhere" "then why don't you try catching me, coward" "oh darling...with pleasure~"

Beauty and Beastly | ✓ by shimmeringfire

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

Blood Renegades by ACTVAwrite

[COMPLETE] The country of Edalbire used to be a peaceful place, ran by a husband and wife king and queen, however when their youngest child took over the throne by not so legitimate means, he turned the country from a peaceful and beautiful land to a dark land that he rules over with an iron fist and now it's up to the Blood Renegades to not only overthrow the king but also place the rightful heir back on the throne. One of the Blood Renegades however...has a secret that if found out, will have catastrophic consequences not only for them but for the entire country of Edalbire. If I was to give this an age rating, I'd give it a 16+ for the violence and swearing.

Blind Instincts by _Serza

*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it. "You're blind." ~ Monet was born into a particularly prestigious area of her wolf pack, to parents of extremely high standards. Her legacy is to become the packs next healer, but when she was born completely devoid of melanin, all her mated parents saw was a disappointment. Being born an albino wolf pup meant a lot for Monet, but it mostly meant her condition had taken her eyesight along with it. What happens when Monet meets the Alpha of a neighboring pack? Will he accept her for what she is? ~CONTENT WARNING~ This book contains depictions of physical abuse, foul language, and upsetting scenary.

I heard you by MissAutumnBlue

Lotticia Andrews had spent her entire life behind the walls of her library. Her father raised her to be selfish, and to fear the outside, and even after his death- she never left. She and her border collie had remained- until their food ran out. Lotticia wasn't a fighter, she only ever knew how to use knives- a knife her father had taught her how to use. A knife, a dog, a journal, and anxiety are all her father left her with. And books- hundreds of books. Then a Warrior general stomps his way into her life- trampling her solitary and lonely life. He's loud and obnoxious, imposing- but there seemed more beneath his hard exterior. His personality was a weapon he wore like his armor. General Christoph was a harsh leader compared to his predecessor Zelle. The warrior who trained him and chose him to continue in his footsteps after his death. He was bitter and cynical- and didn't intend to take another woman after his mate had died all those years ago. But things don't always go according to plan- he never meant to stumble upon a small female, nor her furry big-eyed dog. Christoph needed this human, for her knowledge and the language she could help them to understand her hand language. A small group, a one-day trip- that was all it was supposed to be. But then no one expected poachers, Another human female, or the natural cycle and what it could do to the human body. Christoph had completely underestimated the trip. Now war has broken out and tensions rise- both buried feelings and skeletons come falling out of the closet. Can this spunky smart girl survive the Palace's wrath? Can Christoph face the reality that things aren't always what they seem nor black and white? Will Lassie play her part- and find her way home? Who knows- maybe humanity was doomed on Earth- but that won't be Lottie or her dog- because she's willing to do whatever it takes to get moved up to the front of the list. Even if it means dealing with the palace, poachers, and skrill alike.
