After Selena was forced to leave Alpha Kian's kingdom for being his second chance mate she swore to never come back, leaving her family and friends behind. Without any other choice, she leaves the pack and has to survive on her own. With no pack or family to help her, she starts over and builds up her life. When fate one day interferes and she finds herself captured by the king's men as an enemy and tossed in the castle's prison to be tortured. Can she escape without the king finding out his mate has come back to his kingdom, and keep her secrets hidden from him? When her life and the ones she cares about depend on her secrets. Is the King still the cold-hearted mate she once met a late night in the dark or has he changed?

Her father killed mine. They call her the True Alpha—mystically powerful, unstoppable. A walking weapon with the power of life and death. I have trained my whole life to end her. I swore I would not perish until she perished with me. Along with her family. Her entire bloodline. But it didn’t happen as I planned. For as I write this in tears, all I want now is not her death… but her love. To be hers. To be claimed by the very daughter of my father’s killer. Except—she wants me dead. For bringing war into her territory, she will stop at nothing until I am destroyed.

Aella “whirlwind” Harlow was looking at the screen of her phone with earbuds on, the live speech of Aniya Rossi in the United Nations. She sighed and mumbled, when it ended, “Dumbass… Werewolves accepted by society, protectors, helping Humanity achieve greatness. Yeah, greatness my butt! A good Werewolf is a dead Werewolf! Spoiled brat… Stupid b*tch…” She checked her quiver, counting the darts still there. A quick glance at the pistol crossbow on the left side of her belt, and at the Ruger gun inside the holster under her left armpit. Grabbing her faithful Labrys, a double edge axe, was the last thing she did before hearing a howl nearby. Aella frowned and mumbled, “Show time…” (It is the sequel of "The Flesh-Eating Werewolf", set 20 years in the future, but can be read as a stand alone, but with minor mentions to events in the first story, and some previous characters that will appear in this story.)

Working as a cafe tender, even though she has a degree, discovered that her mum dumped her in the hands of a man who she thought was her Dad all along, and sold her to a man whom her supposed Dad owed, Kiana could swear that fate had a personal vendetta against her. Not until Alpha princess Dew— the daughter of the man she was auctioned to, breezed into her life like fresh air. The connection between them could be felt from a mile away. Dew made many decisions, just to protect her, including disagreeing with her father not to make Kiana a slave and accepting his condition of marrying the Alpha prince of Greenwood to strengthen the alliance of the two packs, but that was before the moon mating ceremony where she discovered that she was Dew's mate. Dew couldn't explain her sudden interest in Kiana even after she had decided to keep her hands off women because of her pack duties. But that didn't stop feelings from creeping up as they both started working together. Her father kicked against it, upon discovery. But it seemed the moon goddess had other plans. Kiana turned out to be her mate. But like she expected, her father wouldn't hear of her marrying a woman. But would Alpha King Darius continue kicking against their union? Even when the truth about Kiana's real identity was unveiled, and the survival of his pack now depended on her gifts?

Who are you?" I sluttered, attempting to take a step back but my feet seemed rooted to a spot. The mysterious man smiled, his eyes glinting in amusement, "I am someone who knows you," he said, his voice dripping with an otherworldly intensity. "I am someone who has been waiting for you." I looked around, I was surrounded by lifeless Bodies, slaughtered brutally by something worse than a monster, "What happened here?" I asked, struggling to keep my voice steady. The mysterious man chuckled, the sound sending shivers down my spine. "They are dead, you killed them all." He said, his eyes glistening in happiness, "You've become the person I knew you would be." I felt a pang, I looked at my hands, they were covered with blood. However, the question remains: did I really kill all these people? If yes… then who am I? Read on to find out!
