Elena Morgan has always felt like an outsider. Raised by her single mom in a quiet town, she knows nothing of her father or her heritage. Strange things start happening after graduation: her senses sharpen, her strength increases, and she feels an intense connection to Lucas Blackwood, alpha of a powerful werewolf pack. Lucas is preparing for a prophecy regarding an "Alpha's Heir" who may save or damn the werewolf world. In encountering Elena, he knows she is that heir—the one holding the power to shift the dynamics of werewolves. Getting close, Lucas battles between his feelings for Elena and the menace from Viktor Nightshade, a rogue werewolf who would like to utilize Elena as a power tool. Viktor is a menace, but Elena must balance her newfound powers with pack politics and growing feelings for Lucas. Along her path to self-discovery, she turns to her best friend, Jenna, and elder Marcus for guidance. She must become "The Alpha's Heir" to defend her pack and Werewolf World. "The Alpha's Heir" is a coming-of-age story about identity, love, and power set against the hidden supernatural world.

THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 12
The past weighted the air with an imaginary coating of fog as Lucas stood at the door, his huge frame still caught between human and wolf. His chest rose and fell in slow, deep breaths. The words thrown at him by those men reverberated within his mind louder than any gunshot.We have your sister.He had buried that part of his life so long ago: his pack, his family, his sister—Leah. At the time, she had been a teenager full of life until it all came crashing down around them. It had been during a raid several years ago, when the organization came hunting werewolves as if they were too dangerous to live among men. Leah was taken in the chaos, and he'd been late getting to her.He had thought she must be dead. That was what the organization did, wasn't it? They didn't take prisoner; they eliminated.And now they're telling him different. She was alive. Could that be? Or just another inhumane joke, a trap for his surrender?"Lucas, we don't have time for this!" Elena's voice cut into his
THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 11
The night seemed blacker than it ever had; the thick trees around the cabin were in full sway with the growing wind. Elena, her heart pounding in her chest, turned to look out of the small window. She felt her breath catch at the shapes of men moving stealthily through the shadows, closing in-armed and, for all intents and purposes, ready for a fight.Lucas was standing near the door, his back to her and Marcus, his broad shoulders tense. His eyes, golden, shining weakly in the dim cabin light, scanned outwards as every muscle coiled and readied."This isn't going to end well if we just sit here," Marcus whispered, his voice trembling."We're not sitting here doing nothing," Lucas snarled. His voice was different-deeper, rougher. His skin rippled, the first hints of a change. Elena stepped backward, her mind faltering to make sense of the image of his hands shifting, of claws bursting from the fingertips.She had never seen him this way before, not this close. The werewolf part of him
THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 10
The forest came alive with sound, quick thudding of feet against earth, snapping branches as Lucas, Elena, and Marcus raced through the trees. Elena's breath came in quick, shallow gasps, her legs burning with the effort to keep up. Behind them, the soft rustling of their pursuers grew louder, relentless."Faster!" Lucas urged voice sharp, almost feral in its intensity as he ran with an unnatural speed, eyes glowing faintly in the moonlight, every muscle strained as if feeling danger closing in around them."Who the hell are these people?" Marcus panted, looking over his shoulder as he urged himself to run faster. "And why are they after us?They work for the organization," Lucas said over his shoulder. "They won't stop until they get what they want.""What do they want?" Elena gasped, her heart pounding not just from the exertion but fear. Fear of what she didn't know and starting to fear what she was beginning to understand about Lucas."Me," Lucas said succinctly, his eyes flicking
THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 9
The beat in Elena's heart drummed as she and Marcus wove their way through the thick trees of the forest. The air had a crisp chill to it, while the earth beneath their feet gave the cooling touch of evening dew. Above, the low moon cast an eerie silver light on everything that surrounded them. It was the place Lucas had chosen for their meeting, but he made Elena nervous. Yet somehow she knew this place meant something more than being a quiet retreat-it is almost as if the very forest had secrets of its own, even from her."You sure about this?" Marcus asked in an almost inaudible tone.Elena turned to him, the flicker of hesitation dancing in her stare. "We have no choice, for if we do nothing now, we will never know the truth.She could feel Marcus's doubt, but deep down she just could not let go of the connection she felt with Lucas; there was something about him-something more than danger and mystery shrouding him. She needed to face him, herself, and find out who he was.As they
THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 8
Tension mounted as Elena and Marcus went about their preparations against what was to come. Threating text messages and warnings were one thing, but the information they had come to learn from Mia was quite another thing altogether-this was something that couldn't be taken so lightly. There was no turning back.They would be meeting Mia at a safer location, some old abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city. It was a place that Mia suggested, well out of prying eyes. The night stretched and stretched as they drove through it, their car's headlamps cutting through the darkness. Elena's fingers tapped nervously on her lap as her mind raced.I still don't know if we can trust her," Marcus grumbled, his eyes on the road."I don't either," Elena said, "but if what she says is true, then Lucas is in real trouble. We need to find out more.Marcus's face twisted into a sigh, and his knuckles whitened a little more on the wheel. "Just remember what we're getting into. These people play
THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 7
Elena and Marcus stepped out into the coolness of the evening air, coolness hitting them like a splash of cold water. That tension from sometime earlier still lay between them, as did the unsettling warning from the woman, upon their minds. They walked a few paces before Elena turned to Marcus, trying to shake off the feeling of dread.Who was she?" Elena asked in a whisper. "Do you think she was telling the truth?""I don't know," Marcus said running his hand through his hair. "But we can't just let it go. We need to find out what's going on with Lucas."At that moment, they heard an interrupting voice. "Excuse me, are you two looking for Lucas?They turned and saw standing behind them a young woman with brown hair tied up in a ponytail and a pair of glasses balancing on her nose. Her faded hoodie and jeans gave off an impression of casualness tinged with seriousness."Who is asking?" asked Marcus instinctively, already assuming the protective role."I am Mia," she replied, having ta

Elena's heart was racing as if it would burst out of her ribcage as she and Marcus emerged from the park. The late afternoon sun hung low in the sky, long, sinister shadows strewn on the ground. She replayed that call in her mind, a razor-sharp, menacing voice on the other end telling her to stop rummaging through Lucas's life. The warning stung her mouth with a bitter taste.Did you hear that? They know we're looking into him," Elena said, barely louder than a whisper.Marcus just walked beside her, rubbing the back of his neck. "Yeah, I did. It's unsettling. But we can't just back off now, can we?Elena watched him, divided between the excitement of the chase and the fear that something horrible might happen. "I don't know, Marcus. Perhaps we really ought to stop. It's getting dangerous."He stopped walking and faced her. "But what if Lucas is in some kind of danger? What if he's mixed up in something much larger than we fathom? We can't just leave him there.Elena let out a heavy s
THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 5
Elena's mind was racing with the threats and the secrets surrounding Lucas. That call had her pretty jittery, and things were getting way too crystal clear. She wanted answers, and she wanted them fast. The girl kept returning to thoughts of Marcus's information and that mysterious pack of werewolves she had heard about in town rumours as she drove home.That night, she could not concentrate on anything else. She still had Lucas and his forest in her mind. If the pack he affiliated with was behind the threats she received, then what if Lucas were part of something big and secretive? Maybe the werewolf pack was connected too.She ended up doing some investigation of her own. Flipping through old newspapers and bits of local gossip, she discovered a long history of werewolf legends in this town. Stories often blurry, yet all indicative of some great and powerful pack that had kept their existence hidden from public view.Further needling, Elena called on a local historian—a hairy old ge
THE ALPHA'S HEIR CHAPTER 4
Elena's heart raced as she watched Lucas walk out of the café. Now, there was a thick, unspoken tension in the atmosphere; her friends' eyes had grown very wide with worry and curiosity. All this seemed to be some kind of warped game, the rules of which she didn't know, coupled with the sudden appearance of this mystery man and his cryptic messages.Marcus broke the silence, bending at the waist with his voice lowered. "Did he see you? You think he knows we were talking about him?"Elena shook her head, still staring at the door. "I don't know. It felt like he looked right at me, but it was so quick."Lydia tapped her fingers on the table, brows knitted as she murmured, "This is getting creepier by the minute. What if he is the one sending the messages? Or what if he is being watched, too?"Jenna craned her neck over her shoulder almost half-expecting to find him just there. "We have to be careful. If he's some kind of dangerous dude, we can't just barge up and confront him; we have t
