All Chapters of A Prophecy and the Four Alphas: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

It was unfortunate that they seemed to make everyone believe the fire was started by accident, but Jessica knew better.Jessica stood at the edge of her grandmother’s cabin, and the charred remains were all that was left of the memory of her. Her shoes loudly crunched over the harsh ground as the scent of death and ashes lingered in the air, stinging her nostrils. This wasn’t the way Jessica wanted to remember her Granny. It had been a decade since Jessica was forced out of her pack. The Moonfury Pack was cold and cruel, exiling the she-wolf and leaving her with nowhere to go. She had been homeless and left with nothing but a broken heart.Now Jessica had returned to the dark thoughts surrounding her as she watched the last embers of what used to be her life turn into dust for good.

Things are going to get a lot more dangerous.”That hauntingly eerie howl still echoed through her, running around her head as she followed Jack toward the Southern ridge.
