I’ve been looking for ‘Alpha’s Shadow’ ever since a friend mentioned it. It might be a webcomic hosted on Lezhin or Tappytoon since it seems to contain quite mature themes. You can also search NovelUpdates for text-based versions and see if they’re translated, and if they’re licensed.
Other paranormal fanmade works I’ve looked into can often be found on Discord servers for such fiction, hosted on Google Drive or other forums for the work. (Of course, if it’s a webwork behind a legit site’s paywall, support the creator on their Patreon, or purchase chapters of the completed work — but oh, half the fun is searching for it anyway!).

Check Podiobooks (or similar) for availability. Occasionally free novel serials are read by the narrator as if a podcast and released chapter by chapter. Suitable to the dramatic nature of this story, and very important for delivering the alpha characters as commanding as they are – check to see if available. It’s free, and legal, so great if an option is available. Subscribed to in a normal podcast app, with new chapters released as they are ready. Podcasts of this nature often have very active and engaging communities, and is a nice ‘niche’ option for stories like this that readers might find.

I have seen so many memes about this book, I might just have to read it to see for myself what all the hype is about.

As for ‘Rejected the Alpha Queen’… I seem to recall a similar story by an author who publishes their work serialized on Dreame or GoodNovel (those are two apps that specialize in paranormal romance novels). You might want to check if the author has published anything else on Dreame or GoodNovel, or even look up their Patreon (a search for ‘Patreon + [author name]’ should lead you to any early drafts they’re sharing). I recall Royal Road’s forums mentioning a few werewolf plot recommendations, although most of those would likely be LitRPG.

My last piece of advice: Google the title of your novel plus “Novel Updates”. NovelUpdates.com is a hub for all things fan translation. On the site, you can find links to and read about the current status of any ongoing translation as well as archived series that may have completed fan translation in the past. I would recommend this site above all others for finding translated webnovels.

Note to reader: this scan is reading a rather cruddy translation of the romance between the protagonist and Amarah. The free sources do this storyline a great deal of injustice. I have tried to read it fairly and provide an accurate scan, but keep in mind that the poor translation has caused the dialogue to read rather painfully. It is much better in official source, for what that is worth.
When it comes to just Action & Cultivation development, translation quality does not really matter. Almost any translation of The Good for Nothing Boy will work fine for that. But for character development that helps you care about the characters, translation quality really matters. So skim the fight scenes on free sites, but spend money on the official app for key emotional scenes. Read hybrid.

Amazon Kindle Unlimited offers ‘Bitten by Fate’ amongst other related works. Read it for free with the Amazon Kindle Unlimited free trial month. You can also look for ‘Bitten by Fate’ on library apps like Hoopla and request it from your local library. I found this book whilst trawling through #ShifterRomance tags on Goodreads and comments on the Goodreads page for the book often include links to obscure sites hosting the work.

Beats me! Like I said, I stick to quality stuff that’s been published on Audible these days. It’s better quality control and I don’t have to worry about links not working or whether the author ever finishes the story. Searching for free online serials just got too crazy for me. But hey, that’s just me!

Because this is a Radish story, my free reading experience is going to be somewhat fragmented. You can read the first batch of chapters immediately and then hit a paywall after that. You can then either buy coins to read more or wait 24 hours to get a free “key” to read one more chapter. I haven’t been able to find this book on any of the reputable free ebook sites (such as Project Gutenberg) or on library apps for your phone or tablet (such as Libby). There are aggregator blogs that post lists of “free novels” but these are generally spammy and contain links to download “free” novels that will fill your device with malware. It’s really frustrating but, in order to read this, you have to play along with the Radish system. Essentially it’s a free premiere of a serialized TV show and then you have to subscribe to keep watching.

Are there other people out there feeling like we're drowning in a sea of web fiction apps, and each time someone new is suggested for reading a particular story, we just roll our eyes and say "Ugh, not another app for reading stories"... Webnovel, Radish, Kindle, AO3 are the four apps that I'm currently using for reading stories online, and I really don't want another app to be added to that list to consume even more of my battery and to send me even more notifications. I wish web fiction was more like it used to be and we could just go to a single website and read a particular story there. But as it is now, web fiction is pretty Balkanized. My answer to "Where can I read that?" is usually, "I don't know, and I'm not downloading another app to find out."
I'd just read something else on that platform. There's plenty of other content. Apps prey on the fear that you're missing out on a particular story, and sometimes you just have to let it go and discover something new in your existing library of content.
