Substitute Werewolf Web Novels & Stories

Two years ago, Wren Voss took the blame for a crime that wasn't hers, to save the only family she'd ever known. She expected forgiveness. She got a labor quarry, silver in her water, and a wolf that stopped answering her. Now she's free and nothing was waiting for her. Her brother has a new sister to protect. Her mother has a new daughter to fuss over. The only debt Wren still owes this family is one she never agreed to. She isn't planning revenge. She's planning an exit, starting with asking for a mate she doesn't love, just enough to leave for good. But the Lycan King has started asking questions this household doesn't want answered. And the alpha who was never supposed to look twice at her can't seem to stop. Some families don't realize what they had until it stops needing them back.

Riley’s life shatters the moment she meets her mate. Instead of accepting her, he rejects her at first sight and, in the same breath, proposes to her stepsister. For Riley, the pain cuts deeper because this is not the first thing she has lost to her sister. All her life, Riley has sacrificed her happiness, her opportunities, and everything precious just to keep the peace in her family. But she never imagined she would be asked to give up her mate too. When her stepsister finally offers to give something back, it comes at a terrible price. Riley is asked to take her place in an ancient ritual that has thrown every young maiden in the city into fear, a single night with the Beast. The Beast is a five-hundred-year-old monster who only emerges in the dead of night. Cursed and bound by dark magic, he is slowly dying and can only be saved by the blood of a breeder. The problem is simple and terrifying: breeders were believed to have gone extinct many years ago. With no way to escape her fate, Riley is sent to the Beast, how do she escape when the beast is obsessed with her?

Calista never wanted to steal her sister’s place. She was an omega whose wolf awakened only after she risked her life to save Alpha Axton from a burning building. She thought that moment would finally make him see her. Instead, her family gave Eira the credit. When Axton announced that the woman who saved his life would become his Luna, Calista was forced to remain silent. In exchange, her father promised to give her the inheritance her late mother left behind. She thought losing Axton was a sacrifice she could live with. Until Eira disappeared the night before the mating ceremony. Suddenly, Calista becomes the prime suspect. With no sister to stand beside him, Axton forces Calista to take Eira’s place and become his temporary Luna until Eira is found. But Axton doesn’t see her as his mate. He sees her as a selfish woman who waited for the perfect opportunity to take everything that belonged to Eira. Calista knows the truth, but revealing it could cost her the only thing her mother ever left her. As she struggles to survive beside an Alpha who despises her, strange things begin to happen. Axton’s wolf reacts to her in ways neither of them can explain. And the more Axton watches Calista, the more he begins to question everything he believed about her.
