No Alpha But Myself
"You're no daughter of this pack,"Ā my mother hissed, her golden eyes flashing in the firelight.Ā "If you can't support your Alpha sister, then get out."
I should have seen it coming. In theĀ Ashveil Pack, family means everythingāunless you're me.Ā Vera Darkthorne, the disappointment. While my perfect sisterĀ ErisĀ got the love, the title, evenĀ my mate Cain, I got a mating ceremony where nobody showed up. Not even the man who swore he'd always be mine.
That night, I ran.
Now I've built a new life inĀ Berlin's underground werewolf syndicate, where strength is the only law that matters. I've learned to fight, to lead, to make wolves twice my size back down with just a look. But when a message comes thatĀ Eris's dying, the pack demands my return.
"Come home, Vera,"Ā my father's voice crackles through the phone.Ā "Your sister needs you."
I almost laugh. After everything?
But this time, I'm not the weak wolf they left behind. This time,Ā I have fangs of my own.
And when wolves hunt you down, you don't runāyou rip their throats out first.
