WINNER: 3rd Place, 2021 Werewolf Competition [Mature Content] After escaping suicide forest, August Moon finds that she has only gone deeper into the mysteries it holds. Lycans exist. But maybe she is something even stranger... With a clandestine experimental pandemic, a decade-old murder mystery, and a timeless prejudice against strange members within the lycan community all simmering in the periphery of her newfound surroundings, August must fight to discover her own truth alongside a fierce and possessive male who claims to be her mate.
"So Thundering Falls may be a problem," Sam said, looking at his Alpha who was still poised next to the window staring out at the forest.
August was out there somewhere. That is all Graeme could think about, and it was slowly driving him mad. He knew it shouldn't be… he trusted her. She was more than capable of whatever it was that the Goddess had put before her with this vampire issue. But Ranier was just one more reminder that most lycans did not hold the alyko in high esteem like their pack now did.
The alyko were distrusted at best, and at worst they were hunted, imprisoned, experimented on, and killed. He wanted his alyko mate safe by his side where he could protect her, if only to reassure himself of that fact. Hell, he would take her protecting him at this point. He just wanted her home. Goddess, he needed her home.
