Defy The Alpha(s)

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all.

Défier Les Alpha(s)

Deux siècles après la Grande Guerre, la paix entre les humains et les loups-garous a finalement été atteinte, du moins tout le monde le croit. Les loups-garous règnent comme des dieux, et les humains restent dans une ignorance bienheureuse de leur véritable place dans le nouvel ordre mondial. Pour maintenir cet équilibre fragile, chaque année, une poignée d'humains "chanceux" sont sélectionnés dans divers districts pour assister à l'Académie Lunaris, une institution prestigieuse qui promet gloire, statut et une chance de côtoyer l'élite. Ceux qui sont choisis sont acclamés comme les quelques chanceux, destinés à épouser de puissants alphas et à s'élever en tant que luna. Cette année, Violet Purple est parmi les élus, à la surprise de tous. Pour une fille orpheline adoptée par une prostituée déshonorée, c'est un ticket en or pour une vie meilleure ou du moins c'est ce qu'on lui dit. Mais l'Académie Lunaris n'est pas le paradis qu'on décrit. Tout ce que Violet et ses camarades humains ont appris est un mensonge. Les humains sont loin d'être égaux ; ils sont des pions dans un jeu bien plus vaste. L'académie n'est rien de plus qu'une cage dorée, et les étudiants sont des agneaux menés à l'abattoir, des jouets pour les alphas dans leurs jeux impitoyables. Pour aggraver les choses, Violet attire l'attention des joueurs les plus dangereux dans ce jeu, les Quatre Terreurs : l'Alpha du Nord, l'Alpha du Sud, l'Alpha de l'Est et l'Alpha de l'Ouest. Chacun est plus dangereux, plus tordu et plus puissant que le précédent. Mais même entre eux, les alphas sont divisés, chacun poursuivant ses propres ambitions mortelles. Pourtant, ils ont tous les yeux rivés sur elle. Ils s'attendent à ce que Violet suive le mouvement, tombe dans les rangs comme les autres qui vénèrent à leurs pieds, qu'elle casse sous leurs jeux. Mais Violet n'est pas comme les autres. Elle refuse de s'incliner. Elle va tous les défier.

From 1776 to 1852, the United States of America witnessed various reform movements which effectively contributed to the growing opposition to slavery. In his “Declaration of Sentiments of the American Anti-Slavery Society,” American journalist William Lloyd Garrison expresses how the slavery represents the “deadliest curse” and “foulest stain” of the nation (Doc E). While the Anti-Slavery Society ideally desired a separation of populations and to send back slaves to Africa, their concern over natural rights and the Second Great Awakening inspired them to “live to witness the triumph of Justice, Liberty and Humanity, or perish untimely as martyrs in this great, benelovent, and holy cause.” Garrison’s declaration is significant in demonstrating how growing opposition to slavery was not always grounded in antislavery or abolitionist sentiment; it was spurred by economic concerns, anxieties over blacks as equals, and fear of slave revolts. In her book “Appeal to the Christian Women of the South,” Angelina Grinke encourages activism by Christian women against slavery (Doc F). What makes her background as an author so unique is that she was once part of a slave-holding plantation family as well, and after witnessing the brutality of slavery Grinke argues that only by abolishing this horrid system will there be hopes for women’s suffrage. Women were often leaders in the antislavery movement and ultimately pinned their hopes for suffrage on the abolition of slavery. Additionally, Grimké argues that slavery corrupts many Christians who behave in a non-Christian manner when they sell souls for money. Through the reforms for women’s suffrage, concern over economy and population, and religion, anti-slavery sentiments eventually rose to unprecedented heights between 1776 and 1852.

The Governor knocked on the handsome eunuch beside him with his fan." I heard that I was the one who snatched you?" Chen Yuan shuddered." Nonsense, it was clearly me…who deceived the Governor's pure and innocent heart." The governor straightened his python robe and sneered." Which is more interesting, living as a widow or soaking in a pig cage?" Under the pressure of the proposition, Chen Yuan came up with an idea." Of course, it's most interesting to be the Governor's minion." " Heh, I've been called a lackey of the imperial court, and you want to be my lackey? Fine, this case is yours." "Thank you, Lord Governor!" "Hmm?" "Thank you, husband, for giving me the opportunity to investigate the case!"

"Then what do you have?" Wu Yue took a deep breath. [Nothing.] The system replied coldly. "Then what use do I have for you?" Wu Yue squinted. The system exploded,[I told you I'm a Lifestyle System!] Lifestyle System! You don't even move. You're sitting here asking for food. What do you want to eat!" The system exploded, and Wu Yue cowered… Our slogan is to eat, wear, and live a comfortable life. We'll build a house happily, and we'll happily farm.
