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.

The premise behind the story with angels, demons, gods and everything else in between especially with how they interact with each other. How Lucifer had seals to prevent him from becoming stronger then his creator due to him being a hybrid of the creator and darkness was an interesting take on the hybrid continuity with the strengths & weaknesses of both species instead it is calculated of both species potential. I especially liked the brutality of each character and how the “2nd main character” Thomas was brutally killed many times in different ways (I didn’t really like him so I savoured in each of his deaths). One of my favourite moments in the story was when Lucifer grabbed Thor’s hammer Mjolnir and Thor was gobsmacked then Thors head was exploded by Lucifer due to him throwing Mjolnir at the speed of sound exploding his arrogant head. There are many different highlights throughout the book like when Charles (Mc) takes over Thomas’s body for less the an hour and blows up Washington. Well this is getting a bit long, I recommend you read this book (finished reading at the current chapter 74)
