My name is Athena Argos, and I’m the future Gamma of the Blood-Moon pack. I should be training to take over my position, but instead, I’ve left my pack to find the truth about the horrific attack that killed my father two years ago. He was my hero, and I can’t stand by and allow the pack responsible to get away with his murder. Follow the story of Athena and her lycan, Enyo, as they uncover the truth about who attacked their pack. What will happen when they find out that they are chosen by the Moon Goddess to fulfil a centuries-old prophecy, and are the reason why their father is dead? Will Athena and Enyo be able to protect the ones they love and fulfil the prophecy? Content Warning: Course language/profanity, violence, death, and sex scenes.

A Brief History

Lycans are the biggest and baddest of the supernatural world, and we bow to no one.We have enemies, of course. The human hunters try to hunt any supernatural creature that crosses their path, but they rarely hunt lycan because of our size and speed. Sometimes they will get lucky and find a rogue lycan, but they stay away from packs. The vampires learned long ago not to mess with us, as our bite is lethal to them. And the werewolves…? Well, they’ve never been much of a threat to lycans.While lycan and werewolves are both born of the Moon Goddess, Selina, the werewolf form takes the shape of a deformed wolf/human hybrid, with the ability to stand on two legs, and they’re only able to transform during a full moon. Their abilities, like sight and smell, are also weaker compared to lycans. They can be born a werewolf, or bitten as a human, and will transform into a werewolf on the first full moon after the bite.Lycans can only be born. Unlike werewolves, we are also born with two souls. ...

Prologue
Eight Years Ago‘Wake up, Athena…’My eyes flutter open, and I sit up, confused. ‘What was that?’ I think to myself, rubbing my eyes in a sleepy haze. As my eyes adjust to the darkness in the room, I realize I’m alone.“Hello?” I whisper, my heart beating faster as the full moon shining through my window creates scary shadows on the walls.Pulling my blanket up to my nose, I call out, “Mommy? Mommy, was that you?”‘It’s okay, Athena, I’m here now,’ I hear a soft voice say.I scream in fear and hide under my blanket. “Who… who said that?” I call out as I cry.‘I’m Enyo. I’m your lycan, Athena,’ she tells me, and I realize the unfamiliar voice is in my head.“What’s happening?” I ask her. “How are you here?”‘We’re shifting!’ She says excitedly, and I gasp.“But… No! I’m not old enough!” I panic. “I’m not ready for that!” I cry harder.‘The Goddess wouldn’t make you shift if you weren’t ready, Athena!’ Enyo says, trying to calm me down.I suddenly feel an intense pain in my back, and I s

Chapter 1-Present Day
I wake up startled and panting as the memories of my first shift fade to the back of my mind.‘What the fuck was that?’ Enyo asks.‘That would be a nightmare, Enyo,’ I say as I breathe deeply, trying to calm my pounding heart. I wipe my forehead, and my whole body is covered in a layer of sweat as I remember the pain from that night.‘No shit, sherlock,’ she says sarcastically, rolling her eyes. ‘Why are you dreaming of our first shift? That needs to be locked away and never thought of again.’‘It wasn’t all bad. Our first run was fun,’ I say as I get out of bed to pee.‘Okay, so remember that part and forget the rest,’ she demands.It’s my turn to roll my eyes. ‘Like it’s that easy,’ I huff.‘Whatever. We need to start organizing our birthday party, by the way.’I stop washing my hands and look up into the mirror, my green eyes changing to blue as Enyo pushes forward.‘Do you think we’ll find our mate straight away?’ She asks excitedly.‘We don’t have time for a mate,’ I sigh and go b

Chapter 2-Hard Goodbyes
Uncle Alex knocks on the Alphas door, and he announces for us to come in.“Gamma Alex, Athena, what can I do for you?” He asks without looking up from what he’s doing.“Alpha, Athena needs permission to leave the pack territory for an extended period,” Alex says.Alpha Damon finally stops what he’s doing and looks up at us curiously. “And why would you need that, Athena?”“I’d like to look further into the attack on our pack and the death of my father, Alpha.”He sits back in his chair and folds his hands on his desk.“Why would I allow you to do this, Athena? Your birthday is in a few months, and you’re supposed to take over the role of Gamma. And besides. This matter has been settled. The elder council investigated what happened. Why would I allow you to go out there and possibly cause trouble for our pack?”“I promise not to cause any trouble for the pack, Alpha. But I need to do this for my sanity. The closer I get to my birthday and taking on the responsibilities as Gamma, the mor

Chapter 3-Snow-Moon Pack
The next dayI look through the notebook that Alpha Damon gave me, looking over the names of the local packs.“Snow-Moon is probably a good place to start. Aren’t they an ally?” I ask Enyo.‘Yeah, they are. But I don’t think we’ve had much to do with them in a few years.’I put the number into my cell and dial.“Hello, this is Alyssa speaking. How may I help you?” A friendly voice answers after a few rings.“Hi Alyssa, my name is Athena Argos. I’m a member of the Blood-Moon pack, and I was wondering if I may speak with your Alpha if he’s available?”“May I ask what it’s regarding, please?”“It’s regarding an attack against our pack that happened two years ago.”She goes silent for a moment, then says, “Please hold.”The line goes quiet for a moment, and then another voice speaks. “Miss Argos, this is Alpha Jackson.”“Hello Alpha Jackson. Thank you for taking my call. I was wondering if I could please meet with you?”“My assistant said this is about the attack two years ago?”“Yes, sir.

Chapter 4-Outside Help
A week laterI pace the motel room angrily after another failed meeting with a nearby pack.‘This is infuriating! Someone has to know something! I don’t understand why no one will talk to us! The only one that told us anything new was Alpha Jackson.’ I say angrily to Enyo.‘If they do know anything, they probably don’t want to get their pack involved. It could put them at risk.’ Enyo explains.‘Put them at risk for what?’‘Pay back? An attack? Who knows? But besides the attack on Blood-Moon, there’s been no other attacks in the area. They’ve at least confirmed that.’‘I don’t know what else to do. I was an idiot to think that I could do this. That I could do more than the elder council,’ I say as I sit down on the bed in defeat.‘We can’t give up now. We can’t go back after just a week and admit defeat.’‘What then?’‘Why don’t you call Uncle Alex? Maybe he can speak to the other packs and convince them to talk to us?’I sigh and get my cell phone out of my pocket and call his number.

Chapter 5-A Possible Lead
Two weeks laterIt’s early in the morning when my cell rings, and I race over to the table to answer it.“Hello?”“Hi Athena, It’s Derek Williams.”“Yes, hi. Have you found anything?” I ask.“I think I’m finally on to something concrete,” he says, and Enyo rolls her eyes. “There’s a hunter named Bill Stokes who lives on a ranch about an hour of town.”At the mention of a hunter, Enyo’s hackles are raised, and I have to hold back a growl. “You want me to speak to a hunter?” I ask.“He’s been out of the game for years. He’s too old for the hunt now. My sources tell me he might have information on the pack that attacked yours.”“And why would a hunter help us?”“He might not help, but we won’t know until you try,” he says.I sigh and get a pen and paper. “What’s his address?”I scribble down the address and hang up from Derek.‘You can’t seriously be thinking about going and speaking to a hunter?’ Enyo asks.‘If he has information, then we need it. We have to try.’I grab my jacket, the m

Chapter 6-Meeting With a Hunter
“We? You were involved?” I ask him, slowly taking a step towards him. “Oh, I was involved, alright. I was there. The entire pack should have been wiped out of existence. But I’ll give your father one thing; he trained his warriors well. Too bad he wasn’t up to the task himself, though,” he says with a cruel sneer, and then laughs.I tremble with rage as I slowly move towards the old hunter. A low growl escapes my throat, and he stops laughing, his cold eyes locking with mine, as I struggle to keep Enyo at bay.‘Calm down, Enyo!’“That’s close enough, mutt. Now get out of here before I put you down too,” he says as he points the shotgun back at me.‘If he says one more thing about Dad, I’ll rip his throat out!’‘We can’t hurt him. We need whatever information he has.’“How do you know anything about me or my father?” I ask, trying to get him to talk more.He scoffs. “I was involved in one of the greatest operations to occur in over a century,” he says proudly. “We studied your pack for

Chapter 7-A Mysterious Disappearance
The drive back to the city feels like it takes hours. I can feel Enyo pacing back and forth in my mind, and I’m trembling with rage and fear. Maybe I should go back and move his body. What if someone finds him or saw me and my truck there?‘Goddess, I did not see today going this way,’ I think to myself as I check my rear-view mirror again to make sure no one is following us.I finally turn onto Hilltop Road from Main Street, and easily find a parking spot on the quiet street outside Derek’s office. I take a deep breath and try to compose myself. I move the rear-view mirror to fix my hair back into a ponytail and realize I still have blood on my neck and hands. My face pales as I reach into my backpack and grab out the wet wipes I have in there and start cleaning myself up.My phone suddenly rings on the seat, making me jump, and my heart feels like it’s going to burst out of my chest as I look down and see that it’s Mom calling. I groan and consider not answering it.‘You shouldn’t ig

Chapter 8-Help From a Gamma
I get up from sitting on the bed when there’s a knock on the door. I open it slowly and see Uncle Alex, so I open the door further to let him in. He rushes past me and tells me to lock the door.“What’s this all about, Uncle Alex?”“Why are you asking about the Moonstone pack?” He asks, agitated.“Well, first I need to tell you about what happened today,” I say, motioning for him to sit at the small, round dining table. “Derek called me this morning and told me he had a lead. He said that he had found an old hunter living close by who might know why we were attacked. So, I went to see him…”“YOU WHAT?! You went and saw a hunter ALONE?” He shouts.“If you can’t keep your temper under control, then I’m not going to tell you…” I say, crossing my arms.Uncle Alex takes a deep breath and tries to calm down, motioning for me to continue.“He told me he was ‘part of one of the greatest operations to occur in over a century’.”“What the hell does that mean? What operation?”“I don’t know. But
