First and foremost, I want to thank you for all of your amazing support with this book and all of the others that came before it.
“Destined Alpha of Change” has actually been one of my favorite books to write because of both Kalen and Maddox. She is such a strong warrior that can stand against any foe no matter what it will cost her. However, there is also such a vulnerability that she hides underneath her armor. It is something that she does not allow herself to acknowledge until her armor is ripped right off of her. She had every right to walk away from Maddox, but she knew how wrong that was. Her vulnerability saw his, and it called out for her to protect him even if he did not know that he needed it or wanted it.
Maddox began as a character that you would like to deck, but there was so much that he hid away from the world. Being raised by someone like Calvin would definitely leave both metaphorical and physical scars. Kalen realized that she needed him just as much as he needed her. I have always loved some good redemption, as seen with Theo and Brynn, but there was a difference between the two cases. Maddox’s redemption was from all of his past sins. He called her his angel, and that was precisely what she was for him. She lit up his darkness so that he could find his way out of it.
Readers had asked for a Hades appearance ever since Remo, Angel’s hellhound, was introduced in “Fated Power – Fated Destiny” so it was time for him to show up.
Following in the path of species integration that my books have had, Zion’s book will include his little witch mate. His story will begin after “Fated Bonds – Caught in a Web of Secrets” finishes serializing on R E A M. The future Legacies of Fate series – which includes Blakely, Asher, and Scarlett’s stories – and the future Legacies of Destiny series – which includes Zion, Lola, and Matteo’s stories will be told on that platform.
My NEW book is currently live here on this site! “Tangled Secrets – Taming Mr. Vittori” is a story that has been in the making for a while now, so I am excited to get Violet and Enzo’s journey started. You can check out the sneak peek that I had previously posted for it. Their journey is filled with twist, turns, and a rollercoaster of emotions.
Again, thank you for being the amazing people that you are!
See you amongst the turning pages,
Shana Allen

Destined Alpha of Change Preface
KALENEveryone left behind a legacy – their mark on the world. Sometimes it created a positive and lasting change for all. Other times all it left behind was chaos and carnage.Fairytale books had distinct heroes and distinct villains. It was an either/or situation. Good or bad. Black or white. Was it that simple to categorize everyone? What if they did not fit into any one box because nobody was purely good or purely evil?I thought it was simple once upon a time until fate threw me a curveball that I was unable to dodge.My future had always been clear to me growing up. I would become the first female Alpha of the Dark Moon pack. It was something that I threw my entire focus into as I got older. Dad was an amazing Alpha, and I would be proud to be even half of what he was. My pack meant everything to me, and it was an honor that I would be able to pick up the mantle when he was ready to pass it to me.Part of me had assumed that my biggest hurdles in life would come from proving that
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 1
KALENBreathe in. Breathe out. Repeat.My legs pumped, gaining momentum and speed with every push. A surge of adrenaline rushed through me. I forced my legs to push harder through the obstacle course. Sweat poured off of me, showing me just how difficult this course was. I fucking loved it.I leapt from the top of the rock wall to the wooden beam that was suspended in the air. The sweat pouring off of me was not all that helpful when trying to balance so that I did not plummet to the ground. I was not really one who enjoyed healing from broken limbs. That sucked, so I always tried my best to avoid it.A whizzing sound was heard from the right, and I dropped down just in time for another log to fly over my head. Grandpa Mike took great pride in designing his courses, always wanting to find new ways to keep participants on edge because that was when their survival instincts were tested.I jumped to my feet again and took off. There was a springboard at the end. I pushed off from it and f

KALEN‘C’mon, Alpha Kalen. We don’t want to be late,’ Nika chirped.‘Sure we do. School is vastly overrated. There’s no need to even go. We could easily pass every exit exam. Mom graduated when she was fourteen. There’s no reason why we have to finish out the next two years.’My wolf rolled her big golden eyes at me and stuck me with a no-nonsense look. Sometimes, sharing my mindspace with someone else royally sucked because nothing remained secret. She knew my emotions as well as my reasons.Something about today would set things in motion. What that was, I had absolutely no idea. It could be anything from crossing the street to meeting someone specific to insulting an idiot. There was no telling what it would be. I was absolutely fucked if it was the last one because too many idiots loved to voice their opinions of me and my position within a pack that was not even their own.I was wearing a pair of black ripped skinny jeans that was paired with a white lace V-neck short sleeved top

KALEN‘No matter where you go, you are representing Dark Moon,’ Dad had said multiple times. ‘Act and react as an Alpha. Remain collected and calm, but don’t let people walk over you.’Dad always gave me great pearls of wisdom. They became mantras that helped me get through times when I wanted to just slap a bitch or realign someone’s nose.Did I have anger issues? No. Calm was my general state of being. I just had a low tolerance meter for bullshit. Case in point – right now.We were changing for Training Ops. It was a class that was geared towards those who were seeking to become warriors and Enforcers, but anyone could take it. This class was mandatory for leadership though because we had to be the best of the best for our packs. Ensuring that they remained safe and secure was of the utmost importance.There were petty bitches snickering and talking about Sera. She was the sweetest person you would ever meet. She never talked down to anyone or made them feel like shit.“It makes me
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 4
MADDOXIt was really fucking ridiculous that I was forced to attend an academy this year. I would love nothing more than to tell my father to shove it up his ass and leave me the fuck alone, but I valued oxygen expanding my lungs a little too much for that.Why did I have to suffer through all of this fucking bullshit just because my old man had a vendetta? I was nothing more than his errand boy – a good soldier who was not meant to question his orders.The morning had been shaping up to be a complete letdown. Sure, there was a hot chick who practically offered herself up to me. I enjoyed my fair share of females, but I did not go for the desperate types. I craved a challenge, something to keep me intrigued.The hot chick that was wrapped around me had nothing on the green-eyed beauty that I had caught eyeing me. She was fucking fine in those clothes, but I bet she looked even better out of them and spread wide open for me.I wondered what her name was, but I was not about to ask anyon
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 5
KALENJade had somehow convinced me to go to the party tonight. It was not that I disliked parties, but I knew that being around idiots while they were drinking just made them into even bigger idiots.She convinced me by saying that me ditching out on the party would make David feel like I worried about retribution. I knew that she just used it since she knew it would get me to agree, but she did have a slight point. Thus, I conceded.She and Ava took it upon themselves to make certain that I was all decked-out, teasing me I would look like a fucking knockout at all times if I put in half as much effort as I did on shaving time off of my obstacle courses.I simply told them that I did not care about looking like a knockout. I dressed up for myself when I wanted to. It was not like I would be dating because I had made the decision a couple of years back that I was going to wait for my mate. I wanted him to be the one that I dressed up for and the one that got all of my firsts.Now, I di
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 6
KALENI tried to push Zion’s words out of my head for now because they could mean anything at all.We found Ava and Matteo by the bonfire. They were chatting away with some of their friends from the academy who lived on campus.Someone covered my eyes from behind. It was easy to guess who it was by scent alone.“I wonder who this could be,” I deadpanned.She just bounced around and gave me a big grin. Blakely was super gorgeous. She was the eldest triplet of Uncle Dante and Aunt Ziyah, Alpha and Luna of the Shadow Falls pack. She was a wolf/Fae hybrid and really fucking powerful on both accounts. Plus, she excelled in combat magic.Blakely was just as gorgeous as she was lethal. 5’9 with curves and muscles galore. Black hair with natural white highlights. Light blue eyes with amethyst specks in them. Her skin tone took after her Light Fae heritage with it being pale ivory with a dusting of shimmer, reminiscent of diamond powder, but hers was a bit more subtle.“Having fun?” she asked,
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 7
MADDOXMy eyes had been completely transfixed on her from the moment that I saw her at the party. I thought that she looked hot in regular clothes. I thought that she looked sexy as hell in her gym outfit. Nothing could really get better than that right? Wrong. So, fucking wrong.Neo was growling up a storm as I checked her out. Goddess-fucking-damn! Never had I seen anyone that looked that good.I kept my distance until I saw her head to the dance floor, and I prowled on over there. I needed to know what this beauty’s body felt like as she danced with me.My hands splayed onto her hips, gripping a little bit. It felt like we were the only two on this dance floor right now. The way that her body felt against mine…Then she turned to face me and laced her arms around my neck. Her eyes were so expressive, pulling me straight into them.This dance was a great beginning to what would end up being a great night if I had anything to say about it. I wanted to see these moves when she wore abs

Destined Alpha of Change Sneak Peek of Tangled Secrets - Taming Mr. Vittori
VIOLETI stood at the cliff’s edge and watched as the sun peeked over the horizon, painting the sky a plethora of colors. It normally signified the beginning of a new day, but today it signified a possible beginning of the end.Life had not been easy. There was always a fight occurring. It was Mom fighting for us in the beginning. Then it was me fighting for my sister once Mom was gone. Now, it was me fighting for them both.It was crazy to think about how much my life had changed since that night – the night when I learned the truth.I once heard someone say, ‘people can’t change the truth, but the truth can change people.’ That quote stuck with me because it was simplistic yet had an unmistakable depth to it as well. The truth really did change me. Not only did I find out that a mere human was precisely what I was not, but I also found out that Mom didn’t actually die two years ago. Nope. She was betrayed by her husband and given over to a group of sadistic assholes who hunted supern
Destined Alpha of Change Sneak Peek of Destined Bonds - The Hybrid Prince and His Little Witch
ZIONGrowing up, I was surrounded by love, warmth, affection, and strong bonds between those in my life.The bond with my father taught me about the man that I wanted to be – the one who fought for what was right no matter what that entailed. It also taught me about the mate that I wanted to be – the one who fought for my other half and was whatever she needed me to be in her life. She would be my Queen, both metaphorically and literally.The bond with both of my parents taught me all about the ruler that I wanted to be once I took my place as the next King to sit on the Precoza throne. I was incredibly proud of my heritage, both on the Precoza side as well as the Anderson side. I was proud to be a hybrid because it was the perfect blending of my parents and our family.The first time that I ever had a vision of my future mate was at the ripe young age of nine. It was the very first look that I got of her. I had no idea who she was or where to find her, but I knew that our paths would
Destined Alpha of Change Bonus Chapter - Flames of the Muse Tattoo Expo
KALENIt had been nearly impossible to keep this surprise away from my mate, but it was worth every bit of the sneaky ninja moves that I had to employ.Nadine and Delilah were tasked with keeping their father distracted while I drove us to our venue.He had tried his hardest in convincing me to share the surprise, but I was somehow able to keep my wits about me. I was a strong Alpha. I was embarrassed to admit that I almost gave in after eight mind-blowing orgasms in a row. I had been a quivering mess by that point. Thank fuck that I had retained a single cell of restraint.Nadine and Delilah were the only ones with us today. They were ten and seven respectively. Roman was five, and Harlow was three months old now. Those two were hanging out with Grammy and Pops. Mom and Dad were their first choices whenever they got to choose who to spend time with. My parents were very fucking smug about that too.I had been asked if we were done having pups. The answer was no. My mate and I wanted t
Destined Alpha of Change Bonus Chapter - The Underworld Welcomes Calvin
MADDOXIt was finally here – a day that I had been looking forward to for the past twenty-four years ever since Hades told Beauty what was going to happen. Today was the day that Beauty and I would be visiting Calvin in the Underworld.Some might assume that it was fucked up for someone to be excited to see their biological parent in an eternal prison that was reserved for the worst offenders within the supernatural world. I did not give a fuck about what those people thought because he fucking deserved eternal torment for everything that he had done in life. Not to mention that he had tortured my mate, and that simply served to intensify my murderous thoughts when it came to my sperm donor.Calvin was never a father to me. I highly doubted that there was even an ounce of empathy inside of him unless it was self-serving. He might not have been a father, but I did indeed have one. Theo had taken me under his wing and taught me what it meant to be a man, mate, father, and Alpha. He taugh

There was so much of Beauty in her. Our daughter was a true badass just like her mother. She was so fucking strong and so fucking resilient. I was incredibly proud to be her father.Before Beauty came into the picture, I had never allowed myself to imagine a future where I would have pups because I felt like a piece of shit that would destroy anything that I touched, including a mate and pups. However, my amazing mate brought me out of the darkness that had at one point consumed my entire life.“Dad, can you help me with my tie?” Roman asked.I finished tying my own first and turned around to smile at my son. He looked really fucking suave in his suit.“Sure thing, son.”My other son also popped on over to get

KALEN(Five years later)I rested back on my hands while I watched the beautiful sight in front of me. It was one that I saw often but never got tired of witnessing it.My amazing mate was playing tag with our daughter. Her peels of laughter floated along the wind. It warmed me just as much as the summer sun did.Nadine was definitely daddy’s girl, something that absolutely thrilled him. He was an incredible father, but I had never had a doubt that he would be.Sundays were family days for the three of us. It was our special bonding time and what we always looked forward to. Life got hectic, especially leading the pack and all of the programs that we were a part of. That was precisely why it was imperative that we took time to be with each other as well.“Daddy!” she squealed when he scooped her up in his strong arms.Damn. He was fucking fine and only got sexier as time went on. He still rocked a body that made me drool on a daily basis, and I was not ashamed of that truth.“That’s ri
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 115
KALENI had never felt sad to return how before. However, I was sad that our vacation had come to an end.Goddess, it was such an amazing experience! I could not have asked for a better travel buddy than my mate. Each destination had been thoroughly thought out and planned. He made certain to arrange all of the places that I had dreamed of visiting and even some that I had never heard about before.We had a blast. Our days and nights were filled with exploring. There was plenty of romance too. Both of us felt closer than ever before. It was amazing for us to get away from reality and immerse ourselves in a world away from everything. We were in our own little bubble.That was not to say that I did not miss anyone though because I did.“I was thinking about something,” my mate said from the seat beside me. I hummed, curious to see what was on his mind.We were about to land at the airport. We would pick up our luggage and head somewhere secluded where our literal disappearances would no
