The Lightning Wolf Chronicles

"How dare you?" Acacia's voice cracks with rage. "How dare you let them throw you a birthday party?" Blood fills my mouth. I bite down hard, refusing to scream. "They never threw ME a party!" She shrieks. "But they all revolve around YOU!" My wolf snarls inside my head, desperate to break free. But I force her back. Can't shift. Not here. When they finally see what have happened to me, I face them with exhaustion: "Everything you guys worship? I hate it. Survival of the fittest, strong picking on weak... We're werewolves. We have brains, feelings, the ability to choose kindness." The triplets stare in shock as I continue. "If I took your help now, what's the difference between me and you? I'd just be another person benefiting from this screwed-up system." Magnus steps forward. "Evelyn, we can change—" "Can you? When you're leaders, you gonna tell all the high-ranking wolves that everyone gets treated equal now?" Silence. "I hope when I leave, it reminds you of something." *** Evelyn has endured years of brutal abuse while keeping her early-awakened wolf and deadly combat abilities hidden from everyone in Polaris Pack. When the future Alpha triplets and their inner circle finally discover her secrets, they're horrified by what they've overlooked. But Evelyn refuses their help. She's learned to survive by staying invisible, protecting weaker pack members by drawing the bullies' attention to herself instead. With silver-laced scars as proof of her suffering and three powerful Alpha heirs determined to break down her walls, will Evelyn find the strength to challenge the pack's cruel hierarchy? Or will revealing her true power destroy everything she's sacrificed to protect before she can claim her freedom?
