"Get moving, or I'll throw soap in your eyes." As Jordan continued to obstruct my stride, I issued a warning. "You're the one getting in my way... YOU get up." With a chuckle in his voice, he instructed. "I'll nipple cripple you if you don't move..." I threatened to make him raise his arms to conceal his chest. "Why would you want to violate mine when I always look after you?" I put my palm over his face before he could say anything. --A pack enclosed by high walls. Nobody could get in, and no one could get out. An Alpha who is well-known for utilizing weapons instead of claws. Why? Nobody knows. Allison had suspected Jordan of keeping something from her when they first met. What? She couldn't wait to find out. She was, after all, an Alpha. It was unusual for two Alphas to imprint on one another. But there was nothing typical about Jordan and Allison. They were remarkable people with incredible secrets and responsibilities. But they need to find out what they're doing soon before time runs out. Before someone much more powerful catches up with them. Someone who has lived for centuries.
Some of the towns, streets, nations, and continents referenced in this book are made up, while some are not. This takes place in a semi-parallel supernatural reality.
Many of the items here would make little sense if they existed in this world. If you're perplexed as to why some historical events don't match, it's probably because they don't live in this reality.

Supernatural entities inhabited the world in the first century. The Spirits bestowed upon them various magical abilities. They had offspring who did not inherit their parents' abilities.
The concord between fairies, witches, vampires, warlocks, werewolves, and others caused a significant growth in the number of creatures without abilities.
Humanoid beings with brightly colored, white, or black wings flew over the air, while those with gills, thin skin, and tails with luminescent scales instead of legs flooded the waters. There were so many different colors and so much beauty. They were the equivalent of Gods and Goddesses, Kings and Queens.
Then the country's inhabitants started to interbreed, giving rise to mankind.
Everything fell apart in less than two centuries. Magical beings soon became mythical creatures. Jealousy develops in humans. They desired the power, but they began to destroy the supernatural realm when they couldn't have it.
Humans began to turn against their own pure-born families and friends. Using their own family's secrets, they started making weapons out of molten silver, such as wooden stakes, nets, and iron traps. The supernatural population was fast dwindling.
Humans took control within a thousand years, and every supernatural entity transformed into an animal or stayed as human as possible to fit in. When witches and warlocks were being burnt at stake, survival was essential.
The pure-born had lost their desire to battle.
They'd battled for millennia, but it wasn't enough when humans could reproduce and the supernatural couldn't. They were not only a few, but they were also in great danger.
Interbreeding between supernatural creatures was no longer tolerated. It made no difference how much a supernatural entity loved another. One mistake their forefathers made that they were resolved not to repeat was interbreeding.
The Spirit World abruptly crumbled. They were unable to govern or harm people. They were neither Spirits of the Moon, Sun, or Stars, nor were they Spirits of Fire, Earth, Water, or Wind.
Their mayhem left the globe in shambles. The great Spirits, on the other hand, knew one thing. They need more pure-born offspring – youngsters of their race. Mates were assigned to individuals who had been gifted abilities by the Spirits. Souls got entwined, ensuring a pure-born while forming a tie that even death could not break.
Some werewolf packs opted to remain in their original state; they used to struggle for more territory and food. Others opted to be human, even governing as Kings and Queens. They were compelled to integrate their human form after the Great War began.
That's when the werewolves agreed to form a pact. Instead of attacking humans, they stopped fighting each other, mainly if their partners were in another pack.
The shift to having mates was difficult at first, not only for werewolves but for all magical beings. As a result, the Spirits led them to each other. They made sure that they would meet regardless of where, how, or when.
This was not only a technique to advance the supernatural race, but it was also a way to prevent Hybrids from arising. When two different abilities met, a hybrid was produced instead of a person. A one-in-a-billion probability, at best.
However, that Hybrid, that specific kid, would not only have both abilities but once fully developed, they could wreak devastation on the planet like no other.
And the Spirit world would go to any length to prevent them.
