Mia has always known she was different, but she never imagined how much. Raised in the human world by her mother, she's spent years hiding her wolf side, unaware of the truth about her heritage. But everything changes after a violent incident at school draws attention to her abilities, forcing her mother to flee with her to Oakwood-a secret realm where wolves reign. In Oakwood, Mia discovers the truth: she is a rare hybrid, the only white wolf of her kind, and the prophesied Mint of the Alpha, destined to bring peace to a fractured world. As she struggles to control her powers and navigate a life she never wanted, Mia learns of the council's dark rule-a regime that thrives on human blood-and their relentless efforts to eliminate her to prevent the prophecy from being fulfilled. With the help of Lucian, the Alpha destined to be her mate, Mia must fight to save her father, who has been imprisoned for defying the council. As danger looms and betrayal threatens to tear everything apart, Mia must embrace her destiny and unite wolves and humans in a fragile but hopeful peace. Caught between two worlds, Mia faces a battle for survival, freedom, and a future where both humans and wolves can live without fear. Will she rise to the challenge, or will her enemies succeed in destroying her-and the hope she represents?
"I still can't figure out why I'm half-wolf, but my mom keeps telling me that one day I'll discover who I am. I find it incredibly difficult to accept my life, especially when I feel like I don't fit in. Being a half-wolf surrounded by humans can be overwhelming, and it's hard to imagine a place where I truly belong.
"The fact that I have to live with it my whole life is tough. Come to think of it, I don't know anything about my father, and my mom hardly mentions him to me. I've lived with my mom my whole life and know little to nothing about my dad. So, I've decided not to ask her. Maybe she just doesn't want to talk about it, Enough about my mom and dad. My name is Mia, and I'll be turning 18 in a few days.
I'm unsure how to feel about my upcoming 18th birthday, as my mom keeps telling me it'll be my 'wolf awakening day.' I'm still in high school, and I don't have many friends. However, I do have one close friend, Alexa. We were childhood friends since we lived next door to each other and attended the same school. Even after she moved away with her parents, we remained friends because she chose to attend the same school as me. I'm not the type to make friends easily, mainly because I'm afraid of being rejected or judged. The last thing I want is for people to find out that I'm not entirely human. My mom always warns me to be careful.
"You're not eating your food, Mia. You've barely taken a spoonful," my mom said.
"I'm eating, Mom," I replied.
"Hurry up, you'll be late for school. It's already past 7."
That's when I remembered I had school. I started to panic, wondering, "Did I do my assignment? It's Monday, and Mrs. Claire gave it to us on Friday. She doesn't joke about her assignments."
"I'm coming, Mom!" I shouted.
"Where are you going, Mia?" she asked.
"I'll be right back!" I replied, rushing out of the room and closing the door behind me
"I didn't dare tell her I hadn't done my assignment because she asked me if I had, and I said yes. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a lying type. I was just trying to watch my favorite show when she told me to go do my assignment, so that's why I told her I'd already done it.
"I went straight to my bag, took out Mrs. Claire's assignment, and started working on it. 'Hey Siri, please help me with this,' I said, sitting in bed, where I remained until I finished. It's not like I'm a dumbass. I do all my assignments with the help of AI Of course, I listen to my teachers in class and do everything I'm supposed to do. School isn't just for me, but my mom doesn't understand this," I said, laughing at myself.
"Mia, your food is getting cold!" I heard my mom call from the dining room. I rushed to the dining room to quickly finish my meal Yh l and head to school. I stuffed the whole bread into my mouth and poured the tea almost immediately.
"Don't choke yourself," my mom warned.
"Is my lunch box packed?" I mumbled, struggling to talk with my mouth full.
It's in the sitting room,' my mom replied. I ran to my room, got dressed, grabbed my bag and lunch box, and headed out to school. I'm known for being late to school, which is ironic since the school isn't even far from my house.
Mia, Mia, wait for me!" she exclaimed, rushing towards me. At once, I knew it was Alexa. Come to think of it, she's early today. I know I don't usually go to school early, but whenever I look at Alexa, she gives me hope. That's one reason why we're still friends - after all, it's said that birds of a feather flock together. "Did you do your assignment?" she asked, gasping for breath. "We're late already. Let's run inside before that skimpy security guy makes us stay outside. Remember what happened last time?"
"Please," Alexa said, tugging at my clothes and pouting her mouth as if she was about to cry. "Drama queen!" I teased, and we both burst out laughing. Sometimes I think Alexa is not just a friend, but a sister. She's the main reason I keep going to school, and I don't know how she'd feel if one day she found out about my secret - the facts I've hidden from her all this while. Despite her being my best friend, I think the thought of her never knowing is the best way for us to remain friends and enjoy the little time we have.
"Mia, the book!" Alexa said again, bringing my mind back to the book issue. So I gave her the book, and we walked into our class.
"Little wolf, the principal is calling you," she said, without letting me say a word, and walked away. That was Lila, the head girl. She's intelligent, smart, and pretty - boys often drool over her. Another thing about Lila is that she has a group called "The Girls," which you can only join if you're in her class. Neither I nor Alexa was interested in joining her group, which is one reason she doesn't like us.
Being wanted by the principal made me wonder, "What have I done?" Christopher, the principal, doesn't call someone to his office without a good reason. I couldn't remember doing anything wrong, but I always ended up in the principal's office after fighting with Lila. This time, however, I hadn't done anything to provoke her.
I promised myself that I'd never fight Lila again over Jayden. It's not like we're competing for him; we're just friends. Jayden used to be Lila's boyfriend, but now we're just friends. Still, Lila seems to have a problem with us talking, and she always wants to fight me about it.
I know I like Jayden, but it's just a crush. Besides, I know I'm not meant for him. I'm not like everyone else - I'm different, unlike Jayden and the people I care about. So, I know I'm being delusional; nothing is going on between Jayden and me. I just want us to be friends, and I want to go to school without drama. That's all I've ever wanted - not to get caught up in a rivalry with Lila over Jayden.
I stood up without a word and walked to the principal's office. I knocked, "Come in. Said the principal from the inside..............

"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin. My mind screamed at me to push him away-the Lycan Prince who had humiliated me again and again, but my body betrayed me, leaning into him before I could stop myself. He pressed his lips against mine, and his kiss grew more aggressive, more possessive as I felt my legs weaken. What was I doing? In a split-second, I pulled away and slapped him hard across the face. Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement. "You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate." "And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go." "Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you."
