Blood of the Shifter

One vial. One heartbeat. One choice that could orphan the world. Long ago, humans and shape-shifters coexisted—until Lord Mayor, a thunder-wielding alpha consumed by power, shattered the balance. He slaughtered humanity and vowed to rebuild the world in his image. To rule forever, he needed immortality. When Dr. Greenfield Rogan discovered the Alpha Virus, capable of turning humans into immortal shifters, Lord Mayor demanded it. Greenfield refused—and paid with his life. In a storm of lightning and blood, he and his wife were murdered, but their son Darius escaped with the last vial. Now, the virus awakens within him, twisting his humanity and forcing him to confront the beast inside. But when Darius discovers his destined mate, Selene, he faces the cruelest truth of all—she is Lord Mayor’s daughter. Torn between vengeance and love, Darius must decide whether to save the girl who owns his heart… or destroy the monster who took his family. When the final moon rises, will he become humanity’s savior—or the god who ends it?
