Under the Wolf's Shadow

In a world where werewolves rule with iron claws, humans are second-class citizens, treated as little more than cattle for labor and resources. The hierarchy is simple: werewolves are the dominant species, and humans are forced to live in the shadows, their rights limited, their freedom non-existent.In this harsh society, a law exists that terrifies every human-if a human is found to be the mate of a werewolf, they must undergo the transformation into a werewolf within ten days of the discovery, or they will be executed. The law, known as the "e;Mate's Edict,"e; was designed to ensure that only those who could truly become part of the werewolf world are allowed to live. But what happens when a human is forced to choose between becoming something he never wanted or dying?
