Not every wolf is lucky enough to be born into a pack.

Some had the misfortune to be birthed by rogues.

Banished from the shifters society, Rogues are branded as criminals and treated as less than. Cut off from their packs, most barely last a few years before losing their minds as well.

Rogues-borns are different. Born to savage creatures with no humanity left in their cursed souls, they have no family to mourn, no sins to repent, nothing to lose.

Alpha's decreed all Rogue-borns to be killed on sight, for the protection of the packs.

But Rain isn’t a threat. She was just born unlucky.

Forced into the life of a scavenger on the streets, begging for food from human scraps and always searching for a place to call home.

Until one day, she wanders too far into the forest on the edge of the city.

There, she meets the Ashwood Pack and their Alpha, Orion.

Mate, he says.

But that’s impossible.

When it rains

Many times they had to stop, hiding behind walls and buildings as Accalia led her to the doctor’s house but they arrived. 


Rain wasn’t sure why they were so desperate in looking for her but she’s sure it wasn’t anything good. 


Even amidst the chaos, the Doctor’s house remained unguarded. Only a single guard upfront which Rain dealt with by distracting with a common technique. 


A pebble in one of the large garbage bins and once he checked it out, a quick push and a lock and boom, they were free. 


It was disturbing how easy it all was. If a real criminal had snuck in here to poison a child, it’d be a piece of cake. 


Rain frowned. That’s something she’d have to warn Orion about. 


Accalia directed her through the doctor’s room, ignoring the rooms filled with sick and injured wolves.
