"Listen Nilsa."His breathing is short. Ragged. Uneven. "Listen to me."Bloody hands grab my own as they grip tightly to my skin. Red of revolution seeping into me as he drags me down to be eye level. Drags me down to be with him, and whispers softly to my ears, "There is no price for freedom."*****Nilsa is not like them. The ones who can take the spirit of the wolf, tame it, and then shift into creatures of legends. She is not like them. It comes and goes. Uncontrolled. Random. Not stable.

An error that appeared despite generations of accumulated power. But what if strength is found in something else? What if Nilsa had another power- another weapon?

There are certain things in life that everyone knows. When asked though, how they came to possess knowledge of this information, a confused look will enter their face. Because there are just certain things in life- certain facts and pieces of knowledge - that are universal. Fact number one. In order to be Alpha in the Alba Rosa pack, one must first challenge and defeat the Alpha. Fact number two. It's a trick. Because only one in possession of Alpha Blood has any hope of defeating the Alpha. Fact number three. No one challenges the Alpha. But there is another fact. An additional piece of knowledge that many know of, yet never express out loud. Fact number four. These three facts do not apply to someone like Soraya.
