Cover by Mibl Arts Dedication This book couldn’t have been possible without a handful of exceptionally talented and special people. I’d like to thank my writing coach Philemon for helping me with my weak spots. To my editor Michelle for all of her hard work and endless time playing whack-a-mole with my errors and her support throughout the process, including the anxiety at the end. You’re amazing. Thank you to my betas. You helped shape the Alpha Gods and their story. Heather, you were there from the start and helped give heart to these characters. Andrea, my chubby dragon, you continue to inspire me and motivate me to push further with each book. Raven, Kristen, Pink Roar, and Tori, you’re new beta readers but you helped me get over the finish line. Thank you Angela for being a true friend. You’ve got the spot, crazy lady. Can’t wait to write with you soon. And a special thank you to Robyn, without you I wouldn’t have been able to get this far. Your constant support and friendship helps keep me going, and I appreciate you. I can’t wait to cheer you on too <3 And because I don’t want to be sat on, to my beloved sister who probably won’t read this book because the ‘good stuff’ doesn’t come until a later book. She’s supported me since the start and it’s still crazy cool that I can talk to her for hours about the worlds I’ve created. Thank you so much, I love you. Contents Fullpage Image 1.

The Sacrifice of the Alpha Gods About Maria Warren Warning: The Silverton wolves are bullies and Lee will suffer degradation at their hands before her tale is complete, if this is something that will bother you, turn back now. Chapter one Welcome to SilvertonHow much are you willing to suffer for the sake of those you love? I was willing to sacrifice my entire future, everything I had ever wanted since I was a child. For the great Silverton University didn’t dabble in the type of degrees I was interested in, the future that I so desperately wanted to have wouldn’t be something I would find within these walls.I’ve given it all up to save my brother, King.Most wouldn’t consider entering a university all that big of a sacrifice. Shouldn’t everyone be jumping at the chance to get access to a once-in-a-lifetime spot?Silverton was the kind of place that could make dreams come true, or if my best friend Reuben was to be believed, your worst nightmares. Not everyone that entered these hallowed halls managed to step out of them.Only the most select candidates were accepted, and it wasn’t academics alone that could get you through the door. No, you needed the right kind of breeding, and of course enough money to buy entire cities.I had none of those things.My family was poor and we couldn’t trace our lineage back to Gods and Goddesses from thousands of years ago. We merely survived.I was only here because my brother had contracted a rare disease, one that was insanely expensive to treat. I’d even considered trying to sell myself to cover the cost but it wouldn’t have come close to the amount I needed.Instead, I am here to sell my future. I will attend this school where I will likely be hated, and endure anything I have to in order to get the perks that going to Silverton entails. Because, while I couldn’t afford a doctor, they could. Getting a scholarship slot, which they rarely ever fill, is nearly impossible. It’s taken everything inside of me, and a plea to the sole connection I have within this den of vipers, to get inside. Even with all of that, I’d barely gotten the spot. Now, I have access to superstar specialists, with teams of well-known researchers behind them, and all the latest technology.King’s tardoxia, an extremely rare blood disorder, would be treated and maybe even cured while I suffered my way through this school. Rue had already let me know ahead of time how my station in life was treated at a ritzy place like this.I wouldn’t have to accept his death.Though part of me was still worried that a horrible mistake had been made and the Silverton staff would notice it, tossing me out on my ass. What would I do if I got kicked out? What would my family do?The school had not only taken care of every need my brother could have, but they’d elevated my family from living in a tiny
