[Lycanaeris 01] • The Altered 2

A remote farmhouse in Cornwall seems the perfect place for Ash to settle into

his recently altered status. Starting a new life there with Sam—the shifter he

can’t stay away from—should be easy this far from London where they faced so

much danger. So why does adjusting seem impossible?

Sam has issues of his own. He has to get used to his human form again after

living the last eight years as a wolf. It’s hard when human worries weigh so

heavily on his shoulders. Life is much more straightforward from a wolf’s

perspective, until Ash needs his human support.

Ash’s problem is simple: he’s fearful of shifting fully. How can he believe he

won’t hurt Sam when his genes were altered to create a killer? Despite

repeated reassurance, his anger and resentment increase. Only one thing is

certain: if Ash can’t learn to trust himself soon, he’s in danger of proving

himself right.
