The Mafia Alpha human studentUpdated at Oct 23, 2026, 14:50
On my 18th birthday, my wolf was supposed to wake up. Instead, I woke up human.My name is Ava Carter, and I am the only wolfless girl in Silver Moon Academy. On the day everyone else shifted for the first time, I stood shaking in my uniform while the entire class laughed. "The Moon Goddess made a mistake with you," my Alpha told me. "You have one week to leave this school and never come back."With no pack, no wolf, and a sick mother to feed, I had one option: disappear into the human world. I needed money for a human university application, so I put on my only good dress and walked into the most dangerous place in Houston to beg for a job - Club Inferno.Everyone in Houston knows who owns Club Inferno. Damon Volkov. Damon Russo. Damon Aleksandr Volkov.Billionaire. Mafia King. The Alpha of Shadowfang - the most powerful and feared werewolf mafia pack in America. A man who never smiles. A man whose fated mate died five years ago wearing maroon, and who banned the color from his entire territory since then. A man who is rumored to have no heart at all.I didn't know any of that when I walked in.I just knew he was the most handsome and most terrifying man I had ever seen. Tall, black suit, amber eyes that glowed gold when they landed on me. The air changed when he looked at me. Cold. Electric. Dangerous.He leaned down, inches from my neck, and inhaled.And growled one word that changed my entire life: "Mine."Damon Russo just scented his fated second-chance mate. And his mate is me. A broke, wolfless, human student who can't even shift.He doesn't want a mate. He swore he would never love again after losing his first Luna. But his wolf won't let me go. He claims me on the spot as his personal assistant for $500 a night, with one condition: I never leave his sight. Because his enemies, the Ricci Mafia, saw me walk into his club, and now they think they have finally found the Mafia Alpha's only weakness - me.To protect me, he moves me into his bulletproof penthouse. He sleeps on the floor so I can have the bed. He buys me dresses in maroon, his favorite color, the color he hates and loves. He introduces me to his pack as their future Luna, even though I am human and have no wolf.But I am not safe. Someone is sending him photos of me. Someone burned down my dorm. Someone wants me dead to prove that the strongest Alpha can be brought down by love. And the more time I spend with Damon, the more I realize my heart is beating for a man who could destroy me with one touch.He says I am human. But why do I start hearing a voice in my head at night? Why does my blood turn hot when he touches me? Why does the mark on my wrist - a maroon crescent moon I was born with - start to glow whenever he is close?I am Ava Carter, the wolfless student everyone rejected. But what if I was never wolfless at all? What if I am the reincarnation of his dead mate? What if the Moon Goddess didn't make a mistake with me - she made me specifically for him?He is a Mafia Alpha who thinks love is weakness. She is a human student who thinks she is powerless. Together, they will have to survive rival mafia attacks, pack betrayals, a burning academy, and a secret that will change the werewolf world forever.He will burn the whole city to keep her.
