KAITO MCCOY HAS HAD a recurring dream for as long as she can remember. She's standing in an all-white area of space, not quite a room because she's in a place where walls do not exist, but more of a pocket of nothing. The only other living person besides herself has consistently been a boy with a crooked jaw and kind brown eyes. They've never swapped names — names do not exist in the dream, either — but she has an undeniable sensation that she knows him despite never meeting him in real life.
That changes when Kai moves to Beacon Hills halfway through tenth grade. At first, she assumes that the tiny town will be just like the other temporary homes she's moved to throughout the years. Traveling from foster home to foster home doesn't give her much time to make friends. It's easier that way— make no attachments and you won't get hurt. Only when she'd met her new locker neighbor on her first day of school, she'd been in for a paralyzing shock. She'd recognize his face anywhere. The same crooked jaw, the same kind eyes...
She'd met her Dream Boy. Literally.
Determined as she'd been to stay out of her academic peers' lives as she always had, Kai hadn't been able to resist Scott McCall's overwhelming magnetism that attracts troubled kids to him. She'd listened. She'd learned. And she'd slipped notes into Scott's locker whenever she could, hoping that her findings would help him out.
The members of his friend group are individuals who seem like they would hardly get along. An alpha werewolf. A phantom. A banshee. A kitsune. A phoenix. A were-coyote. A human. They're all jagged and mismatched edges, but when put together, the pieces fit like a perfect puzzle— one in which there doesn't seem to be any room for Kai.
Not that she minds. Kai is content with staying on the sidelines of the pack, watching from afar as they struggle to figure out who their mystery Good Samaritan is. But when she'd finally been caught slipping a note into his locker, she'd been physically roped into their shenanigans whether she liked it or not.
She's never had close friends. But maybe — just maybe — she can make this one exception. Maybe this time it'll be worth the pain of leaving.
DOMINIC SHIRE DOESN'T KNOW how much more of this bullshit he can handle. Since he'd discovered the existence of the supernatural at the age of five, his life has never known peace. He and his friends have seemingly fought off the year's troubles and retained order in their town after his boyfriend had been possessed by an evil spirit that had wreaked havoc for months.
It turns out that no amount of wishful thinking can make things stay normal in Beacon Hills.
Now that Scott, Allison, and Stiles had re-awakened a powerful entity called the Nemeton, supernatural creatures are being drawn to Beacon Hills left and right. Along with that comes the hunters. However, these aren't mere werewolf hunters like the Argents. Suddenly, every supernatural creature in town has a bounty placed on their head and people are lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to kill them. "Money is the root of all evil," or whatever that saying is.
Since Dominic has recently gained fire powers and healing tears, among other things, this is a problem.
The second half of Junior year brings more chaos than the McCall pack could have imagined. Fighting for their lives while trying to stay in school becomes a conflict once again, and the addition of new pack members is threatening to make the powder keg explode. Dom just hopes he'll be able to protect his friends from the inevitable flames.

this book is part of my UNCHOSEN ONES series. while it is not necessary to read all of the books, some parts are connected.

a/n:
i haven't written a split POV story since my very early wattpad days, so i hope that this book will go the way i want it to. i originally only wanted this to be from kai's point of view, but then i realized that also including dom would give me a chance to show the things that kai doesn't see. also, i think his and vera's interactions with young!derek will be HILARIOUS.
please bear with me as i attempt to write the two different POVs. i don't think i'm going to switch every single chapter, but i'm going to mark each chapter with whose POV it is at the beginning. think of it like rick riordan's heroes of olympus series.
this book is connected to my isaac lahey fanfiction, mostly ghostly. you do not necessarily have to read it to understand what's going on in this book, but there will be spoilers for it since this is season 4, so i do STRONGLY suggest that you read it before this. it'll also reference things that happened in MG, so you may be confused. i will also be including 6b in mostly ghostly in which the events of both books are tied together for the ending of the show, so look out for that!
