The Unwanted Little Witch Shifter

Fifteen-year-old Melica has always stood between worlds, born of a witch mother and a shapeshifter father exiled before her birth. On the eve of her initiation into the coven, Melica's magic refuses to choose a single element, unleashing a dangerous blend of fire, water, earth, and air that shocks the elders and terrifies the village. Branded, unstable, and cursed, she's denied the place she's dreamed of her entire life. But when an ancient prophecy awakens, and a powerful exile named Varion comes hunting for her blood, Melica is thrust into a dangerous battle between the coven that fears her and the shadowed forces that seek to claim her. Varion offers her power and belonging if she'll help him open the forbidden gate that seals the realm of chaos. The coven demands loyalty, even as they plot to bind her wild magic. With only the animals of the wild as her trusted companions, Melica must navigate betrayal, buried family secrets, and a growing power that threatens to consume her from within. Faced with impossible choices, she must decide who she truly is: witch, shifter, outcast, or something entirely new. If she chooses wrong, both her world and the human realm could fall into ruin. In The Unwanted Little Witch Shifter, a coming-of-age fantasy rich with elemental magic, ancient rivalries, and a heroine determined to write her own story, Melica learns that sometimes the most extraordinary power comes from embracing every part of yourself, even the parts others fear.
