HISTORY IS WRITTEN BY THE SURVIVORS AND THUS ― BOUND TO REPEAT ITSELF. Hunters stalk their prey until someone cries enough. But a truce never holds. After all, it's not in the hunter's nature to live peacefully alongside its prey. A supernatural town like Beacon Hills had been witness to many such a truce. One in particulair colored the history page of the town's supernatural records pitch black.

And it was because of that very truce Nola's family had been torn apart. Her father put his trust in the wrong person. Dooming their entire pack in a failed attempt of making peace with the greatest family of hunters of all. A name that terrified her still, Argent. Her mother was murdered that day. And her father ― her father became a monster. The Demon Wolf, feared by every Alpha and the worst nightmare of every Beta.

And Nola?

Nola became bloody knuckles, bared teeth and a heart filled with shards of glass. She turned stone cold, because it was easier to live with her mistakes and the wrath of the world if her heart was hardened against any form of guilt or remorse. What she hadn't counted on however was a certain human boy with a determination to get into trouble, to come stumbling into her life. Completely unrelentless and almost annoyingly persistant in trying to get her to ask that one important question:

Are monsters born or created?

OR IN WHICH;  Nola Newcrest is desperate to atone for her sins and Stiles Stilinski is determined to take some of the weight from her shoulders.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Teen Wolf or any of the characters, plot or dialogue. They belong to Jeff Davis, MTV and all the other creators involved. I only own the characters, plot and dialogue I created for my ocs. Stealing this is plagarism and will not be tolerated.

WARNINGS: This story contains strong language, blood, gore & death, violence, mentions of injuries and sexual activites. Please proceed with caution.

LAYOUT: The layout of this story is inspired by -voidlegends. All credits go to her. All graphics are created by me, unless stated otherwise.

CONTINUITY: This book is the first book in my Teen Wolf fanfiction series called: Of Monsters and Men. These books can be read as standalones but other oc's will make an appearence.

LORE: For the sake of this fanfiction I have altered some of the Teen Wolf lore. I've also added my own ideas to the already existing lore and expanded it. I will also make some changes to some of the storylines. I hope you guys will enjoy my ideas!

DEDICATIONS: To the people who supported the idea of this fic and inspire me to write:

AUTHOR'S NOTE: I've had an idea for a Teen Wolf fic since I joined wattpad (almost six years ago now holy shit). And considering Teen Wolf was my very first fandom experience, it was only a matter of time before I was going to publish it. But only now am I at a place comfortable enough with the current plot and characters that I felt like it should be published. Also the overwhelming positive reactions I got when suggesting I should publish this book warmed my heart.

Quick side note, Stiles will not be the only love interest Nola has in this book. I'm not a big fan of love triangles, so don't worry about that. But please be nice in the comments! Please accept that this is the story I've chosen to tell and don't start hate against certain characters because they're in the way of your ship. Thank you!

I hope you're all just as excited about Nola and her journey as I am!
