Diablerie by S J Tweed
A novella set in the otherworld.
Freya is many things: a former science experiment, a reject from a family that has disowned her, and a talented welder. Yet, everyone knows she was never meant to be born. Her witchcraft is too great to be anything other than a danger to the coven that has begrudgingly taken her under its wing, and a liability to the werewolf pack she spent her adolescence with.
Fact is, she will always be separated from her happy place, her chance at contentment, if she can’t fulfil her quest to set the others free.
If it weren’t for Lachlan, the werewolf of her unrequited infatuation, she’d probably have gone into hiding years ago. Although she doesn’t see him much these days, and only she knows the real reason why. However, Freya must confront their complicated history when her coven sister, Nell, reanimates (and loses) a corpse that she summoned for all the wrong reasons.
As the trio scrambles to track the body down before it reveals itself to the humans— and with a rip in the magic lines on the cards—Freya's unstoppable, yet unbridled power becomes both an asset and a curse.
What's more, Freya might have an unsettling, personal connection to this dead runaway, after all...
