Elena has just found out that Jeremy is looking to retire and also to make her the new pack Alpha.

|title=The Naming of the Beasts (Felix Castor)
|rating=3.5
|genre=Fantasy
|summary=Felix Castor is a talented exorcist living in London, with zombies, ghosts and succubi for friends, and the odd human. His best friend, Rafi, has been taken over by a demon called Asmodeus, for which Felix feels slightly responsible. As such, he needs to get Rafi back to normal - the problem is that Asmodeus has other ideas - basically to kill everyone who has anything to do with Rafi. Felix himself is probably on the list, but before he worries about himself, he needs to do something about his closest friends - namely Pen, his landlady, Juliet, a succubus (a demonic female spirit) and Sue, Juliet's lover. At the same time, there are horrible things going on in a central London gym, and Castor must do something about it before people start to die. Can he solve all his problems without losing any of his loved ones?

|summary=Life with a werewolf is a question of balances. You have to swing your new-found status as the motherly, calming, but powerful Omega wolf, with his Alpha-male studly status.
