Mystical Schemes. Shifter Squad Next Gen, #8

With so many strong personalities living in one building, tensions are bound to flare up sometimes. When Sydney pushes Crowmon too far, they learn that it's a very bad idea to mock a god. Their trivial arguments turn nasty and he casts a spell that will result in more than just bruised egos. During one of their missions, the squad faces a target that's far too strong and well-armored for them to take down.
They will need to rely on Alex to raise something strong enough to defeat it. Agent Steel and his wife have temporarily joined the team during this job. As tests go, this one is a doozy. Alex comes face to face with Irene Dawson again and an unexpected ally comes to her aid. Everyone has a breaking point and each new trauma is pushing Alex closer to hers. Seeing her friends finding their mates and being so happy can only add to her growing misery.
