Blood Law (Blood Moon Rising Trilogy #1) by Karin Tabke

Falon Corbet is almost malnourished. She is an orphan who has been living on her own for a while now. She ran away from her last home and she never stays in a place for too long. She has some episodes of rage that she can't explain which makes it hard to keep a job. When she goes into a convenience store to steal food she meets a man, who calls himself a slayer and wants her to join him. She tries to fight him but he is stronger than her. Then her life becomes even weirder when another man comes in and after an epic fight with swords kills the man who hurt her. The man who saves her is Rafael Vulkasin. He is an alpha Lycan. His mission is to kill as many slayers as he can. He decides to mark her as her chosen believing she is human.
Rafael had a fourteen year fight with his twin alpha brother Lucien Mondragon. Rafa killed Lucien's chosen. He believes she was a slayer using black magic. He was defending his people. Luca doesn't believe him. He is only waiting fot the time when Rafael marks someone so he can kill her. The Blood Law says that no Lycan will lay with a Slayer. And if a Lycan killed another Lycan's property, then an Eye for an Eye is the law. Rafael has taken his time marking a female because he feels guilty about getting a innocent killed. But time is running out.
To Luca's surprise the woman his brother has chosen is different, she has powers and speaks up her mind too. He decides to keep her alive for a while longer.
The brothers are cursed to spend time as wolves, one during the day and one during the night. Only two hours a day are they both humans at the same time (dusk and dawn).
There is huge love triangle in this series. This is part of a trilogy. Beware it ends in a cliff hanger.
Thanks Joanne for the recommendation.
