LISA
I replayed the video again and listened to Josh talk: "Hey guys, I never thought a day would come when I would have to do this, but yes, I have to do this."
"My wedding was supposed to be today, but before today, I found out my fiancée, Lisa, has been diagnosed with some mental problem. I don't want to go into details."
"But I didn't mind. I love her a whole lot, and she was responding to treatment. She sometimes exhibits disturbing traits, but I had it under control until Christmas Eve."
"Lisa came around to unwrap the gifts I got for her. It's something I have been doing for the past two years. Out of the blue, she started saying incoherent things and ran off."
"I wanted to give her space, thinking she would come back as always, but alas, my baby never showed up. Not for her surprise bridal shower or our wedding, and I am so worried." The idiot was faking the tears.
"We are currently looking for her. If found anywhere, please kindly call the number on the screen."
"Damn you, Josh. Freaking damn you!" I saw the love emojis and hugs people were sending to him in the comments.
I knew what he was trying to do. To silence what I saw and make it look like I am mentally unstable.
My teeth were vibrating. I had never been this livid. "Oh, I hate you, Josh, and you will pay with your life."

I was still staring at the pictures. My cheeks were beginning to hurt from smiling.
I had never felt this alive like I did today. Watching her play with the snow, dance, jump, and giggle. But that subconscious mind kept reminding me how wrong all of this is.
I heard a knock, and the door opened almost immediately, and Lisa stormed in angrily. I had to hide the photo in my hand.
"I want to use your power to kill that bloody idiot. I want him to ask for help, and none will come."
She was breathing hard and talking too much, but I could tell she was furious.
"Okay, who is this person?" I asked her.
"My fiancé, no, ex-fiancé. I caught him on the bed, pants down, with his step mum on Christmas Eve. That wasn't all. The fool made a video telling everyone that I ran away because I am mad."
She started laughing, but I could tell she was hurting. "Our wedding was freaking supposed to be today."
Shit! Now I feel bad for sleeping with her. She was nursing a heartbreak.
"Tell me, how do you want him dead? His heart ripped out with his kidney dangling outside, or a painful and slow death?"
"Huh?"
Her eyes almost popped out, which made me smirk. "My daughter said I make the best cupcakes. Maybe you could be the judge. Stay here, I'll quickly bake some for you."
Surprisingly, she went and sat on my bed. I went straight to the kitchen and made some cupcakes I knew she would like.
I headed back to my room with some of it, and there she was, gulping down a bottle of strong liquor.
"Give me that, Lisa. You shouldn't be drinking. This is very strong for you."
Lisa was already palpitating. She touched my face and giggled. "You are so handsome. The best part... You taste so good."
"The sex was amazing that I craved more. Tell me, do you think I am pretty? You know, we could do some crazy things in here right now. See..." She staggered and bent down.
Fuck. My body was responding to her touch. I knew I needed to leave the room right away.
"Put it in already!" she almost screamed.
That was it. I dropped the cupcake and left the room. A bottle of water would help.
My phone started ringing, a call from Scar. "Yes... Okay, I will be right there."
******
"You can't keep on treating me like a prisoner!"
Scar finally found him, Bruno, my twin brother, though we are not identical. He was brought back to the pack, this time with stronger and tighter security.
"You can't keep on killing humans. It has been a whole four years, Bruno. When will you get a hold of yourself and realise this wasn't their fault?"
"It is their fault!" he snapped. "It's convenient for you to say because you didn't lose a child."
"I lost my child. My daughter! I warned her to stay far away from that human boy, but she was stupidly and foolishly in love, just like how my mate fell in love with a bloody human and left me."
This was beginning to sound like a broken record. Every Christmas, Bruno wanted to vent his anger on humans. I just let him talk.
"My enemy got hold of her on that stupid Christmas day because she was with that weak human boyfriend. They killed my baby. Those same humans took her mother away from me. Humans shouldn't exist."
There was no point in arguing with him. Scar came inside. "Alpha, your mum wants to speak with you."
"Okay, I will be with her shortly." Then back to Bruno. "Don't act funny. You know how much I hate repeating myself. You will be fine."
I left to go see my mum in the same space but in another building. She was sitting on the terrace, looking at nothing in particular.
"Your brother's anger is valid. I just don't know why you have a soft spot for those selfish beings. I hope my granddaughter doesn't get infected with their likes."
"Good evening to you too, Mum."
She let out a soft smile. "Twenty years since you lost Elena during childbirth. Haven't you mourned her enough? When will you feel that bond with another? This pack needs a powerful Luna, son."
If only she knew how my wolf has been acting up around human Lisa.
"I'll sleep here tonight. I'll leave tomorrow morning. I need to make sure your son won't make a silly move."
In reality, I didn't want to go back to drunk Lisa. I might end up repeating the same mistake.
*****
It was morning, and I went back to my house. Lisa was lying on my bed.
Her dress barely covers her. I could see her cleavage. I swallowed hard. I was already having a boner.
Her skin was spotless. Everything about her was perfect.
"Dad, what is going on here?"

She was the daughter they tried to erase. Now, she is the Queen they cannot escape.
In the Moon Shadow Pack, Audrey is a ghost in her own home. Born on a night of prophecy but appearing to be a "powerless" human, she has spent twenty-one years as a servant to her cruel stepmother and her pampered half-sister, Samantha. Her father, the Alpha, looks at her and sees only the death of his beloved wife-a stain on his legacy that needs to be removed.
When a marriage alliance is struck with the powerful and mysterious Silver Pack, Audrey's family concocts a deadly plan. They will veil Audrey and swap her for Samantha, sending her to marry the blind Alpha, Lucas. They believe the union will kill her instantly, leaving the path clear for Samantha to claim the crown once the "sacrifice" is complete.
But the prophecy had a secret.
The moment Lucas claims his bride, his sight is restored, and the power dormant in Audrey's blood erupts. She isn't a human, and she isn't a mere werewolf-she is the long-lost White Wolf, the True Luna of the Silver Pack.
As Audrey rises from the ashes of her betrayal, she is no longer the girl who cowers in the shadows. With a powerful Alpha at her side and an ancient magic in her veins, she is returning home. And this time, it won't be to serve-it will be to burn down the house that tried to destroy her.

"This isn't right..." I whispered.
But my stepbrothers wouldn't let me go.
"You're ours now," Sylver said quietly. "And that's not going to change."
My mother and I have been running for three years-from Eryndor Blackshade, the vampire cult leader obsessed with finding me.
Just when he finds us again, my mother makes a desperate move: she marries King Reid Thornevale, the most powerful Lycan in the Blood Hollow Pack.
But Reid comes with a dangerous secret-triplet hybrid sons, born of vampire and werewolf blood. They're ruthless, cursed... and now, my stepbrothers. From the moment Sylver, Cassian, and Rylan Thornevale lay eyes on me, something ancient stirs-twisted, forbidden, and hungry.
A fire that scorches morality and melts all reason. Our connection isn't just wrong. It's deadly. Because the Thornevale bloodline is cursed, descendants of Elder Varek, the first vampire–werewolf hybrid, were sealed away centuries ago.
The curse awakens under every Red Moon, turning them into monsters driven by bloodlust and desire. Now I'm caught in the middle. Between a cult that wants to sacrifice me... And stepbrothers who want to claim me. And I don't know which fate will destroy me first.

Isolde woke up in a freezing, ruined stone house with a splitting headache and only five percent of her life signs remaining.
Before she could even process the mechanical system voice in her head, a flood of violent memories slammed into her.
She had transmigrated into the body of a cruel noblewoman who mercilessly tortured her beastmen husbands with a barbed whip.
And right now, she was lying in a pool of her own blood, having been shoved against the stone floor by one of them.
Outside the rickety door, her husbands were coldly discussing her death.
"Just go in and finish her. One stab, and we're free."
"If she hit her head and died on her own, then it's an accident. We walk out of here as free males."
To test if she was faking her sudden amnesia, the snake beastman Dangelo even ground his heavy military boot into her injured hand, waiting for her to snap so he could legally end her.
She was poisoned, freezing, and entirely at the mercy of the men who deeply despised her.
She was bearing the deadly consequences of a monster she never was, with a red system warning of imminent death flashing in her mind.
But they didn't know the new Isolde had awakened a survival system and Life Magic.
She swore a blood oath to the Beast God to buy herself three months of time.
Then, she turned her sights to the dying wolf beastman chained in the shed, deciding to pull him back from hell to become her very first shield.

The Royal Pack’s glowing moonstone token rested in my palm.
Before I could even process the miracle of my rebirth, my half-sister Alyssa snatched it right out of my hand.
"This destiny is mine, little sister. Enjoy your cursed Alpha," she sneered.
My family easily caved to her whining. They forced me to take her place and marry Alpha Kaelen, a man they called an insane, crippled monster with three feral adopted sons. They laughed, expecting his beast to tear me apart before the honeymoon was over.
Alyssa thought she was stealing my crown. She didn't know she had just stolen my death sentence.
In my previous life, that exact token had made me the Alpha King’s Luna. But I was just a convenient, disposable meat shield for his true human mate. I died agonizingly, choking on poison meant for her, while the King didn't even blink.
I lowered my head, forcing my shoulders to tremble as if holding back terrified sobs. I played the part of the pathetic, wolfless Omega they all believed me to be.
But beneath my fake tears, I felt a profound relief.
I remembered the Kaelen from my past life. He wasn't a monster. He was powerful, agonizingly lonely, and slowly destroyed by a dark magic no one understood.
I wisely accepted the marriage pact and walked right into his freezing manor.
I know exactly who cursed him. And this time, I will save him, protect his boys, and make his entire pack mine.

Blood Moon – Story Description
Blood Moon is a dark, thrilling tale of forbidden attraction, supernatural rivalry, and the fine line between predator and prey. Set in the seemingly ordinary Silver Hollow College, the story unfolds in a world where vampires and werewolves secretly coexist alongside humans, each hiding their true powers while battling their own instincts, rival clans, and the pressures of legacy. In this shadowed world, every glance can hide a threat, every conversation can carry hidden meaning, and every full moon can unleash the beast within.
At the heart of the story are Catrine Nella, a powerful young vampire, and Edwardo Zee, a disciplined yet conflicted werewolf. Catrine is sharp, cunning, and deadly, raised under the constant pressure of her ambitious step-sister who insists she feed on human blood to grow stronger. Catrine's natural talents in both magic and combat make her a force to be reckoned with, yet she struggles with morality, identity, and her own desire for control. Edwardo, on the other hand, is torn between his instincts as a wolf and the manipulations of his ruthless step-brother, who demands that he become a killer to claim alpha status. Edwardo wants to be a true alpha, not through bloodshed, but by protecting others and leading with honor-an ambition that sets him apart from his family and makes him both a target and a misfit among his kind.
The story begins with a violent, electrifying encounter between Catrine and Edwardo in the forest during the full moon. Both are drawn by their own impulses-Catrine performing a vampire ritual, Edwardo struggling to control the wolf within-and the resulting clash is fierce, brutal, and unforgettable. This first meeting ignites a dangerous rivalry, with each recognizing the other's extraordinary abilities while also sensing something forbidden and magnetic between them. Though enemies by instinct and heritage, the connection they forge amidst conflict sets the stage for a tension-filled enemies-to-lovers narrative that drives the series forward.
As the story unfolds, Silver Hollow College becomes a battlefield not just of physical strength but of intellect, cunning, and emotional power. Catrine and Edwardo test one another constantly-through subtle glances in class, tense encounters in crowded hallways, and increasingly dangerous confrontations in the forest. Each battle pushes them further, revealing vulnerabilities and strengths, and slowly transforms their relationship from animosity into fascination, grudging respect, and eventually, desire. Amidst this, both characters are confronted with the pressures of their families. Catrine's step-sister threatens her with weakness if she does not feed on human blood, while Edwardo's step-brother pressures him toward ruthless dominance, creating a constant tension that challenges their morality and tests the limits of their powers.
At its core, Blood Moon is a story about choice and identity. It explores the struggle between instinct and conscience, power and restraint, hatred and attraction. It examines what it means to be strong-not just physically, but emotionally and morally-in a world where strength often comes at the cost of humanity. Through fast-paced action, supernatural intrigue, and the slow-burning, dangerous pull between Catrine and Edwardo, the story blends romance, suspense, and fantasy into a gripping narrative. It is a saga of blood and moonlight, of predators and secrets, of rivalry and passion, and of two young supernatural beings whose lives are forever intertwined by fate, desire, and the power of the Blood Moon.
