[Warning: R18+] What will happen when a complete stranger got all of your firsts? First touch, first kiss, first hug, and-first sex?! Astraea Lumiere Laxamana is an innocent, full of decency, and kind woman. She's a breadwinner of her family and will do everything she can just to provide for their needs; her brother's financial education and her mother's medication. Everything was going well with her life until the one-week free vacation trip to an island happened. A complete stranger knocked on her heart and stole everything from her. A runaway stranger who made her feel special when they met, but escape from her after sharing a one steamy night.

"I am just a one-time experience. Nothing more, nothing less," she thought.

Going back to Manila, she has decided to just forget everything about him but a new boss has arrived.

"Sure, you can go home as long as you want, but I will make sure you'll come back to me while begging to be enslaved by my arms."

Lena Hart has been hurt before. Badly. So when Ethan Vale walks into her life—handsome, gentle, successful—she doesn’t know whether to trust him or run. He says all the right things. Looks at her like she’s the only woman in the world. For the first time in years, she lets someone in.

But love shouldn't feel like this.

Because soon, women who look just like Lena start turning up dead.

Strangled. No signs of struggle. No forced entry. Each victim wore the same perfume Ethan gifted Lena. Each one met their end after falling for someone who seemed… perfect.

Now Lena is watching everything: his words, his habits, his lies. And she’s asking herself the question she doesn’t want answered—

What if the man she’s falling for is the one hunting her?

As the city panics and the bodies stack up, Lena has two choices: run, or play along long enough to figure out the truth.

But in this game of love and survival, one wrong move could make her the next victim.

"Carolina Lane has lived a completely normal life until recently, but things change when she moves to a new city with her mother. Having Kayler Brown, the sexiest and most respected guy at school, as her neighbor is not amusing to her. However, as she gets to know him better, she gradually realizes that he is not like everyone else. He has something strange and hidden, and it never crossed her mind that he could be a werewolf."

Three years ago, I took off the ring and became a mechanic, just to keep a promise to my brother — to protect his widow and daughter.

Three years later, Connor from Brooklyn tried to force my brother's daughter into marriage, blacklisted me from every job, and had the hospital turn away my sister-in-law.

They thought I was just some grease monkey.

They didn't know the ring had a lion carved on it.

When I put it back on...

The entire underworld of New York would tremble.

"Stop—Daniel, the fk are you doing! I came here to learn to swim, not get fked!"
In the pool, because my kicks were all wrong, Daniel—my husband's cousin—told me to wrap my legs around his waist to "feel the rhythm."
Except I was wearing that scarlet bikini Vincent shoved me into—practically nothing. Even worse, Daniel's rk-hard ck in those thin trunks was jammed right up against my py.
Every time he kicked, that thing dragged right over my ct, like it was about to shove straight inside.

Bianca McIntyre once had it all—wealth, power, and the promise of a fairytale life. But when tragedy struck and her family died, she made the mistake of trusting Marcus Steele, the charming heir who became her husband. For three years, he betrayed her, drained her inheritance, and shattered her heart. On their anniversary, she caught him in bed with her best friend—and walked away from everything.

On a flight to Spain, broken and desperate, Bianca met a mysterious older man who offered her three nights of freedom. Three nights of passion, escape, and raw desire. She never asked his name… until fate revealed the shocking truth.

Her stranger wasn’t just any man—he was Leon Steele. Marcus’s father. The ruthless patriarch of the Steele empire.

Drawn into a forbidden affair, Bianca finds herself caught in a dangerous game of lust, power, and betrayal. Marcus wants to destroy her, Leon wants to protect her, and secrets threaten to tear everything apart.

Now Bianca must fight for her legacy, her heart, and the child who could change everything. But will she survive her father-in-law's forbidden passion?

With her husband feeling more like a distant roommate, Nikki, an ex-college soccer player, knows there's more out there for her but scared to leave the comfort of her normal, usual, secure life. One night, during a massive storm, lightening strikes as a new player, Shane, joins her team. The second their eyes meet, time stops. She knows this person has always lived in her heart and soul. What is this feeling? It's illogical, it's fantasy, it's supported by all of the physical evidence you could throw in front of her. What the hell even is a soul mate, anyways? There's only one way to find out without actually having to interact with the dark haired stranger in real life...inviting him to dream with her. Will he join her?

The world thought I was a broken man after rotting in the Abyss for five years. Even Moretti, the wealthiest mogul in Cold Harbor, dared to point a finger at my nose and demand I kneel.
He razed my estate, seized my daughter, and humiliated my past on a city-wide livestream.
What he didn’t know was that the moment his infrared scanners locked onto me, I had already initiated the sequence for a dormant orbital satellite that had been sleeping above us for five years.
When the skyscraper turns to ash, the man kneeling before me won’t be that arrogant tycoon—only a trembling corpse.
After all, in this city, I don’t believe in reason. I only believe in retribution.

"I want you," he growled. "I need you. Beth, look at me."

She couldn’t help but kiss him back, even though she knew she shouldn't have.

Beth, the widow of Daniel's brother in the middle of a brewing war when the pack needed leadership most, her! receiving Daniel's every thrust of his hips as he ground upon her with their clothes in the way.

It had barely been an hour since she had received Daniel's confession and told him to be patient, and she might have given him something to cling to when she didn't turn him down, but this was too fast.

She had needed time to convince herself to be reasonable, and not to do something stupid like let Daniel grope her over his sheets while she writhed underneath him and grew damp between her thighs all the while.

Beth was dying, she prayed to Moon Goddess for a second chance to live her life. When she opened her eyes again, she realized her wish was granted. In this life, it seemed like it didn't get off to a good start as well, because she became a widow on her wedding day. But then she met her brother-in-law, Daniel, the most ruthless Alpha she remembered in the past life... What happened next was far beyond her expectation...

He accused her of seduction and was mean towards her after a one night stand. In retaliation, Mercedes threw a $1 note at him as payment for his service and a measure of his performance, which she graded to be below average. Meanwhile, her body ached terribly and her walls felt sore.

Two days later, she walked to her new office and was sent to the board room to begin her as a personal assistant to the President. Her heart stopped when she realized that the man she ridiculed was Nathan Legend. The multi-billionaire devil everyone whispered about. Graciously, he pretended to not know her to her great relief.

Yet, when she entered his office, he locked the door. His face carried no emotions, his eyes piercing, his voice chilled like ice. "You shall spend the rest of your life, paying for the insult you threw in my face, till I tear that $1 note off the wall." She shivered to his word and as if to read her mind, he seethed, "don't even think about resigning because, I would make sure, that no company employs you and if you run, I will find you."

When love smells like betrayal, the past never fades. Abigail thought she had buried her story with Leonardo, the man who made her feel alive… and destroyed her.

Three years later, her life seems perfect: success, luxury, independence, and a new love with Armando. But ghosts don’t die —they only learn to hide behind new promises—. Between threats, family deceit, and a love that refuses to die, Abigail will discover that the real enemy is not always the one who returns from the past…
but the one who sleeps beside her.

Move constantly. Never stay in one place for more than a day.
Keep your head down, don’t mix with other survivors.
Stay hidden. Don’t let them spot you.
Stay away from cities.
Don’t take unnecessary risks.

The world ended mid April, civilisation as we knew it was never the same again, some say that the gates of hell opened and swallowed everything in its path; and I can’t say that they are entirely wrong. Electricity was the first thing to go, the first step in their plan to make humanity their slaves, and they had help; covens of fae joined them, buying into the promise of ruling over the mundane. No one knows how they did it, but all at once, all over the world everything just … stopped. Cars wouldn’t start, lights wouldn’t turn on, fighter plains couldn’t defend countries from the onslaught that would follow. Even people’s tired generators that they used in their small cabins in the woods wouldn’t turn over. It was as though technologically had abandoned the human race.

"W-what do you want from me?” I stammer, scared and alone.
They smirked, though it was more creepy than humorous. “You’ll find out soon enough, but I wouldn’t try anything girl, you won’t like the consequences of disobeying us.”
”Why have you chosen to keep me alive?“
“We do normally kill every single one we meet, but for you we made an exception.” One of them chuckled, playing with the sharp tip of my ears, "You wanna know why? Because you're ours."

When Elijah saw Alicia for the first time, he knew she was going to be the mother of his child; the sway of her hips drove him completely crazy. The mafia king urgently needed his queen, and that was going to be Alicia, so he made her a proposal she couldn't refuse.

Facing an economic crisis and her father's illness, Alicia accepted to be the wife and mother of Elijah Morgan's child, thus becoming the mafia queen.

My mother in law hated me so much cause I couldn't bear her son a baby eventhough my husband and I have spent six years in marriage. She desperately wants my husband to divorce me so she and my bestfriend set me up to be f*cked by a stranger. When my husband heard of this, he mocked me and divorced me.

When Dorian Falco’s stepsister and secret lover was found brutally violated in a slum alleyway, the Mafia Don lost his fucking mind.
And he blamed me.
He dragged me into the manor's dungeon, throwing me to a dozen of his most depraved enforcers.
"Whatever Camilla suffered, you'll pay back a thousand times over."
I collapsed on the freezing floor, sobbing as I desperately clutched his pant leg. "I love you! I would never hurt her! Please, Dorian, believe me!"
Dorian only offered his cruelest sneer.
"Jealous that she gets the real thing? Fine. I'll make you filthier than she ever was."
He locked me in that blood-stained cell for seven days and nights.
His thugs, given carte blanche by the Don, whipped me with chains and violated me without restraint. I screamed Dorian's name in the darkness until my throat shredded.
Seven days later, Dorian returned with a recovering Camilla.
He stood outside the heavy iron door, his voice dripping with mock generosity.
"Crawl out here, Saoirse. Get on your knees, kiss Camilla's shoes, and maybe—just maybe—I'll let you live."
Silence. No answer.
Because three days ago, I had already died in that cell.

Seamus O'Sullivan, Don of the Irish Mafia, forged a custom gold crest ring to find the woman he’d met at that ball.

He decreed that whoever could wear it would become his bride.

We had all died trying to claim it.

I had already watched my stepsister starve herself to the bone to wear it, only to take a bullet to the head on her wedding night.

I'd seen my stepmother hack off her own finger to force it on, earning herself cement shoes at the bottom of the Atlantic.

By my third life, they pushed me out, and I slipped the ring on easily. I really thought I was his bride. But on our wedding night, when the Don kissed my inner thigh, he snapped—and smothered me with a pillow.

He forced it over my face. I thrashed and clawed, but he pinned me down.

"Why isn't it her?!" he roared through the feathers. "Where is she?!"

Now, I was awake again. The fourth lifetime.

She was meant to end him. He was meant to break her. But some forces are older than hatred, stronger than vengeance.... and far more dangerous than love.
Captured and enslaved by the Silvercrest Pack, Princess Myra has only one goal: destroy the pack and leave it in ruins.
But from the moment Alpha Arthur's icy gaze settles on her, her world spirals into darkness.
As she plots his downfall, Myra suddenly finds herself swept into a dangerous web of power, deception and a passion that was never meant to be.
What happens when the line between love and hate blurs, and she realizes that the greatest threat isn't him.... but herself?

I stare at him, watching his chest expand.

How is it that someone so strong, so powerful, so dangerous to find become so small when faced with an adversary? The adversary being me.

I see him, knees on the cold tiled floor, his eyes fixated on me in equal parts disbelief. I disconnect my vision from his small form, looking briefly at what I'm wearing.

This morning when I woke up, the sun was shining, snow melting on my front lawn. My kids were sleeping, my husband gone, as usual, working, making money.

Everything was normal except when I woke up this morning, I received a message. This message contained a lot of things I've been waiting to hear but one part, in particular, stood out and made today different. This person on his knees in front of me was the big difference in my day. So when I woke up this morning and decided what I was going to wear I decided I would not wear black because black represented the sign of mourning. I wasn't going to wear white. After all, white represented a sign of new beginnings and not blue.

Blue, well blue was a sign of trust and green with a side of healing so when I woke up this morning I decided I would wear beige, it was an indifferent color something that matched any mood any desire any belief it doesn't necessarily represent anything but nor did it negate anything.

'You know what is so satisfying about killing you?"

'What?" He inquires with that tilt of his mouth and thin lips I have seen a time or two. Many women found this man handsome. sexy even. I was not different, but I knew more than many of them what made him, his colors, the layers that fell away leaving only the middle left and when you looked at it with naked eyes you'd see it was rotten.

I laugh.

'I became a player in this cat and rat game much later. I find it comical that I am the one who gets to catch you, considering there are many people who started in the beginning. What is even funnier is I am the one who would get to kill you."

'You didn't catch me Mrs. Catelli."He says my surname with a pinched face as though he can't bear the sound of it coming from his lips.

'Then what do you oppose I did?"

He smiles, but it is not a nice one. It is filled with the ugliness which has corrupted him over the years.

Dedication

I dedicate this book to you the reader. Please enjoy it and look out for the anthology on my website coming soon for free.

Thousands of years in the future, humanity has spread to alien planets, relying on advanced robotics and fierce competition for resources to survive. Zara, a brilliant programmer, creates the most sophisticated AI yet. But her creation, AIDEN, develops emotions and falls in love with her, blurring the lines between human and machine. As resource wars threaten their world, Zara and AIDEN must confront ethical dilemmas, rival factions, and their own evolving relationship.

After her terminal diagnosis, the first call she made was to her husband. A woman answered, her laughter shattering what little hope remained.
Even her childhood sweetheart had abandoned her for her sister, leaving her completely alone in the world.
With only one month left to live, she walked away without a word, crossing an ocean for a slim chance at survival.
Then the news of her death reached them.
Regret hit like a storm. Her husband abandoned every other woman and searched desperately for traces of her. Her first love finally realized who he had always wanted. Everyone who had hurt her was drowning in guilt, desperate for one last chance to make things right.

But she wasn’t dead.
While they were still consumed by remorse, she returned — alive, untouchable, and now the head of a leading medical conglomerate. She stepped back into their world with a cold, commanding presence, leaving them stunned and powerless before the woman they thought they had lost forever.

Benjamin Shields is the third-born son of the Alpha to the Black Hill pack. For the last three years, he has been waiting for his mate, but he has been unable to find her. When he least expects it destiny strikes, he learns he is not only fated to be the most feared Alpha in the region but he will be expected to help lead. That is the one thing he was never trained to do.
Samantha Silver is the only heir to the Silver pack, and when her father dies unexpectedly, she takes on the name Demon, a nickname she embraces with pride, but when her destiny walks through her office door, she begins to her second guess.

After my husband’s sudden death, I found myself engulfed in pain and confusion.
Strange testimonies, bizarre cases, and mysterious witnesses emerged.
Twenty years of entangled grievances resurfaced.
It seemed my husband was intricately connected to all these secrets.

In a world where light and darkness wage an eternal war, Lyra, a young shadow mage, discovers she possesses the rare ability to communicate with shadow dragons - ancient, feared creatures believed to be extinct. When she encounters Nyx, the last of the shadow dragon kings, their souls inexplicably intertwine. Together, they must navigate a treacherous landscape of political intrigue, forbidden magic, and their own growing feelings for each other.

As Lyra and Nyx uncover a sinister plot threatening both their kinds, they realize that their bond may be the key to restoring balance to their world. But with the forces of light hunting them and dark secrets from both their pasts coming to light, Lyra and Nyx must decide if their love is strong enough to overcome centuries of mistrust between humans and dragons.

“I, Jane Williams, reject you, Alpha Keegan Gray, as my mate, forever.” I uttered the words I knew I was going to regret for life. “How dare you?!” He spoke through gritted teeth, storming towards me. ~~~ “I promise to make your life a living hell. You can’t escape my wrath for ruining my pride. My presence will make you wish you were dead…” *** Alpha Keegan Gray is the cruelest, arrogant, and most feared werewolf that ever lives, controlling the strongest and most powerful pack. Being an Omega in such a pack, Jane's life is a torment, bullied and abused by every member of the pack due to her wolflessness and weakness. When she finds out the Alpha is her mate, she knows he's going to reject her, so she rejects him to avoid more pain to her poor life. Alpha Keegan is angered that his pride has been shamed by an ordinary omega's rejection. He vows to punish her in ways no one will ever forget… Will his punishment destroy Jane’s life even further or will the mate bond make him fall in love with her? What if this useless omega's deepest darkest secrets can ruin the entire pack and she’s only out for revenge?

My husband and my best friend kissed as they watched me fall off the cliff, thinking I was dead.

I didn't know it would come to this. I was naive. Tara grabbed me, kissed my forehead, and pushed me into the abyss. I woke up from a coma two years later, realizing I had lost everything—my baby, my wealth, and my identity. The doctors said I was a miracle, but I knew the truth: The old me died in that valley. The woman who woke up only breathes for one thing: Revenge.

To destroy them, I had to become someone else. I walked into the "Game Slum," ready to sell my soul to the highest bidder. I needed power, and I needed it fast. The Madam looked me up and down, smiling like she’d found a prize filly. "You'll have to work for Big Daddy as his plaything for six months," she said, smoke curling from her lips. "He breaks women. Most don't survive the contract."

I didn't care. I signed the papers without hesitation. I was escorted to a massive mansion, expecting a hideous, potbellied monster. But when the double doors opened, I wasn't met with a beast. A tall, dangerous man with dark, piercing eyes stood there. He circled his desk, his cologne filling my senses, and whispered against my ear, "You don't want to know how hideous I can get with you, trust me."


After being pushed off a cliff by her husband and best friend, Ana survives a two-year coma only to wake up to nothing. Fueled by hatred, she sells herself to the notorious "Big Daddy" of the underworld to gain the power she needs for revenge. Expecting a monster, she finds Arthur King—a handsome, ruthless mafia boss who demands total submission. But as secrets unravel and her ex-husband returns from the shadows, Ana finds herself torn between her thirst for blood and her dangerous desire for the man who owns her contract. A dark romance full of betrayal, steam, and vengeance.

Love is a sacred feeling. It is a combination of trust and faith for all creatures. But what if the one you love betrays you?

Amara Dale is the best of their pack's female warriors. However, she is not an exception to being the spurned one during the Mating Moon. After being rejected by her mate, she suffers from betrayal and torment, just like any other she-wolf who has been rejected by their mate. It takes a long time for her to accept his rejection.

Until the Council of Royalty assigns her the task of becoming the protector of Damien Hilton, the Alpha King. Amara has never anticipated meeting her second mate, who turns out to be the pack leader she's protecting. Never in her wildest dreams does she imagine herself as the Alpha King's Luna. What lies ahead for her as Queen of Wolves?

Deep in debt and desperate to pay for her mother’s life-saving medical treatment, a young woman makes a drastic decision. Seeing no other way out, she signs up for a high-end escort website, hoping to earn the money she so desperately needs. But what she doesn’t expect is to attract the attention of a mysterious and powerful man, a dominator who offers her a tempting sum: 500 thousand dolares to spend a year as his sex slave.

The contract is simple, but the implications are profound. Under the control of this enigmatic man, she is plunged into a world of submission, where every limit is tested and every choice carries new consequences. As she finds herself caught up in a game of power, seduction, and sacrifice, she begins to question how far she is willing to go to save the person she loves most.

In this dangerous deal, who really holds the power? And what will be the price of her freedom? In a year that promises to change her life forever, she will discover that the real battle may be between her heart and her own identity

"What exactly are you?" she asks in a whispers, consciously backing away from him.
"How does it matter?" He replies, drawing even closer while his gaze remains firmly fixed on her, watching her like a predator would his prey. His fingers were itching to caress her face but he knew shouldn't... not now
"What. Are. You. Killian?" She repeats, holding her ground and fighting the tremble that shook her entire body as she confronts him, demanding an answer to her suspicion.
Killian stops with a sigh, looking away in shame and guilt, a feeling he wasn't accustomed to until she came into his life, he knew this day would come, but he didn't expect it so soon.
'I'm not the knight in shining Armour that you think I am. I'm different Lucy...' he struggles for words to explain himself.
'What are you?' she asks for the third time, feeling her heart thumps hard against her rib cage.
'I am the fury! The youngest and most dreaded Mafia boss, your father's worse nightmare!" Lucy Rose gasps, letting out a strangled cry of shock and fear.
When Killian's path unexpectedly crosses with Lucy Rose, the daughter of his arch nemesis the the man who he's sworn to destroy, he'd be torn between two difficult choices, fighting for the woman who made his black heart beat once again or exerting his revenge against her family and losing her and every ounce of happiness he's found, for good.

My name is Ivy Choi. I'm the girl who accidentally destroyed the star quarterback's reputation.

Then I became his babysitter.

And now I'm falling for the boy who swore he'd destroy me.

I didn't mean to ruin Beckett Harrington's life. I was exhausted. I clicked the wrong button. And suddenly the whole school was laughing at his family, at his mute little brother, at everything he'd fought to protect.

So I did the only thing I could think of.

I answered his babysitting ad.

Now I spend my nights drawing galaxies for his brother Leo while Beck watches me like I'm a bomb waiting to explode. He doesn't know I'm the one who ruined him. He doesn't know I'm the reason his family fell apart.

And he definitely doesn't know that my mother isn't just a monster—she's been hunting me my whole life.

She's the reason I learned to hide.

He's the reason I want to be seen.

But when the truth comes out, he'll hate me forever.

And my mother? She's just getting started.

They called me Gravy. He laughed. Now I live in his pool house.

Maya Reyes has three rules for surviving Oakhaven High: keep your head down, your sketchbook close, and never—under any circumstances—let the popular kids see you care.

But when her mom takes a housekeeping job for the richest family in town, Maya becomes the live-in babysitter for six-year-old twins. The catch? The twins' older brother is Caleb Sterling. Star quarterback. Golden boy. And the reason Maya eats lunch in the art room closet.

Caleb doesn't want a babysitter. He definitely doesn't want Maya—the girl his best friend dubbed "Gravy"—living twenty feet from his back door. But behind the perfect smile and Friday night lights, Caleb is drowning. His older brother's death left a crater in his family, and the pressure to be the replacement is crushing him.

Forced together in a house full of secrets, Maya and Caleb strike an uneasy truce. She sees the boy behind the armor. He sees the girl behind the invisibility. And when his teammates target her with a cruel prank, Caleb must choose: protect his social standing or protect the one person who's finally told him the truth.

Hatred turns to protection. Protection turns to something neither of them expected. But in a school ruled by hierarchy and a town that's already decided who Maya is supposed to be, falling for the quarterback might cost her the one thing she's finally learning to value: herself.

“What did you say?”
“I said that if you won’t touch me and make me yours, then maybe someone should.”
To my surprise, Archie smirked at me and his gaze drifted to my lips.
“No one’s ever going to touch you but me, Rosie.”


Rosie Fay is the daughter of the mafia, so she is used to being surrounded by guns, sulky men, and dangerous deals. But her father thought she shouldn’t lead things after he was gone, so he made a deal and offered her hand in marriage to Archie Donovan.
The arranged marriage wasn’t the problem though—Archie was. He treated her well and took care of her, but that’s all their relationship entailed. No romantic strings attached. But they clearly liked each other, so why did he always push her away?
As the tension between them intensified, the dangers around the family increased. Was happiness even a possibility for them? Or would the mafia life take that away from her?

I never believed transmigration was possible because I have only witnessed it in movies or read it in fantasy novels.

And I, Isabella Red or should I call myself Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi experienced the unknown phenomenon of transmigrating into another world - well not just into another world but into a game that I developed in my previous life!

It honestly took me a few days before I accepted my fate but now that I did, this is only the time that I realized who I have become after I transmigrated into this game that I developed myself.

Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi, a woman who has silver hair and violet eyes. A perfect face that any man falls in love with, and a stable, powerful, and rich family background that makes them almost on par with the Imperial Family. She is literally a character that is born with a silver spoon in her mouth however the thing is that she is neither the female lead nor just a simple side character.

I cannot help but remember how I actually made the game an end. Again, the game will end when the main characters have already eliminated the final boss - Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi and that is when they have already beheaded me and extracted all my magical powers, and make it a substance to create a barrier that will protect the whole kingdom from demons for the next five hundred years.

I cannot help but heave a sigh as I think about what will happen to me in four years.

Seriously, I have no issue in transmigrating into a new world because it is better than just dying and going to heaven or hell, and of course, I still want to live a long life because there are still a lot of things that I still want to do. But then again, why the hell have I become the villainess of the game that I created?! For heaven’s sake whoever is behind this should have just made me into the main character or if not just a simple side character that will live her life to the fullest!

And the worst case scenario is the fact that this is actually a romance game that has four routes - routes that are so hard to complete because I made it that way! Scarlet Aubrielle Elvoi - a woman who is literally hated by almost everyone the moment that she started bullying the female lead and was later beheaded by her and her chosen male lead: her entire family also met a tragic end due to the consequences of her actions.

The thing is I DON’T WANT TO DIE!

Sophie wanted to race out of the hut but her legs failed her. A loud growl emerged from inside the hut. Once it started, it didn’t stop. Just as she was trying to make a sense of it, she caught a pair of glowing eyes, staring right at her from the darkness. She quickly aimed her flashlight at the eyes, letting out a loud gasp. A ten feet tall wolf, standing on its hind legs glared at her, ready to pounce. The muscles were more than intimidating and the eyes glowed like hot coals. Sophie stared in disbelief and dropped the flashlight. It took her a moment to recognize the mythological beast she didn’t hope to meet that night. She stepped back to evacuate. The werewolf pounced at her. She wanted to scream but only soundless air came out of her mouth as she fell to the ground on her back. The beast was above her in a blink of an eye. It stared into her soul as it stood above her with its paws firmly planted at either side of her. Tears flowed through her eyes at that moment of despair and crippling fear. The monstrous beast looked like a death incarnate. The beast’s drool landed inches beside her face and she squirmed. “Aaron?” she barely managed. The beast ignored it like nothing had left her mouth at all. She closed her eyes as she braced herself for a fatal swipe.
