On the eve of her twenty-first birthday, Lowena Morningstar must choose: does she become Kieran's Luna? Kage's wife of darkness? Caspian's fairy queen? To lead the coven of witches? So many choices, can she only make one? Will her fate be decided for her?

Kage and Caspian scoffed, refusing to answer. Instead, they folded their arms over their chests, acting like sad schoolboys. "Fine, you stay here; I'll walk back alone," Lowena sighed over their antics. Kage and Caspian shook their heads, pacing between each other and watching Lowena walk away. At the same time, they both rushed after her, escorting her back to the party. After an awkward, short walk, they were all surrounded by happily drunk people. Ethica boldly approached the three of them, firmly holding her chalice. Lowena's cheeks blushed red, remembering the kiss they shared the night before. "Lowena, there you are," Ethica greete. "King, Caspian, King Kage." Both dropped their jaws in awe as if in the presence of royalty of an even higher status than their own. Ethica took advant
Lowena stomped down the stairs, out the double doors, and into the celebration. At this point, she didn't want anything to do with either of them. Now wasn't the time for her to act rationally; it was time she stepped out of her shell. The loud drums echoed in her mind as she approached one of the bonfires. The heat from the flames wasn't scorching but relaxing, controlled even. "There you are," a seductive young woman whispered in Lowena's ear. Lowena turned, eyes widening in surprise to see the two women she had danced with the previous night before her once more, offering the bat chalice. She gladly accepted, drinking a mouthful of the thick copper liquid. It warmed every inch as it crept down her stomach. Lowena licked her lips, hungry, before looking back at both the girls. "What are your names?" Lowena asked. "Celeste," the shorter woman introduced. "Lucinda," the taller, slender one greeted. "I'm Lowena." The girls didn't respond but drank from the chalic
Lowena walked back with Caspian, the rain easing til the sun came out to play. "It's amazing how you can do that," she admired. "It is mother nature; us fairies are bound to her in one way or another. Many are known to you as mythical creatures, such as the phoenix, griffins, and sirens. You may have seen them at the celebration last night," he explained. Lowena's cheeks blushed, and she confirmed, "There were these two women I first met; they looked almost like bats." "Those are the vampires. They have the most allure to them; they are the most predatorial. Their beauty enchants you, draws you in under their spell, and makes killing easy. They release a venom, similar to snakes than bats, that relaxes the prey, a euphoric opium if you will. "Wow," she hushed, "And the girls in the bird-like costumes? The ones that had scales?" Caspian chuckled, astonished by her curiosity, "You have your serpents, nymphs, mermaids. All can be fairies or witches; it depends on whether th
When Eli left, Aiyana entered Lowena's room and ran to her. "Are you okay?' she asked. Lowena was trembling, terrified, "W-w-werwolf?" Aiyana knelt in front of the traumatized Lowena; the look of shock on her face said it all. "Did you think it was a lie? You saw all different beings yesterday." "I thought I was hallucinating from something in the drinks," Lowena mumbled. "Are you okay? Your neck?! What happened?!" Aiyana rushed, grabbing the first aid from Kieran's nightstand and helping Lowena clean herself up. "He bit me," Lowena winced from the pain. Aiyana froze, "What?" "Eli bit me," Lowena repeated. Aiyana eased back, "Lowena, do you know what this means?" Lowena shook her head in confusion. "You don't know anything," Aiyana huffed while cleaning Lowena's wound. "He marked you as his own." "His own? I thought I was meant to be Kieran's Luna," Lowena reminded. Aiyana shook her head, wiping the blood from Lowena's neck, "Not anymore. He tells the b
"Good morning," Kieran greeted with a tray of food. It wasn't a good morning for Lowena, though. She wasn't burning up like last night, but her body was still physically frustrated. Something she felt she needed deep within her, something different, but she couldn't pinpoint what. She removed her bikini and put on one of Kieran's oversized shirts to sleep in. The summer heat wasn't helping calm her nerves either. "Why are you bringing me food?" Lowena defiantly folded her arms across her chest. Kieran ran his free hand through his hair before placing the tray on the bed. "Eli wanted me to apologize." "Apologize for what?" she sneered. Kieran approached her, causing her cheeks to blush and look away from his dominating gaze. She remained still on the bed. "You know what." His voice was deep and seductive, making it more difficult for Lowena. "Or do I need to remind you?" She bit her lower lip, still unable to look him in the eye as he slowly moved his hand betwee
"Lowena? Lowena?" Eli rolled Lowena on her back, exposing her red, flushed cheeks and damp chest spilling from her top. "Did he do something?" he asked. "No," she denied, "I just feel strange." Another silent tear fell down her cheek. She felt afraid, nervous, and excited all at once. She had never experienced so many uncontrollable emotions. "It'll stop; the pheromones are leaving," Eli hushed while caressing her clammy cheek. Instinct caused Lowena to lean into his touch, "Everything is on fire." Lowena sat up, eyes glossy, looking at Eli for comfort. "It'll stop," Eli said, pressing his forehead to hers, his hand still holding her cheek. "Just breathe, Lowena." "Mmm," she whimpered once more, the heat within her body overwhelming her. Lowena grabbed his hand from her cheek and moved it to her breasts. "They're on fire!" she cried and moved his hand lower, "And here." When his hand was near her vagina, he locked it into place, "Lowena, what are
Cade seized Lowena's wrist, pulling her away from Derrick, "You know better, dead man." "Lowena asked for a drink," Derrick chuckled, "I couldn't tell the girl no." Cade growls like a wolf, baring his teeth like one. "Now, boys," Eli interrupted, "Let's not disturb this lovely night." Cade looked at Lowena, his hand still firmly on her wrist, "Come drink with your kind." Before Lowena could respond, Cade adjusted his hand so both their fingers interlocked and pulled her to a bonfire far from Derrick. Cade's grip wasn't as tender and gentle as before; now, it was firm and dominant. Lowena felt she had no choice but to follow. "Why did you call him a dead man?" Lowena questioned. "Lowena!" Cade sighed frustratedly, passionately grabbing Lowena before looking back down at her. "You need to start believing in what you are." Cade started walking again with a frustrated growl. Lowena bit her lower lip as they approached Aiyana. Aiyana's eyes widened at the sight of their ha
Eli pulled Lowena from the two girls. "What are you doing?" Lowena looked back, and the two girls stood there with their arms folded, their faces expressions of annoyance. "I was just dancing," Lowena defended. "Just dancing?" Eli chuckled, "Lowena, they're vampires." Lowena looked back at the girls. Her mouth opened, but no sound came out. The two girls rolled their eyes and began seductively dancing with one another once more. "They have an allure about them; we all do; it's intoxicating even to us," Eli explained. "You expect me to believe this?" she questioned. Eli gently guided her to the next group of people dancing more effortlessly, fair-like, and beautiful. One girl had emerald green scaly skin with yellow cat-like eyes, and another looked like the waves of the water, different shades of blue and white from her dress to her hair. "Nymphs," Eli explained, "They all have different strengths. Like Bashira, she's a snake type; Allura, she controls water elements
"W-what's going on?" Lowena stammered. "We need to get you ready for tonight's celebration!" Aiyana eagerly helped Lowena get dressed. "This looks ridiculous," Lowena chuckled. "A fox-fur bikini with this weird wolf headdress?" "It's tradition," Aiyana reminded. "I love yours. The midnight black fur matches your hair; it's stunning," Lowena gawked. "It's a red wolf fur you're wearing, not a fox," Aiyana corrected. "Really?" Lowena huffed, "I've never seen a red wolf." "They are rare and need to be celebrated," Aiyana said while finishing Lowena's makeup. "I look like some tribal woman," I groaned. "It's-" "Tradition," Lowena said in unison with Aiyana. "I know," she sighed. "I still don't believe in any of this, but if this is what he needs, then so be it." "You still don't believe?" Aiyana shivered. "How? None of them have shown you yet?" "Shown me what?" Lowena asked. "Wow, you look so much like your mother," Eli commented, standing in the doorway. Lowe
When Lowena got off the private jet, the fresh Irish air filled her lungs as she walked over to the only car at the airport, an antique truck, where a young man, not much older than her, was waiting. "Lowena? Lowena Morningstar?" the young man asked, his voice more profound for the appearance of his age. "Y-yes?" she hesitated. "Get in," he commanded. "Excuse me-" "I'm a friend of your uncle's," he interrupted. "I've lived with and worked for him for a long time." "How long?" Lowena questioned. "You don't trust me?" he winked. She briefly glanced at him. He was handsome. His short, wavy locks of hair fell effortlessly around his sharp, well-chiseled face, and his small amount of facial hair prevented him from looking as young as he was. When he exited the truck and took my luggage from my grasp, he towered over her; he had to be well over six feet, closer to seven. "What's my Uncle's name?" she interrogated, folding her arms. "Eli," he bluntly replied. Silentl...
