Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood in the Moonlit Meadow's poorly lit area surrounded by tall trees. The moon was low in the night sky, giving everything an eerie silver glow. He could hear the pack howling in the distance. Their sounds carried through the night, taking him back to the world he used to live in.Amelia stood next to him with her eyes on the moon and her face blank. Since the first time they met, she had been a riddle. As the truth about her started to come out, Ethan couldn't help but feel both afraid and interested."Amelia," he said in a shaky voice, "you need to be honest with me. Who exactly are you?"She looked at him, and the moonlight made her eyes shine. "I told you, Ethan, that I'm just another person who, like you, found peace in the Moonlit Meadow."Ethan's tolerance was running out. "Amelia, don't play games with me. I've been through enough already."Amelia sighed and slouched her shoulders. "Fine," she finally said, giving up. "Amelia Blackwood is
Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood in the poorly lit room, which smelled like old books and old information. Amelia held an open leather-bound book in front of her, and the glowing lighting could be seen in her eyes. Symbols that were difficult to understand danced across the pages."Amelia, what's this place?" Ethan asked, but he barely spoke above a whisper, as if he didn't want to wake up the secrets that were sleeping.She gave him a quick look and a smile that didn't say much. "This, Ethan, is the Moonlit Meadow's secret library. It has the secret information and the facts that the Moon Goddess hid from her children."Ethan was as interested as a fever. He kept asking, "What truths?"Amelia ran her finger over the words with a light but careful touch. She began in a low, respectful tone, "The truth about fated mates and the Moon Goddess herself." "The truth that not all destinies are written in the stars and that some are made by the choices we make."Ethan's heart beat f
Ethan stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow, where the moon's light cast a ghostly glow over the area. He had just finished telling Amelia about his past, Gabriel, and how his heart had been broken by being turned down. Amelia listened with her eyes filled with understanding and her hand on his arm."I can't believe he did that to you," she told him, her words calming his hurt feelings.Ethan nodded and looked away. "It hurt like nothing else I've ever been through. But I also know that people can change and that love can sometimes get through even the worst times."Amelia's eyes were full of both happiness and sadness. "Ethan, love is a powerful thing. But it's also hard to do. Sometimes, in order to find our real path, we have to make decisions that break our hearts.As they talked about this moment of understanding, a noise in the nearby woods cut them off. Ethan's wolf reflexes kicked in, and he tensed up, his senses on high alert.Gabriel came out of the shadows, his face a mix
As Ethan ran through the thick woods, his heart was racing and he was gasping for air. Behind him, he could hear the pack's angry growls, a persistent chase that made him feel like it would swallow him whole."Amelia!" he yelled in a desperate tone. He had to find her and tell her about the danger that was coming. She knew a truth that could make everything different.He ran into a clearing lit by the moon and looked around wildly for her. And there she was, standing at the edge of a small lake that sparkled, her long hair catching the silvery light."Amelia!" he yelled again, and as he ran toward her, relief washed over him.She turned around to face him, and her face showed both surprise and worry. "What's going on, Ethan?""There's no time to explain," he gasped as he walked over to her. "We need to leave. Now."Before she could answer, the pack of wild, growling wolves rushed into the open like a wall. Gabriel was in the front, and his dangerously focused eyes were on Ethan."Etha
Ethan stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow. This was where he had started his trip, and it was also where it might end. The full moon hung heavy in the night sky, giving the clearing a light that seemed to come from another world. It was a good setting for the emotional fight going on inside of him.Gabriel Rivers stood in front of him. He had broken his heart once. Once cold and uncaring, his eyes now begged for help. "Ethan, please," Gabriel begged in a shaking voice. "I know I made a mistake. I'm sorry if I hurt you. I love you, though. You are my destiny, and I can't stand to be apart from you."Gabriel's words hurt Ethan's heart because he knew they were true, but he couldn't ignore the complicated web of feelings that had formed around him. He looked at Amelia, who was a few steps away and had a mix of worry and desire on her face."Amelia," he said in a whisper, "there's something you need to know." He then told her the shocking truth about her past and the lies she had been
Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow. The old stones under his feet pulsed with the moon's energy. The air was cool and smelled like pine trees. The stars twinkled in the sky. He couldn't get Gabriel's words from the full moon ritual out of his mind. Gabriel said, "I was wrong, Ethan," and his voice was full of sorrow. "You are my real destiny."But before Ethan could answer, a voice broke the silence. It was a voice that made him shiver."That's right, Gabriel?"When Ethan turned around, Amelia was standing there with hurt and angry eyes. She had been hiding in the dark and listening to what was going on.Gabriel sucked hard, and his face turned pale. "Amelia, I can try to explain."Ethan's hands were tightly closed at his sides. He had believed Gabriel would be honest and try to make up for what he had done, but now it seemed like a cruel game.Amelia looked at Ethan, trying to find out what was going on. "Ethan, what about you? "What would y
Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow, where the full moon was shining white light. Ancient magic was being talked about all through the night, and he could feel the weight of fate in the air."Ethan, are you sure about this?" Olivia asked, with worry in her voice. She stood next to him, and the moon's light shone in her eyes.Ethan nodded and kept his eyes on the road that went deeper into the field. "Liv, I need to know the truth. Regarding Amelia."Olivia held on tight to his arm. "Watch out. We have no idea what we may find."Ethan took a step forward after giving a firm nod, and Olivia followed. As they moved further into the mysterious field, the tall grass rustled under their feet. The soft hum of the night creatures made a spooky melody all around them.Ethan's heart skipped a beat when they got to the middle of the field. There, under the light of the moon, stood Amelia. Her long, dark hair fell down her back, and her eyes had a glow tha
As Ethan stood in the dark lane, his heart was racing and his senses were on high alert. Olivia, his best friend and ally, had sent him an important message saying she knew where Gabriel was. After their fight at the full moon celebration, it had been weeks, and Ethan was still split between his feelings for Gabriel and his growing feelings for Amelia."Where are you, Olivia?" Ethan spoke quietly into the phone, and his breath could be seen in the cold night air.Olivia's quiet answer was, "I'm almost there, Ethan." "But you have to watch out. Gabriel's pack is always watching me."Ethan's jaw was tight. He knew it was risky to talk to Gabriel, but he could no longer ignore the pain in his heart. He needed to find a way to end things.The sound of something moving in the dark made Ethan nervous. He took a look around as his werewolf senses grew stronger. Someone was getting close.Olivia said, "Ethan, he's coming," very quickly.And then Gabriel Rivers came out of the darkness. Even t
