DARREN’S POV:

I found my way home and saw my mom waiting at my secret door. Before, I woke up somewhere, covered in blood. Beside me was a carcass. My greatest fear is waking up with a human corpse next to me. But over time, I manage to control the beast in me. I am fully aware now of what’s happening around me.

“Mom,” I sobbed every time. I still can’t accept my curse.

“Hush now, son. I am so sorry we can’t do anything for you,” mom wraps her arms around me.

This is the scenario of every full moon, and I hate it. I hate myself; I hate my curse. Oftentimes, I tried to end it, stabbing myself, but I healed fast.

    Leona pattered into the woods, following the scent. The deeper she got, the more pungent the smell was. The howl confirmed her thoughts. If it was indeed a werewolf, she needed to investigate what pack he came from. But she was hopeful it wasn’t from the Silver Dawn, or else it was time to leave.Darren heard some footsteps and quickly climbed onto a tree. It was a full moon. He transformed immediately as he stepped out under the moonlight. It was inevitable. Sniffing the air, he remembered the scent getting close to his direction. It’s Leona.What is she doing here?
