Lana Danley lives her peaceful life in the small town of Rosecliff where she is a senior in high school. The mundane routine of her daily life is weighing on her as she can only dream of the day she graduates and moves to the big city. 
One night, during her shift as a part time forest ranger she finds an unusually large and injured wolf. She decides to help it by bringing it home to treat it’s wounds. Later that night when she goes to check on the wolf, she finds instead her classmate, River Attwood, naked and glaring daggers at her. Soon, she is pulled into the mysteries of Rosecliff and its entanglement with the creatures of the night who rule over the forest, werewolves.

The Moon and Her Secret

　　Throughout their remaining shift together, Lana noticed how Ray was moving around constantly. He never stayed inside the station for too long, especially when Lana was there. She did not want to overthink the situation but it was hard for her not to do so when Ray was making it obvious that he was avoiding her. He would not even look at her general direction.


　　Lana pondered on whether he was mad at her or if he thought she was mad at him. Either way, she knew she had to do something to fix the suffocating air that was slowly creeping on to them.


　　“Your shift’s nearly over right? You should go and pack up.” Hannah suddenly mentioned.


　　Lana glanced at the wall clock, it was nearly midnight. She then looked around the station, not even a bit surprised when she did not spot Ray. “Do you know where Ray went?” Lana asked Hannah.


　　Hannah shrugged. “Last I saw, he was outside talking to Jack.”
