"Celeste, you are not like any other human being."

* * *

The day after she turned 21, her grandmother’s words sent a shiver down her spine. The world she thought she knew was more than she expected, with vampires, werewolves, and witches, whom she discovers are all real. 

The more she discovers, the more nothing makes sense to her. She has a mate who is a CEO and an Alpha, and she learns that a vampire king is out to get her. Now more than ever, she needs to accept who she is.

But, can she protect the people she loves and cares about? Can Celeste face the vampire who will stop at nothing to get what he wants?

Dangerous Moon

I mind-linked Matthew as soon as I arrived at the hospital. He said that Celeste wanted some fresh air and was on the rooftop. I skip the elevator and run up the stairs.


I walk outside to the roof and spot Matthew close by. He nods in the direction of Celeste. She is sitting on the bench with her legs underneath her. Her eyes are shut, and her face is facing the moon. 


She looks like she is at peace, I was expecting her to be more ignited and on edge. Watching her sit there in a state of relaxation stirs a desire.  


She suddenly gets up and stumbles backward, I quickly get behind her to catch her. She whips her head around and she looks up at me. Her eyes grow huge.


“Zayden!” I spin her around and pull her into my arms. Her sweet lavender smell is intoxicating. I can feel her relaxing in my arms. 


“I missed you so much, Celeste.” It may have only been a few days, but for me, it felt like a century. 


She pulls away from me and blinks up at me with her green eyes.
