  
“What did you see on the video?” Mishka asked in a whisper. She could not keep her curiosity to herself. She needed to know even before dinner.  
“We saw Myrtle call the cat into the nursery and then she fed it a live rat. She wasn’t even afraid to hold onto the rat by its tail,” Gillian responded.

While Mishka Classens practices her singing in the woods one afternoon she runs into Bruce Cameron, a handsome, famous fashion designer. 
When she confides in her friend, Gillian’s mother about the meeting, Joan tells her that Bruce is an estranged cousin of Joan’s and that he is a werewolf. 
So, Joan wants Mishka to keep Gillian away from Bruce and keep the family secret, but Gillian already has a crush on him.
Bruce wants to be a normal human because his human family does not accept him as a wolf, but he also loves his unusual powers and diverse creativity. 
Eventually he and Mishka confide in each other about their burdens in life and become close with regular meetings in the woods, where they exchange creative ideas about fashion and music. They also plan to do shows together. 
Myrtle, Mishka’s bossy grandmother is an undercover fortune teller. She had a premonition about Mishka being involved with a werewolf one day, so she wants to orchestrate Mishka’s life so that this will never happen. 
She almost has a heart attack when she finds out that Mishka is involved with Bruce. She tries everything in her power to split them apart.
After a series of weird and bad events, Mishka and Bruce find out that Myrtle is causing the problems in their lives and in their relationship. They decide to join forces against her by confusing her spells, making them powerless.



The Siren and the Wolf

Mishka avoided Rose’s gaze at this point. Was Bruce referring to the Moonstone? It was enough that Myrtle had detected it through her powers. The fewer people who knew about it the better. They should make sure that they don’t tell Rose about it. Hopefully her powers were not as strong detectors as Myrtle’s. 


“We will have to find out what exactly she wants from us,” Bruce responded with a shrug, casting a quick glance at Mishka who gave a quick smile in return. 


“Well, let’s find out if she has anything to do with your son’s disappearance,” Mishka said as she continued to sip at her coffee. 


“Yes, while we make sure that we search for your son. But, should we search for your daughter-in-law as well, or do you know where she is?” Bruce asked. 


“Oh, she wrote to me when she was living with a friend a while ago,” Rose responded. “She might have moved on and declared her husband as presumed dead? I don’t know,” Rose responded.
