Chapter 1 Moonlight Encounter
The moon hung low in the night sky, casting an ethereal glow over the dense Veridorian forest. Lila's footsteps rustled the fallen leaves as she wandered deeper into the woods, captivated by the mystical ambiance. Unbeknownst to her, she was venturing into the heart of werewolf territory.
As she reached a small clearing, Lila's breath caught in her throat. A group of werewolves, their eyes aglow with an otherworldly light, encircled a blazing bonfire. Their howls reverberated through the night, a harmonious yet haunting melody that sent shivers down Lila's spine. Among them stood Aiden, the alpha of the pack, his striking features illuminated by the fire's flickering dance.
Aiden's gaze locked onto Lila's, a magnetic pull that seemed to bridge the gap between their worlds. Lila felt drawn to him in a way she couldn't explain, her heart racing as if recognizing a connection that spanned lifetimes. She approached the fire cautiously, the werewolves' attention shifting to her.
Aiden stepped forward, his eyes never leaving Lila's. "You're not afraid?" he asked, his voice a rich timbre that held a hint of curiosity.
Lila shook her head, her voice steady despite the rapid beat of her heart. "No. I'm intrigued."
The corners of Aiden's lips twitched, a hint of a smile that ignited a warmth within Lila. He extended his hand, inviting her to join the circle around the fire. As their hands touched, an electric jolt surged through Lila, a connection that transcended mere physical contact.
Little did Lila know that this moonlit encounter would mark the beginning of a forbidden love that would challenge the very fabric of their worlds.
