Season 1 of The Moonlit Curse Kiya Bridges has spent her whole life learning to hunt the unnatural. She, alongside the five other members of the Monster Hunter Corps, are some of the most capable soldiers the Kingdom of Westmora has ever seen. But since no one has seen a monster in over five hundred years, it's hard to take the missions seriously. All it takes is one bite from a rogue werewolf to shatter Kiya's worldview and open a void of uncertainty beneath her feet. One bite, and she is forced to confront everything she thought she knew about the world. With no one else to rely on, the only person she can turn to is the local innkeeper, August. As a subservient alpha to the Silverkeep Pack, August never imagined he would be the only one willing to guide a new victim of the curse. In order to protect her from the rest of his pack, August must hide his true identity from Kiya, but he finds himself drawn to the beautiful hunter, and she finds herself trusting him more and more. As Kiya's transition progresses in ways they couldn't imagine, the shadow of the rogue looms in the distance. A threat to Kiya's future, and a ghost of August's past.

"What is beautiful anyways? Is it the color of someone's skin or eyes? Their height? The way they dress? What is it?" I asked, not really expecting an answer.

Someone who doesn't see with their eyes but their heart," he replied playing with the bracelet around his wrist, "That truly is a beautiful thing." Celeste has been called beautiful all of her life. She is convinced that guys only want to go out with her because that's all they say they like about her. She's beautiful. To graduate Celeste needs thirty-five hours of community service.

They say in life there are no second chances. But what if you had blown it with the girl of your dreams? What would you do knowing that she was out there, in other realities, realities you hadn't screwed up? That kind of thing could really mess you up... and it could make you do "some crazy." Down-on-his-luck David Blunt is as loser as a loser you can get; recently kicked out of school and fired from his dead end job, David's been squatting in his flop-house apartment, avoiding his landlord and subsisting on stale fortune cookies and cheap street meat for weeks. But when David reads a fortune that predicts an epic future for him, he starts to think that his luck is about to change. Emma Gossett is a spirited world traveler full of wanderlust, and never stays put in one place long enough to form any attachments. Her lovable and eccentric Gran insists this is because she was hidden from the Norns as a babe to keep them from naming Emma's fate, a fable Emma puts little faith in. But when Emma meets David, her faith in reality is shaken to the core. Does this rambling cynical romantic hold the answer to the prevailing sense of déjà vu she's been feeling lately? Or is it just something else, as her new and mysterious and magnetic acquaintance Gabriel insists? Perhaps he holds the key to the mysterious sensations she has felt of living another life alongside her own. All Your Fates is a multiverse mindwarp with supernatural elements that one reader commented: "This story is twisting into ways a pretzel couldn't even try!!"
