Like endless pools of molten 50 cent coins. Celestia has grown up living amongst the werewolves, sharing the forest, rivers, air, and for some reason, they tell her that she should be afraid.

The problem? I never really planned who I fell in love with. I didn't plan on not wanting to be soul mates with Brian, it's just that Alex entered my life and it just happened, and when it did, I fell hard and fast.

But we were going to prove them wrong. Because in the end, I loved him as much as a firefly with a bright burning passion. #168 in Romance on 8/16/16 -------- cover by @maytijssen Copyright bgirly16
