Orion's Dilemma ~
Orion was unlike any being who had ever walked the Earth. Born of two worlds, he carried the feral strength of a werewolf and the celestial essence of an alien race. His dual nature made him both feared and revered among his kind, but it also left him with a heart divided between duty and desire.
When he first saw her, the human who would unknowingly unravel his carefully bound fate, it was as if the stars themselves had shifted. The pull was immediate, undeniable-an ancient recognition that transcended time and space. She was his earthly other, the one destined to complete him.
But destiny was never simple. On his home planet, long before he ever set foot on Earth, Orion had been promised to another. A union arranged not for love, but for alliance, power, and the preservation of his people's traditions. To break that bond would mean dishonor, perhaps even war. To keep it would mean denying the truth of his soul.
Each night, as the moon rose, his instincts warred within him. The beast longed to claim her, to protect her, to bind her to him in ways no vow could sever. The alien within him whispered of duty, of the fragile balance between worlds that rested on his shoulders. And the human part of him-the part that felt, that yearned-ached with the impossible choice.
Was love worth the chaos it might unleash? Could he defy the path laid out for him since birth, or would he sacrifice his own happiness for the sake of his people?
Orion stood at the crossroads of fate, torn between the stars that had shaped him and the heart that had found its home on Earth.
