Princess-marigold
Serenity Cole grew up in the shadow of magic. Her mother-a hedge-witch feared and respected in New Orleans-taught her one rule above all else: survive quietly. But when an unexplained supernatural attack shatters their home, mother and daughter are forced to run, leaving behind spells, secrets, and bloodstained wards.
They settle in Beacon Hills, hoping anonymity will keep them safe. Instead, the town awakens something buried deep within Serenity.
Creatures begin to circle. The Nemeton hums when she's near. Her magic surges faster than it should, slipping beyond her control-and her mother refuses to explain why. Serenity soon realizes that whatever attacked them before is still hunting her... and Beacon Hills may be the key to finishing the job.
Scott McCall senses her presence almost immediately, unsure whether she's an ally or a threat. The pack watches closely as Serenity walks the fragile line between protection and destruction. Only Stiles Stilinski sees past the danger-to the girl desperately trying to understand what she's becoming. As feelings spark between them, Serenity is forced to confront the truth her mother has hidden for years:
She was never meant to hide.
She was meant to be claimed.
And the Nemeton remembers her. 🌲✨
