Crescent learned from a young age that life is a fragile little thing, and now at 17, she's put in that same position once again on one hateful summer night. With wars and enemies coming at her from left and right, she tries to keep the last piece of "normality" she has in her life. But is it really "normality" when you're a monster, when you kill for pleasure and revenge? Human friends, supernatural friends, blurred lines and promises turned to lies.
"When the darkness comes, who will remain by you?"
This is a slow burning story, with grammar mistakes, still searching for a betareader. This story is nothing like "The Shadow of the Crescent Moon" by Fatima Bhutto.
It will contain death, romance and comedy... at some level, and fantasy.

Bound To The Shadows
When the Moon Bleeds Red, Shadows Rise. The Blood Moon rises, and with it, the old stories awaken. Legends of curses and shadows, of forbidden love and powers too great to control. For centuries, they were dismissed as myths-until the night the moon bled red and everything changed. Marked by a searing symbol in the heart of the forest, She becomes tied to a fate older than the stars. Whispers follow her every move, warning of a shadowed destiny that will demand her strength, her choices, and perhaps her soul. The villagers speak of the Blood Moon as a curse, a harbinger of ruin-but for her, it is fate. She encounters a mysterious figure cloaked in shadow of the woods, whose piercing gaze reveals a truth she cannot escape: their fates are entwined. His presence is both a warning and a temptation, drawing her deeper into a battle against forces older than time itself. With the line between life and death blurred, she must unravel the secrets of her mark and confront the shadowy forces that seek to claim her. But as the moon's light grows stronger, so does the pull of her bond to the stranger-a bond as dangerous as the blood running through her veins. In a world where every choice carries the weight of eternity, she must decide: will she embrace her cursed destiny and the love that could destroy her, or will she fight to rewrite her fate before the shadows consume everything?

Deeper Healing
"As I passionately kiss your lips and breathe all of you in, release your pain to me; let me inhale it and let my soothing touch heal your broken soul. -------- What starts as soft glares and innocent forehead kisses turns into something more carnal, deeper and wickedly tempting to explore. She isn't looking for true love, a concept she has given up on searching for. What her soul burns for is a man's touch to set her body ablaze and consume her completely in a whirlwind of intense pleasure and ecstasy. He desires a vibrant woman to do all the wickedly sinful things burning in his mind to, one who can unleash the dominant beast in him and torture sensually with all the pleasure he has to offer. She seems to be all he's ever needed and maybe someone whose heart he can heal and stitch back in place piece by piece until it can beat hard in her chest again and say his name. But nothing ever comes on a silver platter, especially with loads of drama and misfortunes tailing each one of them from sources closer than they could ever imagine. ⚠︎Warning: This story contains explicit sexual content, mentions of sexual assault, mild language, drama and is a slowburnComplete
