For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything. Whispers of a fae-killing monster begin to circulate the Moon Court. It lurks in the woods, feeding off the mana of its victims. Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away. If Vera wishes to slay the beast, she will first have to uncover the secret of the manor and its prisoner before it's too late. 𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜. 𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.

Monster: Origins
Monsters are real. They've always been here, hiding in plain sight. Sam had no idea... until something ancient and hungry stepped out of the woods and tore his life apart. Now he's not just running from the darkness... he is the darkness. Twisted into a creature he doesn't understand, driven by a brutal urge that he can't control, Sam must choose: protect the ones he loves, or embrace the monster inside. In a new city, Sam is hunted on all sides by those who slay things like him without mercy... Hunters. Sam hides among them, searching for answers as he helps them track something hiding right under their noses... Sam himself. But as he gets closer to their secrets and their daughter Autumn, his own secrets risk coming out. What will happen when his curse attracts even greater threats that slumber beneath the city, from a dark, hidden place that might destroy them all? What will happen when Sam stops holding back and lets... IT... out? Will he discover what he has truly become? When he was still human, he thought monsters were myths and legends. Now... he has to study those old legends to try and figure out what exactly is hiding behind his eyes. His fears begin to swell, overtaking his fabricated life as he slowly realizes something. The thing he's carrying inside of him is maybe something far older, and exponentially more dangerous than any of them is prepared to face. This is a story to try and address the question we have all asked ourselves after watching that one movie, or finishing that great book. What would "we" actually do if we were turned into something? If we had the power and anonymity to move in the dark like a supernatural creature, how would that play out with an average person and their family? -Slow-burn progression -Deeper emotional story -Hard choices to be made -Makes mistakes -Slow-burn progression -Deeper emotional story -Hard choices to be made
