Never stray from the trail.

It was a warning told for years. A warning older than  the villagers, some would say even older than the village itself. It was the only protection they had, to stray from the trail, was to tempt death, to invoke the blood lust of the beast that resided in the haunting forest.

The beast that called to her.

Asena's twenty-first birthday was approaching fast and as it did her life as she knew it began to change rapidly. The village she'd once called home felt foreign and strange. The people she'd known her whole life began to treat her like an outcast. She found herself drawn to the woods, waking from her sleep only to find herself standing at the edge of the forest. The people resented her, the woods beckoned her near, and a sense of foreboding washed over her.

And it was all because of creature in the forest.

Wolf In The Night by melissalynn88

Emmanuelle is running, running from a heartbreak she doesn't want to remember. Packing her things she takes off, driving to a wherever her car takes her. A town hours away, a town she thinks is just abandoned and run down. If only she knew, what was really in the town she was staying in? Sitting in the bar was just a regular day for Judd. Working hard, pack meetings and then sitting back with a drink. It was the same as any other day. Except when she walked in, the woman in heels and looking completely out of place. He found himself unable to look away. Normally they ignored the humans when they stopped through, maybe scaring them off a little. Not today, something was different and Judd knew exactly why. It was her, his mate. Except she was full human and he was born a wolf. Elle is drawn to him, unable to stop herself from sitting beside the rugged man at the end of the bar, ignoring all the looks from the other men. Not realising she just sat beside the Alpha no one dared to bother of an evening. She takes a seat and feels an instant attraction, putting it down the heat she ignored it. Until her mind is overcome by alcohol and friendly talk between the two. Judd walks over to her room, tempted to run his teeth down her neck and mark what is his but fights his wolf off. Elle had every intention of leaving the next day, something stops her. Convinced she's seen something, she's too afraid to tell anyone. The town where no one looks at her or talks to her, can she finally bring herself to tell Judd what she saw? A wolf in the night.

The Blade and The Bird by kqbooks

She'd spent many years playing in this forest as a child. While Selene had enjoyed her novels in the warmth of the house, a blanket wrapped around her narrow shoulders, Sidra always came home covered in mud and scrapes from hours out in the wilderness. She'd take an axe out into the forest and pretend to fight off monsters, the terrifying Mystics that her grandmother had told her stories about. She'd pretend to fight Lycans, knocking out their massive teeth one by one. She'd stand atop rocks and throw her axe at the trees, pretending they were wood nymphs come to steal her away. She'd always return home and tell Selene about the monsters she'd fought that day, spinning together a story of courage and bravery for her little sister. She felt that pain in her heart again as she thought of those times. Through the years, she'd stop going into the woods to play, and she'd instead find stories for Selene. Books of all sizes and shapes, no matter the content, because it made her feel close to her sister just as she had before her parents died. She thought of her family now, how she was all alone. Her parents had been gone for years, her grandmother, and now even Selene was missing somewhere. She needed to find her sister, she couldn't lose the last bit of her family. **

Blessed By The Moon by DeffoNotLina

Skye woke up in a strange town, her clothes drenched in blood and her mind void of memories. The eerie silence of the streets only amplified her panic. An older couple found her and took her in, offering shelter. At first, they seemed kind, but soon their kindness turned bitter, and their compassion twisted into cruelty. Unable to endure their accusations, Skye fled into the night, wandering aimlessly through desolate roads. One night, she witnessed something horrifying: two men transforming into monstrous wolves. Their glowing eyes locked onto hers. In that moment, Skye realized the terrible truth: no human was ever supposed to witness this. And those who did... never lived to tell the tale. Before she could flee, they seized her, dragging her into their world of ancient secrets, power struggles, and untold danger. Now trapped, she found herself caught in a deadly game, one where the players weren't fully human and the rules were impossible to understand.But there was something about her forgotten past that could shift the balance of power within the pack. Her search for the truth had only just begun, but it was clear that uncovering her past might cost her more than her freedom-it could cost her life.. or maybe, it could cost them theirs.

The Beast (Alpha Trilogy #1) by Grimmy27

"I know I'm a monster, but even I have my limits!" I shout at him. He shouldn't have done that. "Wait, please, I- , let me explain. I'm sorry-" "I should've known." I say quietly as I turn around and leave him there. I will never trust him again. Not after this. She wanted to be left alone. He wanted to find his mate. She didn't know about his kind. He didn't know about her past. She was a human. He was a wolf. Will he win her over? Will she accept him? Will they be happy? Or will someone try to ruin them? Warning: mature content I don't own any of the pictures shown. None of the presented people or events are real (obviously).

Birdbrain by hollenheist

Every time I tried to stop, something clenched in my stomach, instinctual and feral. It compelled me to move. Sometimes it felt like it was pulling me in the opposite direction, back the way I came. That feeling I ignored - nothing short of demonic possession could convince me to go anywhere near that forest ever again. It wouldn't be nearly long enough that I would realize I hadn't imagined that pull. That some invisible force was compelling me towards that man. To Nate. When I did realize, I made sure I used it to keep running in the opposite direction of wherever it told me to go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Picture this: you're a 17 year old werewolf. Your Alpha, under false counsel, believes your entire family instigated a failed coup so he kills your parents, and you're next. Your options are basically die now, or turn rogue and die anyways. What do you choose - swift and painless, or drawn out and lonely? If you answered, "Neither," then you'd be correct. I didn't anticipate, though, that one bad theft in the beginning was going to send a ripple that would come back to haunt me in unimaginable ways.
