Upon the blurred line of morality and at the mercy of circumstance, two souls meet. Again. And again. And again. So, is it simply a coincidence or something more? 

When a young Mariel leaves home, she is instructed to lead a quiet, ignoble life. Forever. And so, determined to remain overlooked, she toils endlessly, disguised as all things plain. But they say still waters run deep, and even the ordinary are not who they appear to be...

So, what would it take for those waters to ripple? 

Enter the raucous and free Axtapor, a nobleman turned pirate. Dashing through life like a tempest, he is resolved to live on his own terms, allowing none to stand in his way. But a pirate's curse is a pair of wandering eyes, a boundless appetite for more, and a fascination with the unknown.

Waters disturbed, the two upend one another's lives with misunderstanding hands and misguided compassion. The balances of fate tip dangerously and they quickly find themselves pitted against the same foe: time. The world's watchful eyes fall upon them as night coats the skies and something unexpectedly new begins to emerge.

Hope. 

Little do they know just how dangerous something like that can be.

Sylvermoon Part 1: The Prince's Prodigy by Inovawolf

She came from a simple life, a young woman orphaned by her parents, with only a cruel sister left to call family. Though she mourned the mother she never had and the father gone too soon, she found ways to enjoy her existence. The forest called to her, despite the warnings and legends she found peace there. Peace from her secrets, from the things she's seen. Or at least she thought it was peace. In mere moments this life was ripped from her, and she was left with no choice but to venture into a world inhabited by creatures of the night. He is the prince of the Sylvermoon vampires, a man shrouded in darkness and infamy. Centuries spent alone have finally convinced him that he may not be better off alone after all. The war has weighed heavy on his troubled soul, but in a world fueled by pride he refuses to show weakness. He is widely feared for his violent reputation, and short fuse. On the inside, he feels there is something missing. He has the power to achieve whatever he desires, yet his soulmate has always remained just out of reach. Joined by fate, they face great challenges to form their bond and discover their true destiny. All while under the threat of a bloodthirsty werewolf and his pack. "A match made under the light of the moon"
