Rose Thorns was a meek, oblivious, trustful, 16 year old girl, enjoying the warmth her mate, Xavier Gray, gave her. She was the Luna of the Midnight Pack but was very weak because she didn't reach her full potential; as a result, her pack looked down on her. So what does Xavier do? He cheats on her with Rose's best friend, Ruby, just for the thrill of it. Though it wasn't his plan to get caught red handed in the end as well as her leaving him either.
Finding a new home, Rose begins again, but because of her weakness, she couldn't stop the tragic things coming for her. But who knew, that the pain and sadness that she faces was going to be the one thing awakening her to her true form? Awakening her blood lust?

"What's wrong with you? You were so caring and sweet before, what happened? Why do you act so cold? Don't you have a heart?"
Xavier yelled after me, his voice booming throughout the halls of the pack house. His raised voice brought attention to us as people began to stop and stare; some even daring to whisper to each other in front of me. Glaring at those people, I stopped in my step, not turning to him, but not ignoring him,
"See, that's where the problems lie. I was too careless, too far in love to notice the obvious lies you were making. I was too weak to face you head on, too weak to save those people, too weak to protect myself. But things changed. What happened? What happened was that I realized that in this world, you can't trust people who can say 'I love you' so easily. But you're right Xavier, I WAS sweet and caring, but that was in the past. The person you're dealing with is the me NOW, so if you have any complaints, keep it to yourself because I'm not the same Rose that would wag their tail so eagerly for you, the Rose that would want to please you every fleeting minute. I'm the Rose that grew up; the Rose you broke. So yes Xavier, I do have a heart. But I'm far too fucked up now to feel anything with it."
"Who's there," I can't breath. I'm always looking over my shoulder ever since- I can't think about the now. I have to run but where, back to Jake? No I can't, everything is different now. He's supposed to be here to protect me, because if the got me... blood smears the pages of the passed. "Sapphire!" I hear him call. "Coal!" I reach out to touch him only for him to be yanked just out of my reach. I hear the wolves in the distance howling at the beautiful moon. I need his touch again. I need to know I'm safe. The only safe place anymore is pressed against him under the sheets. "Coal!" I call out again. ---I can hear her. She's here somewhere I know it. I can smell her sent threw the thick of the woods. "Sapphire!" I call out, but my call is lost in the night. I have to protect her. I have to save one, just one. Maybe that will be enough to clean the blood off my tainted skin. What if they get her? She'll... Change... I look up at the moon, could she not have heard my howls? Of course she did. She always did. I can hear the other wolves in the forest. Soon I too would be engulfed by the beast. Unable to control myself, unable to predict the beasts next move. Only she could tame the beast inside me. Why be afraid of the monster under the bed when you should be afraid of the one lying next to you under the sheets.--- I keep quiet in the deep dark night. Watching her waiting for her to come back to me. I wait for him to slip up just long enough for me to swoop in and take her. It's only a matter of time. I wait for him to turn into that hideous beast. The beast that only comes out in the light of the moon. The beast that feeds of the insentient. I have to find her,to make her perfect, at least that's what they tell me. They tell me she'll be perfect and she will be mine. She will be the beginning of a new ere the ere of the beast. Everyone has secrets. Everyone lies. Everyone cries. Everyone dies.
