Black Honey
Sara Graves has spent most of her life surviving in silence-enduring the bruises no one asks about, obeying a mother who looks the other way, and hiding from a stepfather who only knows control. At seventeen, with a secret growing inside her and nowhere safe to turn, she makes a choice that changes everything: she runs. Jax Stone has always noticed Sara-quiet, guarded, unreachable. He saw the pain she never spoke of. When she shows up at his hidden shed in the middle of the night, carrying more than just a backpack, he doesn't ask questions. He gives her warmth, safety... and time. But safety doesn't last. With Sara's past still clawing at her heels and Jax facing choices that could destroy everything he's built to protect her, their fragile peace is put to the test. What begins as a refuge slowly turns into something more-a dangerous love born from trauma, trust, and two broken hearts that may not survive the world outside. In the dark, love is a risk. But for Sara, staying was never an option.Complete![Fate - Book #1 [completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/298300356-256-k105974.jpg)

That is, until she decides to escape, oblivious to the fact she would run into the arms of another man who scares her like the rest.

Unfortunately her struggles aren't over yet; she must integrate into Xavier's society of werewolves, pushing aside the remnants of her dark past to look forward to the future. The only problem is, her role as a Luna might become her breaking point; she may not be able to live the life she's always dreamed of living.
