Moving to Ridgewood was supposed to be a fresh start. For Serena Hale, living with her grandfather in a sleepy town felt safer than the chaos she left behind. With new friends like bubbly Lila and steady Ethan, school almost feels normal - until Bryant steps into her orbit.
He's quiet. Too observant. Always there at the wrong time, with words that never quite match his expression. And when whispers of the forest begin to creep closer, Serena realizes Ridgewood holds more secrets than she ever imagined.
Some secrets don't just stay in the shadows... they watch.

Hiding From My Mate
"I need to talk to you Elly" "Why?!" "I know that you're my mate" I laughed sarcastically. "What?! Are you trying to make fun of me again like you did two years ago?" I saw everyone flinched at that and Drake had this look of hurt. "I apologised Elly! Please give me a chance. We're mates after all" he pleaded. "We. Are. Not. Mates" I said angrily. "Do I smell like your mate?" I questioned knowing he had no answer for that. "You're hiding it" "Really!" I looked surprised but that made Drake angry. "Let's go for sparks then" he tried to grabbed my hand but Josh pushed me behind him. "Are you trying to touch someone else's mate, Alpha?" Josh asked. "Josh!" Others shouted and Drake growled loudly, his eyes turning black. And he looked at me with those eyes. "Just remember Elly! I asked you nicely" with that he turned and stormed out of the library, others following him behind. ________________________________________ Elly was a quiet and smart girl who had a promising future as a doctor.
