marked by moon

Hope Mikaelson - the world's only tribrid, born of vampire, werewolf, and witch blood - wanders deep into the forest, seeking solitude from the chaos of her supernatural legacy. The trees whisper ancient secrets, and the moon casts silver shadows across her path. That's when she sees her: a tall, striking girl with short red-and-blue hair, a white wolf tattoo howling at the moon across her back, and eyes that burn with quiet power.

Her name is Ash Blackwood, an alpha hybrid of wolf and fox descent. Strong, sarcastic, and fiercely protective, Ash is unlike anyone Hope has ever met. Their connection is instant - primal, electric, and undeniable. ash's loyalty and hidden tenderness begin to unravel the walls Hope built around her heart. And when ash sings softly to her under the stars, Hope realizes she's found something she never thought possible: a mate who sees her not as a weapon, but as a woman worth loving.

From that moment, the forest is no longer a place of escape - it's the beginning of everything.
