Whitby sleeps by the sea, unaware of what walks its streets after dark.
Elias has learned how to survive quietly - how to exist between hunger and restraint, between the past and the present. He keeps to the hours no one watches and the places no one lingers.
Eliza lives by the tide tables and the weight of old records, unaware that some histories refuse to stay buried.
When their paths cross beneath lamplight and salt-stained skies, something ancient begins to unravel.
This is a story about monsters who resist becoming monsters, about love found in the space between tides - and the cost of choosing to stay.

~ It is by Mene's word that new age has been born, a new world ~ Ezekiel Ruiz was unwillingly stuck between two worlds. He was a wild and that was where he found the most comfort, lost in the darkness while his wolf took over. But Amelia's Blessing had his wolf barring the darkness from him, refusing him his familiar comfort, the compulsion to find the viper he mated to screaming without the pain to drown it out. At times he felt like the blessing was a curse. ~ Change is always hard, and it is in our nature as wolves to fight it ~ Julieta Esperanza Valentina Cruz had always played by the rules, it was what she had been taught, it was what was fair. She had lived by them. Except that doesn't work when others refuse to play fair. Her brother's best friend banished from the pack, a fight but not. Then the moon saw fit to pair her with the victor and the world showed just how unfair it could be. Banished from her home, struggling to survive in a world that felt callous and cruel, Julieta struggled to hold onto hope but as the years dragged on it got harder and harder. Her hope disappeared entirely when the illegal rogues found her and took her. Sometimes she wished Mene's love wasn't so brutal. ~ But Mene guides us in our lives, listen to her loving whispers, she never gives us more than we can withstand ~ A singular night changes everything. Ezekiel makes a choice that topples his world into the clinging dredges of the past and Julieta comes face to face with a male she had once had a foolish little crush on what feels like lifetimes ago. However as they navigate the treacherous waters they have been flung into, they both learn that home is not a simple place, it's where you make it, and who you make it with. ~ You will reach your destiny, Mene wills it. ~

Rejected then Claimed by the Alpha
I only gave him one night. One night to prove I wasn't just the human maid cleaning his mansion floors. And by dawn, the Alpha shattered me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and chose another to wear the crown at his side. He never knew that night left me with more than scars. It left me with a son. Two years later, I'm not the weak girl who cried when he cast me aside. And I'm back not for him, but for my child. Kael thinks he can ignore the past. He thinks he can demand my forgiveness. But I don't care about his crown, or his throne, or the Luna who clings to him like she's untouchable. All I care about is protecting my son. And if the Alpha thinks he can claim us now... he'll learn that nothing is fiercer than a mother who refuses to be erased. #rejectedmate #forbiddenbon #onenightstand #Alpha
