18 year old Katona Willows life changes when her parents die in a mysterious fire, and now she's wanted by a secret organisation, that could cost everything she is.
I ran as fast as I could into the broken front door of the house, now in flames.
"MOM! DAD! SIS!" I screamed through my hoarse voice. The fire was spreading and it was closing in all around me, it's tongues reaching to lick my heating skin.
I searched and searched, but they were nowhere to be found. As I stared down, ready to give up, I noticed three blackened bodies lying against the wall. "No..." I whispered to myself.
"NO!" I screamed as my eyes watered and tugged at my hair as I searched for a way out. I ran into the crisping dining room, jumping over flames. In desperation I ran into my parent's bedroom. The fire was growing closer to me and my only way out was the window, cracked in the heat. I leaped out and ran for the forest, only to find it engulfed in flames. The smoke overwhelmed me and filled my lungs. I felt my eyes close and my body fall to the ground as the world around me died in smoke and fire.

The Fate of The Luna
This is book one of the series. Jordan shifts slightly in my lap so she can see my face. "Liam, I want you to mark me." She bluntly states and exposes her neck to me, so I can mark her. A wave of confusion comes over me and I tilt my head looking at her. "Are you sure that is what you want?" I look at her neck where my mark should be and feel my canines extending. Jordan simply smiles and nods her head. I readjust our bodies, so she is underneath me. I lean down and softly kiss her lips. The kiss burns my lips and not in the normal mate bond way. I pull away and rub my lips trying to get the sensation to go away. Jordan stares at me with her eyes squinted. I look her over and see nothing short of the perfect mate I am used to, however, something isn't right. Jordan pulls me down closer to her and starts leaving little kisses all over my body. Every place her lips touch immediately burns. I push her away and move towards the bottom of the bed. She sits up and moves to come closer to me. I move away again. "Liam, don't you want to mark me? Don't you want this?" Jordan looks at me pouting. This is when I realize what is going on. I smile and move to her. "Of course, I want to my queen," I coo at her and grab her wrists and pin them behind her head. My hands are burning from touching her, but I fight through it. I start leaving kisses all along her neck and pause where my canines are supposed to sink into her neck. Jordan lets out a throaty moan and I can smell her arousal. I kiss up and towards the middle of her throat. My canines extend and I bite into her throat and rip it out. Her eyes fill with pain and she struggles before the life is finally drained out of her. I drop the muscle and flesh from my mouth and let out a howl of victory.Complete

Again, I ran and jumping over the fence to the property, muscles burning, my breathing short. I look behind me, not seeing the light of the school anymore. I slow down, holding my breath again. Looking around, only trees and bugs surround me. I slowly sank to my knees, gripping the grass in between my fingers, to keep my breathing calm. Tears springing to my eyes and brushing the tears away, slowly getting back to normal. Suddenly, I felt someone behind me. I could feel its strength and power surround me, turning around to see a dark figure behind me. Glowing blue eyes stared at me, seeing it slowly walk toward me. My breathing becoming short again, a panic attack was on the verge. A hand was now on my shoulder and another on my cold cheek, making me look into his eyes, "Let me help you..." He whispered.

"Allowing myself to feel this happiness, to feel you...this is me forgiving myself." He kissed me, calming the raging storm in me and igniting a new one.
