WINNER: 3rd Place, 2021 Werewolf Competition [Mature Content] After escaping suicide forest, August Moon finds that she has only gone deeper into the mysteries it holds. Lycans exist. But maybe she is something even stranger... With a clandestine experimental pandemic, a decade-old murder mystery, and a timeless prejudice against strange members within the lycan community all simmering in the periphery of her newfound surroundings, August must fight to discover her own truth alongside a fierce and possessive male who claims to be her mate.
"This circle of women was made after our previous Alpha and Luna were killed, but I know Genevieve would have embraced the wild feminine energy that we have tapped into and the companionship we have forged together," Sylvia reached to hold the hands of the women on either side of her, and like an inverse domino effect, an unbreakable chain was created with each woman holding the hand of the woman next to her.
"August Moon, we welcome you to the circle," Charlotte spoke. Various "welcomes" and "welcome to the circles" were repeated after Charlotte's.
"Thank you for having me," she replied shyly.
"As you can no doubt sense already, our future Luna is of a quiet, sweet spirit," Sylvia smiled affectionately at her, and August felt her cheeks grow warm.
"But she is also fierce enough to take on a bear," Greta spoke from August's side. The women chuckled, and Vera clapped with a little whoop before holding the hands of those next to her again.
