The first time for everything is always unique, different, unforgettable, and this time was no exception. For most people, there is only life, and then death. For her, she acutely remembers the first time she died. If she were asked to describe how it had felt for the breath to seize in her lungs and her heart to still in her chest for the first time, she would be at a loss for words.
For just as there are syllables that the human tongue cannot form and emotions that humans have yet to put a name to, this also was her first time experiencing death and no matter how many more times it happens, the elusive shroud of death will always remain a mystery to her.
She was there one moment, gone another, and yet there once again. It is something that humans with their proclivities to clinging to the known and to their comfort zone can never fathom, something that would have inspired their nearly constant fear of the unknown as surely as dawn, but then, only if they knew.
There are people that would do anything to continue living, and at the same time, people that would take the first chance to end it all.
For Maria, is her magic a gift or a curse?

For three years, I waited to become the perfect Luna for my pack, to give the Alpha an heir. Three years of lies, of being the outsider in someone else's love story. Three years of grieving the loss of my baby and plotting revenge against the man who disfigured my face and ruined my womb. I had two choices: die at the hands of my own pack or escape and survive. I chose to hide and live. The Lycan King, Fenrir Lycros-the most bloodthirsty, ruthless ruler to ever lead the werewolves with an iron fist-made me his personal maid. It was the most dangerous role I could have, where even the slightest mistake could cost me my life. But no one from my past would think to look for me here. "Always be submissive, don't speak unless spoken to, don't listen, don't see anything, don't disturb the Lycan or you will die," were the simple rules I followed. I thought I was doing well-until one day, the King made me an offer I couldn't refuse. "Do you want me to save those people? Then give yourself to me tonight. Be my woman. I desire you, and I know you feel the same. Just once, Raven, only once..." But it wasn't just once. Passion turned into something deeper, something neither of us could deny. That cold, untamable man had somehow conquered my heart as well. However, when the past returned to haunt me and the truth about my birth came to light, I faced another choice: run from the Lycan King or wait for his mercy. "I'm sorry, but this time, I won't lose my pups again-not even for you, Fenrir Lycros."
