“He bit you,” "I know he bit me." she jerked back as Zack put his hand on her forehead. "Answer my question, Zack. Where's Silas? He told me that he loved me,” she whimpered, her breath hitching painfully in her chest. “I believed him and I trusted him like an idiot... and yet he hurt me this way. I hate him,” Zack closed his eyes and swallowed the lump in his throat, “You might not hate him as much when this phase is over and you finally understand why he did what he did,” Amara pulled back, “I will never understand,” she said bitterly. “And I will never, ever forgive him.” —------ Amara Rhodes has just returned to Oakhaven after being away for two years, and the town is nothing like she remembers…Nothing like the town she left behind. On the surface, nothing seems to have changed, but beneath it, strange things are happening. People are disappearing in the woods. Dead bodies are turning up in the city. The people Amara once knew and trusted—from her own cousin to the ex who broke her heart—are keeping secrets that defy reality, and the dangerously handsome firefighter who saved her pride the day they met might be the most lethal monster of them all. Amara wants nothing more than to run from it all, but somehow she finds herself trapped in the middle of a war she didn't know existed, swept into a deadly feud between a pack of werewolves and their enemies who seek to destroy them, and now survival means playing a game where the rules are written in blood. Getting away doesn't seem like an option anymore. Not when their enemies are closing in… And not when she has fallen in love with the monster she wants to get away from.
