I was five the first time my life changed and Mum married Ben, and a better step-dad I never could have asked for. I was eight when it changed again and I found out my family was different, that they weren't human like me. I was thirteen when more change came and I lost my protector, when Nico left and never looked back. I was almost eighteen when it was changed irrevocably, when Ben died. For some unknown reason, Ben's death brought Nico back to me. Only he's not the Nico I remember. He's familiar and foreign all at the same time. And I'm drawn to him even though I'm not supposed to be. We're forbidden, whatever that means, but I've never been privy to the secrets of the lycanthus. But Nico's not the only one who's changed. Neither is he the only one who hears the steady beat of the moon's Wild Heart when we're together.
