0The Lycanth's Lake
The last sliver of twilight bled from the sky, casting the forest lake in shades of deep indigo and rose. Mist, like a whispered secret, began to curl across the water's glassy surface, mirroring the silent, ancient pines. Lyra stood at the edge, her silver hair a beacon against the fading light, her werewolf ears twitching almost imperceptibly with the rustle of distant leaves.
Her crimson gown, a masterpiece of silk and lace, shimmered with every breath, a defiant splash of color in the muted landscape. It flowed around her, a train spreading like spilled wine on the mossy ground, held by a corset that hinted at both strength and delicate artistry. Tonight was the night of the Blood Moon, and though her human heart yearned for peace, the ancient call of her lycanth ancestry stirred within her. She was a bridge between two worlds, a queen of both the civilized and the wild, and as the first star pierced the darkening sky, Lyra knew her true journey was about to begin. The moon awaited her, and with it, a choice that would echo through the shadowed woods forever.
