The breeze rustled gently against the leaves. The songbirds stopped their sweet tune as a little girl froze in the middle of the forest. Golden specks of sunlight danced across the grass and across the girl's dazzling blue-silver eyes, making her squint.
The day was young, but that meant nothing in this dangerous supernatural world. Monsters attacked at all times of the day.
A twig snapped in the distance to the girl's right. Her head turned in the same direction, inhaling sharply at the bold, bright amber eyes glowing in the bushes. A low growl followed as the girl stepped back in anticipation.
The girl didn't think before turning and sprinting as fast as her tiny legs could carry her. The pink dress already bore signs of play, mud spotted along her clothes, and white tights ripped at the knees.
Welcome back! I know it's been overdue!
There is much to look forward to in this volume of the next generation!
Here is a synopsis to give more context about Keira's story:
Being a Cross came with an elite status, fortune and fame. Werewolves bow down to them, and humans are either crazed fans or obsessed with taking them down and dismantling their hierarchy.
Among the utterly high-achieving, perfect, and outstanding Cross siblings, 17-year-old Keira felt like a fake, a fraud among them. The pressure of never living up to society’s expectations as the Alpha Queen’s daughter is overwhelming. Now, with the arrival of Kodi Black, a new student at Cross Academy, any foundation she has is about to be shaken.
Naïve, coddled, and fed with a silver spoon, Kodi Black despises everything about his mate. Unlike everyone who treats her like a reincarnated goddess, Kodi is not subtle about his dislike for the princess. But when an attack on the school leads to a kidnapping attempt to take what is HIS, Kodi chases after the girl who knows nothing about the real world.
Left to explore the world without the restraints of her name, recognition and guards following her, Keira revels in staying out of the spotlight. She uses this opportunity to discover who she truly is without the weight of the Cross name.
