The chill of dawn still clung to the air as Sebastian Bodane, in human form, strode through the dew-kissed grounds of LandingTown. His golden hair, a stark contrast to the emerging light, swayed with each confident step. Tonight’s ball had been a tiresome affair, filled with simpering admirers and predictable conversation, yet he’d played his part flawlessly.

He paused, his gaze drawn to the quiet majesty of the moon still lingering in the western sky. A faint unease, a prickle on his skin, told him he wasn't alone. It was a familiar sensation, one that usually meant another woman was about to make her move. But this felt different. Sharper. Predatory.

Turning, his blue-green eyes narrowed, catching sight of a woman standing in the shadows of an ancient oak, her silhouette framed by the burgeoning light. Elsabet. She had been watching him all evening, her intense gaze a constant, unsettling presence. Now, as she stepped forward, her eyes, previously a startling blue, began to bleed to ruby.
