*Revised Edition* A secret baby. A rejected mate. The Beastman who claims her. Stay away from Naomi Green. That’s all I’ve heard since I was a child. That I was a cursed, unwanted thing destined to be sacrificed to a vicious god. So it came as no surprise when my witch of a mother dumped me in the Silver Forest to be claimed when I turned eighteen. Tucked away in Luna Cove for my entire life, where shifters roam and slayers hunt, I’m used to encountering the paranormal. But nothing prepares me for meeting the Beastman, a god among the immortal. He towers over me, covered in glossy black fur with wickedly sharp claws and eyes the color of blood. His instincts demand an omega like me submit. But little does he know I’m carrying a secret from the first time we met. Rejected, I’ve plotted his downfall ever since. Now, under the blood moon, it’s time for my revenge. First Blood (Beastmen of Luna Cove, Book One) is a dark curvy girl omegaverse monster romance set in the Atherverse Universe.
