Introduction

A modern day twist of what really happened between Little Red Riding Hood, her Grandmother, and the Wolf.
What if the story was all wrong?
What if a Curse brought them together?
➖➖
"What are you?!" I shrieked. My mind trying to figure out ways to escape. He leaned in and whispered in my ear, which caused shivers to roll down my spine.
"I'm your big bad wolf, and your my little red" he said smirking.

Chapter 1

Evangeline's P.O.V

"EVANGELINE! IT'S TIME TO GO!" My mother yelled and I sighed. Today was moving day and I have to live with my great-grandmother, who I haven't even met yet.

"Mom why do we have to move?" I asked her while giving her my last box. She took it and packed it into the car. I thought she was going avoid my question but then she spoke up.

"Because honey, I can't be in this town anymore. Not after the accident" she said and I saw tears streaming down her face. She wiped them away and quickly made her way to the car. I sighed and made my way into the passenger seat of the car. With a last look, I kissed my childhood home good-bye and my mother drove off.

➰➰➰➰

My mother informed me we had about an hour left on the road so I popped my earphones in my ears and watched the trees pass by. I was just about to ask my mother a question when something zoomed onto the road.

"MOM WATCH OUT!" the car swerved and I blacked out.

But not before I saw a huge dog in the middle if the road looking at me with the brightest blue eyes I have ever seen.

➰➰➰➰

I woke up to these annoying beeping sounds. I tried to open my eyes but the lights were too bright.

Groaning I tried again and this time they opened.

I was hooked up to a I.V. Machine and a bandage on my wrist. I heard voices outside of my room. One of then I recognized as my mother's.

"Ma'am do you know what might have caused the accident?" A man,who I'm assuming was a cop, asked.

"Don't you think if I knew what caused the accident, I've would have told you already?!" My mother hissed

"Ma'am please calm down" the cop started but my mother cut him off.

"CALM DOWN?! YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN WHEN MY DAUGHTER'S IN THERE INJURED? SHE'S THE ONLY THING I HAVE LEFT! NOW TELL ME DETECTIVE DO YOU HAVE ANY CHILDREN?" She yelled and I guess he nodded because she continued "WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOUR CHILD WAS LAYING THERE?" The detective was quiet "EXACTLY! NOW IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I WANNA BE THERE WHEN MY LITTLE GIRL WAKES UP" She finished and I closed my eyes to feign sleep. I heard the door creak open and a second later my mother grabbed my hand. I heard her sobbing and muttering things.

"God please don't take her away from me, I can't deal with losing her. Please"

"Mommy?" I asked when I couldn't take her crying anymore. She gasped and grabbed my face, placing kisses over every inch of it. I winced and she looked at me with concern.

"Oh, my baby, how are you feeling? Let me go get the nurse!" She got out of her chair and was heading to the door when I grabbed her hand.

"What happened Mom?" I asked and she sat back down while taking my hand in hers.

"Well, I don't know exactly but when you screamed I swerved to the side and we hit a telephone pole" she said and looked at me "Sweetie, what did you see?" I looked at her funny.

"You mean you didn't see that huge dog in the middle of the road?"

"What dog sweetheart?" She said

"Mom, there was a huge dog that ran into the middle of the road! Didn't you see it?" She shook her head and I sighed. Something popped into my head at that very moment. "Mom, how did we get here? I remember blacking out and then nothing"

"Well apparently, we both blacked out. I was told that a Good Samaritan pulled us out of the car after tree collapsed on the car, but when the ambulance arrived on the scene, no one was there and we were on the grass a couple of feet away from the car" I was about to tell her I didn't remember anything, when the doctor walked in. He was in his late forties, I'm guessing the same age as my mother. His has light brown hair and kind green eyes. He looked at both of us and smiled but I noticed his gaze kept going back to my mother. She seemed oblivious to the situation and made her way over to him. He coughed and I noticed that his neck and ears started turning a deep red. I would have thought the situation was hilarious if I wasn't currently laying in a hospital bed.

"How is she Doctor?" My mother asked while pulling the edge of his sleeve. The blush made its way to his face and he looked down at my chart.

"Uh..." he cleared his throat "Evangeline is doing well" he said and looked at me. He seemed surprised and looked back at my chart with a confused face. My mother noticed this and started freaking out.

"WHAT HAPPENED? IS SHE OKAY?" Her face was filled with absolute terror.

"Yes,yes she's fine, it's just that when she came here she had scrapes and bruises across her face and palms. Now I hardly see cuts anywhere and her bruising is barely noticeable?" My mother calms down and looks at me.

"She's always been that way. Ever since she was little. I used to call her my little invincible girl because she rarely got hurt" my mother smile at the memory and the doctor chuckled. He looked down at her and his eyes lit up. I felt like I was intruding on something private. I coughed and they snapped back to reality.

"Um... yes well... Evangeline, if your feeling better, you can be discharged" the Doctor said and smiled. My mother thanked him and he left. A couple minutes later a nurse walked in with release papers and my mother signed them quickly. A hour later and we were in a taxi headed to my great-grandma's house.

"Mom, where's our stuff?" I asked as the driver made a left.

"Oh, the police were kind enough to take it to your great-grandmother's house" she said and continued to stare out the window. The driver turned left onto a dirt road and on a long driveway surrounded by trees. Since it was getting darker it made it look like a scene from one of those horror movies. I was freaking out and was just about to jump out of the car and run for the hills when the driver stopped in front of a two story wooden house. Something about it gave me chills. My mother jumped out of the car and paid the man who was grabbing our bags. He nodded and then quickly jumped in the car, and I swear I heard him burn rubber. He must have been just as freaked out as I was. We were just collecting our bags when a woman came out of the house. She looked like she was in her late 70's with white hair and crinkles around her eyes, and mouth. She had a smiled on her face but her eyes were cold and calculating.

She came up to us and my mother greeted her.

"Hello Dorothea, it's great to see you again" my mother said cheerfully and the woman nodded while never taking her eyes off me. I looked away because she was starting to make me uncomfortable. My mother pulled away from the hug and introduced us.

"Evangeline, this is your great-grandmother Dorothea. She was your father's grandmother" my mother said the last part quietly. Dorothea nodded at me and we all stood there awkwardly until Dorothea spoke up.

"Well it's nice to meet you Evangeline. I'm sorry I couldn't be at the hospital, Something came up " she said and I was taken aback. What kind of woman wouldn't drop what they were doing for family. Something about her struck me funny and I'm glad we only have to live with her until mom finds a job at the hospital. "Come let's go inside" she said then turned around not bothering to wait for us.

"Well isn't she just a ball of sunshine!" I said sarcastically.

"Be nice Eva" my mother said and I rolled my eyes.

"Fine" I said and my mother walked ahead of me into the house. I followed her but then stopped short when I felt eyes watching me. I turned and scanned the forest looking for the person watching me. I found nothing except a dark blur running through the forest. Something about that blur called to me and I was going to go after it when a cold calloused hand touched my shoulder. I jumped and spun around to face Dorothea. She had a scowl on her face and reached around me to close the door.

"Child close the door, you never know what could be lurking in the night"

I never applied to the Academy for Magical Beings and Creatures.

Which is why it was more than a little confusing when a letter arrived with my name already printed on a schedule, a dorm waiting, and classes picked out as if someone knew me better than I knew myself. Everyone knows the Academy, it’s where witches sharpen their spells, shifters master their forms, and every kind of magical creature learns to control their gifts.

Everyone except me.

I don’t even know what I am. No shifting, no magic tricks, nothing. Just a girl surrounded by people who can fly, conjure fire, or heal with a touch. So I sit through classes pretending I belong, and I listen hard for any clue that might tell me what’s hidden in my blood.

The only person more curious than me is Blake Nyvas, tall, golden-eyed, and very much a Dragon. People whisper that he’s dangerous, warn me to keep my distance. But Blake seems determined to solve the mystery of me, and somehow I trust him more than anyone else.

Maybe it’s reckless. Maybe it’s dangerous.

But when everyone else looks at me like I don’t belong, Blake looks at me like I’m a riddle worth solving.

Soft hot lips find the shell of my ear and he whispers, "You think I don't want you?" He pushes his hips forward, grinding into the back of my ass and I groan. "Really?" He chuckles.

"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."

I fall forward onto the bed then turn around to stare at him. The dark tattoos of Domonic's chiseled shoulders, quiver and and expand with the heave of his chest. His deep dimpled smile is full of arrogance as he reaches behind himself to lock the door.

Biting his lip, he stalks toward me, his hand going to the seam of his pants and the thickening bulge there.

"Are you sure you don't want me to touch you?" He whispers, untying the knot and slipping a hand inside. "Because I swear to God, that is all I have been wanting to do. Every single day from the moment you stepped in our bar and I smelled your perfect flavor from across the room."

"White wolf! Kill that monster!"
That roar stole my eighteenth birthday and shattered my world. My first shift should have been glory—blood turned blessing into shame. By dawn they'd branded me "cursed": cast out by my pack, abandoned by family, stripped of my nature. My father didn't defend me—he sent me to a forsaken island where wolfless outcasts were forged into weapons, forced to kill each other until only one could leave.
On that island I learned the darkest edges of humanity and how to bury terror in bone. Countless times I wanted to surrender—dive into the waves and never surface—but the accusing faces that haunted my dreams pushed me back toward something colder than survival: revenge. I escaped, and for three years I hid among humans, collecting secrets, learning to move like a shadow, sharpening patience into precision—becoming a blade.
Then, under a full moon, I touched a bleeding stranger—and my wolf returned with a violence that made me whole. Who was he? Why could he wake what I'd thought dead?
One thing I know: now is the time.
I have waited three years for this. I will make everyone who destroyed me pay—and take back everything that was stolen from me.

"Do you feel that, Wren? That pull between us?"
His eyes darken, flicking to my mouth.
"It's wrong. Your brother would slit my throat for just standing this close. But tell me, little bird" his breath ghosts my skin, "are you trembling because you hate me… or because you've wanted this just as much as I have?"
Wren thought she'd buried the chaos of New Orleans for good—the clubs, the blood-soaked loyalties, the men who lived and died by their kuttes. Seattle gave her everything she ever wanted: freedom, love, a future.
But one betrayal shatters it all.
Dragged home by tragedy, Wren finds herself under the watchful eye of Ezra Jax—the Raven Reapers MC's vice president and her brother's best friend. He's infuriating, dangerous, and far too tempting for a man she should never touch.
And the deeper Wren is pulled back into his world, the more she realizes nothing about her past—or about Ezra—is what she believed.
In the chaos of gang wars, mounting debts, and old betrayals, he becomes the one constant. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. And the more he pushes her away, the more lethal his pull becomes.
Because in this world, love isn't sweet.
It's brutal. Bloody.
And it's bound to break them both.
When loyalty is everything and love can cost your life, will Wren risk her heart on the one man she was never meant to love?
