The Hunter's Moon - An MM Fantasy Romance of Curses and Mercy

Silas has trained his whole life to serve the Hunter's Guild. Monsters are threats. Threats are tracked, cornered, and killed. That is the code, and his first solo commission should be simple enough: travel to the mountain village of Oakhaven and end the beast terrorizing its people. But the evidence refuses to behave like a monster should. The creature hesitates before it kills. It leaves handprints beside claw marks. A child swears she saw it crying in the moonlight. When Silas finally comes face-to-face with the so-called beast, he finds not mindless savagery, but fear, intelligence, and a cursed man named Emrys who has been hunted for what the moon forces him to become. Emrys has spent years hiding from villagers, hunters, and his own body. Every full moon risks another transformation, another loss of control, another reason for the world to call him a monster. Silas should turn him over to the Guild. Instead, he begins to question everything he was taught. Forced into uneasy alliance, Silas and Emrys must search for the truth behind the curse before the Guild closes in and Oakhaven's fear turns deadly. In hidden caves, storm-dark forests, and the fragile warmth of a mountain refuge, suspicion becomes trust, and trust becomes something far more dangerous. Because saving Emrys may mean betraying the only life Silas has ever known. The Hunter's Moon is an MM fantasy romance of curses, mercy, monster-hunter tension, slow-burn trust, and the dangerous hope that even a beast may be worthy of love.

A hunter sworn to kill. A beast begging to die. A love that defies the natural order. Silas is a weapon of the Hunter's Guild. Disciplined, lethal, and unshakeable, he is sent on his first solo mission to the frozen peaks of Oakhaven. His orders are simple: find the creature slaughtering livestock and end its reign of terror. He tracks the monster to a ruined cabin deep in the wilderness, expecting a mindless killing machine. He finds Emrys . Emrys is not a monster by choice. Cursed, isolated, and fighting a losing war against the wolf-spirit bound to his blood, he has lived in exile to protect the innocent. When Silas breaks down his door, Emrys expects execution. Instead, he receives mercy. Unable to kill a man who weeps for his own violence, Silas makes a choice that brands him a traitor: he lowers his sword. Trapped together by a relentless blizzard, the hunter and the hunted forge a fragile alliance. As Silas tends to Emrys's wounds and Emrys teaches Silas the rhythms of the wild, their wary truce ignites into a passionate, forbidden bond. But the world outside their sanctuary is not so forgiving. The full moon is rising, promising a transformation Emrys can no longer control. And the Guild, suspicious of Silas's silence, has sent a purging force to burn the forest to ash. Silas must decide where his true loyalty lies: with the brotherhood that raised him, or with the "monster" who has stolen his heart. The Hunter's Moon is an atmospheric, high-stakes fantasy romance about the lines we cross for love. Featuring forced proximity, hurt/comfort, a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance, and a secret that will shake the foundations of the Guild.
