I see the bad moon arising.
I see trouble on the way.
I see earthquakes and lightnin'.
I see those bad times today.
Don't go around tonight,
Well it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.
Bad Moon Rising
The events of the Bonfire Party left their mark on the University of Astoria and many of its students. With the sudden plunge into a world of supernatural predators, the small Astoria pack has seen death aplenty: that of their enemies, and of their closest friends. Though their survival was sometimes in doubt, the Astoria pack made it through the autumn, and have settled into their territory with winter's arrival.
Now, Christmas is past, and the University returns to classes for its Winter Term. And while it seems that Volk's pack have retreated to their territory to lick their wounds and prepare for the worst, it's clear there is a new threat in town: the family of hunters known as the Monks. Their desire to keep Astoria free of werewolves was so strong that even the powerful alpha Volk tried to keep them happy. What happens now when they turn their fanatical, violent attention toward the Astoria pack itself? And why exactly are they so intent on keeping Astoria wolf-free?
