Nova Moon, former Omega of The Emerald Sun pack, she's battered and scared out of her mind. Her body is covered in scars, cuts, and bruises. She's afraid of love, and rejection especially now that she's an elemental. Will he accept her and then they'll work it out? Or will she run away, just like how she got there in the first place.The man roughly grabbed my arm making me wince, and I turned my head to face Genesis, Lyric, and Seven.

Millions of possible combinations . . . but only one is correct. Can you solve Torquemada's murder mystery?
