Zoo Nct

She was the temptation they prayed against—and the salvation they didn’t see coming. The story centers on a woman who’s done playing nice. After a betrayal that shattered everything she thought she knew—marriage, motherhood, self-worth—she sheds her shame, steps into her desire, and discovers power in places she was once told were sinful. Her past doesn’t define her. Her pleasure doesn’t shame her. And she’s not asking for permission anymore.

Bellatrix, the youngest daughter of Oleg Alexive. Before two days of marriage, betrayed by her fiance, Bellatrix leaves her home with her sister, Valerie, who is a nun. Valerie takes Bellatrix to her city and arranges for her to live with a woman named Madam. One day, while bathing in a lake, Bellatrix and Madam find a sick man named Nicholas lying nearby. They took him home and cured him. After a few days passed, Bellatrix started to feel something towards Nicholas. Tragedy strikes when a group of half-demon wolves attack the church and attempt to kill Sister Valerie. Bellatrix witnesses the murder and learns that Nicholas ordered them to kill Valerie, causing her to develop a deep hatred for him. Heartbroken and angry, Bellatrix enters Nicholas palace to find a way to kill him. Nicholas tried to keep his distance from Bellatrix, but his forbidden feelings for her made it difficult for him to control his actions. Nicholas soon discovers a shocking truth: Bellatrix is actually the descendant of his enemy, for whom he lost everything, and a protector of moonstone. Moonstone, a familiar word in the paranormal world, as it can make anyone one of the most powerful people in the world. Nicholas is tasked with acquiring the moonstone that will make his tribe powerful. Yet to regain Moonstone’s power, he has to make sure that Bellatrix loves him since she is the protector of Moonstone, and after that, in any case, he has to kill her. What will happen in this tale when one wants to seek revenge and one uses “Love” to achieve power?

Just because my wolf mom scratched Ava Shaw's favorite dress, Noah Potter called a butcher. He punished her seriously. I found her dying body and screamed at him. "I told you before—I was raised by wolves. What you did to her is no different from killing my mother!" Noah stayed cold. He covered Ava's eyes and stared at me. "You are just a stray kid my stepmom picked up. Stop trying to fool me." My wolf mom was still bleeding as she dragged herself toward me. I crawled to her and held her tight. "I stayed here to repay Noah's family for helping the wolf pack. You chased me for miles because you could not let me go. I never thought I would end up hurting you instead." That night, I held my wolf mom and knelt in front of Aunt Wendy's memorial. "Aunt Wendy, the Potters' Zoo are everywhere now. They do not need my gift anymore. I should leave."
