Genesis of the Nightbound

For James Eliya Smith, life was supposed to be simple-school, work, trash-talking Michael over late-night games. Nothing supernatural, nothing dramatic... just normal teenage survival. But everything changed the night he walked home after another gaming session. One wrong turn. One shadow too fast to track. One creature straight out of a nightmare lunging for his throat. James survived by accident, pure dumb luck. But survival came with a price. The next morning, the world felt different. Sounds sharper. Colors richer. Heartbeat louder. Muscles humming with a strange, dangerous energy he couldn't explain. James had no idea yet... but that attack didn't just change him. It claimed him. From the moment fangs grazed his skin, his fate was sealed. He wasn't just James Smith anymore. He was becoming a werewolf. And the supernatural world was coming for him. — Description from novelcodex.org
