"We're both cursed, in a way."
We all know the story of Kai Parker, but he once lived in a very different life. Do you ever wonder what that life looked like?

SCHOOL was starting again, and Mack was loosing her shit. It was the first time that the reality of Ben's death had truly dawned on her.
But not in the way you'd expect - she wasn't guilty, nor was she upset. No, she was anxious and terrified about people finding out what she had done. They would notice, after all - who doesn't show up for the first day of school when every student either wants to be them or fears them? There's no logical reason as to why Ben wouldn't be there, Mack thought.
Except he's dead, she thought.
Mack took a deep breath, composing herself as she pushed open the front door, shouting a goodbye to her dad before letting the door slam shut behind her. The rumble of Kai's car engine echoed in the chilly January morning air, Mack's breath forming a little cloud before her at how cold it really was. She reached the black Jeep, wrapping her fingers around the handle and pulling the door open.
"Nice car - I see you've really done a lot to it over the Chris holidays!" Mack drawled and Kai smirked.
"Thank you for noticing! I went to this new place - I think it's called something like 'my girlfriend is a raging bitch who turns into a werewolf' or something like that." Kai smiled brightly back, sarcasm dripping from their words like syrup. Mack shook her head with a little smile, rolling her eyes as she plugged her seatbelt and dumped her bag on the floor by her feet.
"Whatever." She laughed, smiling happily against Kai's lips as he pulled her in for a languid kiss.
"Good morning." He mumbled against her lips as he pulled back, voice still slightly rasping and making a small shiver rattle its way down her spine and straight there.
"Morning." She murmured back, barely aware of Kai's amused smirk as he figured out what happened.
"I'm warning you now, Malachai Parker - this month will be one hell of a ride." Mack mused.
"And why is that, Princess?" Kai asked with a sickly sweet grin.
"I thought I told you no to call me princess." Mack deadpanned and Kai smirked.
"And I thought I told you not to call me Malachai." He shot back and Mack huffed. "So why is this month going to be one 'hell of a ride'?" Kai asked again and Mack smirked at him this time, causing one of Kai's brows to shoot up.
"I was checking dates, and it turns out - the full moon isn't the only cycle you'll have to worry about this month." Mack grinned and Kai's eyes widened, a hollow groan emitting from his plump lips.
"They're happening at the same time?" His eyes bugged and Mack nodded, smugness plastered on her face.
