Tegan
My name is Tegan Reynolds, and I am seriously regretting my life
choices at the moment.
I couldn’t confide in any of the ladies who had been staying at this
glamped-up campsite with me for the last four weeks. We were contestants
on Moonlight Mates, a shifter dating reality show where we vied to be
chosen by an alpha beast.
Competition for Gideon Silverclaw, billionaire wolf shifter, was
cutthroat. And tonight, he was slated to give away his final rose.
The excitement around the set was palpable. My fellow contestants had
spent the day getting right with the universe and making themselves the
most desirable Beastlerette.
I couldn’t believe I was still counted in the ranks of that groan-worthy
title. Not only was I forty-one and way too fluffy to be stuffed into this
glorified prom gown, but Gideon Silverclaw was the wolf I’d come here to
expose.
Did I expect some sort of enemies-to-lovers fairy tale where the lovable,
imperfect heroine reformed the big bad wolf? Hell no. My mission was
simple: use the notoriety and the money I made from the show to stop
Gideon in his wolf tracks. I’d use my fifteen minutes of fame to expose him
for exploiting packs and stealing their land.
I had all the time in the world to pursue this mission after I was fired
from Gideon’s company, Wild Adventures, for uncovering his plan to extort
local shifters out of the land their packs had lived on for generations.
But the joke was on me when he showed up as this season’s Moonlight
Beast. He’d pretended he had no idea who I was, after we’d worked
together for the last five years. When I tried to alert production, they told
me it had to be a case of mistaken identity. Like I didn’t know who I
worked with for the last three years. They insisted that lots of Beastlerettes
had nerves once their episode started.
Okay, fine. I decided I’d go through with it because maybe I’d get the
piece of information that would blow my case wild open. It made filming
awkward, because it took everything I had not to confront him on camera.
Plus, with a half-dozen eligible Beastlerettes within earshot at any
moment, anything I said could and would be used against me.
The whole time I’d been on this show, I’d pretended to be something I
wasn’t. That ended tonight.
The spotlight clicked on, and show host Larrie Winslow strode on toohigh heels to the center of the stage. Those were risky on a good day, but
tonight, she’d broken into the champagne and started celebrating early.
A gasp radiated from my fellow contestants as Larrie turned her ankle
and fell into the moon shaped pool of light.
“Even I get nervous on nights like this.” She chuckled as the production
assistants rushed to help her up. She adjusted the column skirt of her dress.
“That will be edited out, right?”
“Of course, that’s why we don’t actually film live,” one of the producers
assured her. “Everything will look like a fairy tale, because that’s what this
is. Right, Beastlerettes?”
