It isn’t only werewolves that thrive in moonlight.

Jason Bosco thought life was difficult enough hiding that he was a werewolf. Being outed officially, but with the benefit of a monster friend to vouch for him for a visa, doesn’t change that everyone he knows looks at him differently now. Worse, he can’t be sure if a werewolf is what he is. But if not that, what? And what of the father he never knew, who disappeared one night in the wood behind his home in Elder Ridge?

It isn’t only werewolves that thrive in moonlight.

Jason Bosco thought life was difficult enough hiding that he was a werewolf. Being outed officially, but with the benefit of a monster friend to vouch for him for a visa, doesn’t change that everyone he knows looks at him differently now. Worse, he can’t be sure if a werewolf is what he is. But if not that, what? And what of the father he never knew, who disappeared one night in the wood behind his home in Elder Ridge?

Back there again to take time off after college to figure out who and what he is and what he wants from life, Jason’s one solace is that Ricky came with him. His… boyfriend? They’ve barely kissed. Still on the Monster Match app under a human profile, Jason now uses it to talk with his monster friends for advice, like Cael, the eldritch with a voice that can knock a person unconscious and a stare that might drive them insane. But if Cael found love and a place to belong, maybe Jason can too, and move forward with his quest to discover himself and to be with Ricky like he always wanted.

Ricky Ruas has always had a soft spot for monsters. He designed his physics major toward becoming a cosmologist, so he can study the portals and the differences between the human and monster realms. The more people understand, the more they can accept the strange and frightening. Like Ricky is trying to accept discovering that his best friend is a monster who has been in love with him for years.

Its still new, but when an opportunity presents itself to intern with some of the best monster realm scientists in Jason’s hometown, Ricky jumps at the chance to stay by his friend’s—boyfriend’s?—side so they can see where this relationship goes. No one ever said dating a monster didn’t come with complications, however, and sometimes with mysteries as intriguing as the monster realm itself.
