A dream job in a millionaire’s villa on the French Riviera. A travel vlogger hired to document a life of luxury. But this paradise has a bloody secret, and the only thing starving more than the beast in the woods is her audience’s hunger for content.

Cassie James, known to her millions of followers as "Wandering Cass," has just landed the gig of a lifetime: house-sitting a modern, isolated mansion clinging to the cliffs above the Mediterranean. The stunning views and infinity pool are a goldmine for her channel, a fantasy of the luxe life she’s ready to deliver in high definition.

But the fantasy quickly curdles into a nightmare. Deep scratches mark the villa’s exterior. A chilling howl echoes from the hills at night—a sound the terrified locals refuse to acknowledge. And a gruesome discovery on her pristine patio proves she’s in the heart of a predator’s hunting ground.

When a cryptic warning about the Loup des Collines—the Wolf of the Hills—and a delivered silver bullet confirm her fears, Cassie realizes she's trapped in a conspiracy of silence, protected by a ruthless secret society of the wealthy elite. They aren’t just hiding a monster. They worship it.

Now, she's not just a witness; she's the next target. Attacked and infected, Cassie is plunged into a violent transformation, her humanity warring with a savage, new instinct. To survive, she must become the one thing she fears most and turn her camera into a weapon, exposing the truth to the world in one final, terrifying livestream.

Perfect for fans of fast-paced action horror and modern gothic thrillers, this novella is a bloody, high-stakes battle for survival where the only thing more dangerous than the monster is the conspiracy that protects it.
