There was was a girl named Emily who lived in a tiny town. She was charming, intelligent, and gorgeous, but she also had a long-kept secret. Every full moon, Emily would change into a horrifying monster due to a unique illness.

One day, Emily met a handsome and charming man named Michael. They fell deeply in love, and Michael asked Emily to marry him. Emily was thrilled, but she knew that she could never reveal her secret to Michael. She was terrified that he would be disgusted by her true form and leave her forever.


As the wedding day approached, Emily became increasingly anxious. She knew that she couldn't keep her secret forever, but she didn't know how to tell Michael. On the night of the full moon, Emily transformed into her monstrous form and ran into the woods to hide.

Michael, worried about Emily's disappearance, went searching for her in the woods. He stumbled upon her in her monstrous form, but instead of being disgusted, he was amazed by her beauty. He saw past her appearance and loved her even more.

From that day on, Emily and Michael were inseparable. Michael was determined to find a cure for Emily's condition so that she would never have to transform into a monster again. They traveled the world together, searching for a cure, but they were unsuccessful.

Years passed, and Emily's condition worsened. She began to transform into a monster more frequently, and she was losing hope that she would ever find a cure. One night, as she transformed into her monstrous form, she lost control and attacked Michael.

Emily was horrified by what she had done, and she knew that she could never forgive herself. She fled into the night, never to be seen again.

Michael was heartbroken by Emily's disappearance, but he never gave up hope that she would return. He searched for her for years, but he was never able to find her.

One night, as Michael was walking home from a late shift at work, he heard a strange noise coming from the woods. He cautiously followed the sound until he stumbled upon a small cabin in the middle of the woods. The door was slightly ajar, and he could hear strange noises coming from inside.

With his heart racing, Michael pushed open the door and stepped inside. The room was dark, and he could barely see anything, but he could hear something breathing in the corner of the room.

As his eyes adjusted to the darkness, Michael realized that the creature in the corner of the room was Emily. She was alive, but she had transformed into a monster permanently.

Michael was horrified, but he was also overjoyed to see Emily again. He embraced her, and they both wept tears of joy and sadness. Michael knew that he could never leave Emily again, and they spent the rest of their lives together in the small cabin in the woods.

However, the townspeople would soon become suspicious of Michael's disappearance and rumors started to spread of Emily's possible involvement. One day, a group of villagers decided to investigate the cabin in the woods, and what they found inside would haunt them forever.

As they entered the cabin, they found the remains of several missing townspeople, torn apart and scattered across the room. They also found Emily and Michael's remains, still locked in an embrace, but with a look of terror frozen on their faces.

The residents of the village were appalled by what they discovered, and they set fire to the cabin in an effort to destroy any evidence of the horrors that had occurred there. Nonetheless, the town would continue to be plagued by the memories of Emily and Michael's tragic love story for years to come...
