In a world hidden from ordinary humans' eyes, a rift exists where supernatural beings, creatures of nightmares, reside. This realm remains shielded from prying eyes, accessible only to those captured and forced into servant training. Once inside, individuals are reprogrammed for absolute obedience and trained to fulfill their Master's every whim until they are deemed expendable. Escape is impossible. Madelyn Vagen lived her life blissfully unaware of this hidden world.

After a failed date, Madelyn's everyday life shatters, and she becomes a victim of this dark trade. Captured and stripped of her identity, she is prepared to be sold to the highest bidder. Her fate seems sealed until the royal family abruptly interrupts her auction. As she is thrust into a world of secrets, Madelyn uncovers truths she never imagined. She learns about her mother's past, follows in her footsteps, and is pulled into a life where she must navigate the treacherous waters of royal blood. Madelyn finds herself fighting for her own survival and those who cannot protect themselves.
