In a primal world that favors the strong and punishes the weak, Aria knew that her family's pack would not survive long when her father's health began to fail. Her fears come to life when the Intonat Nocte Pack attacks, demanding that they surrender or face a slow, painful death. Desperate to keep his family alive, Aria's father bends the knee and offers his loyalty- and his beautiful daughter- to the enemy. Although terrified of the infamously cruel Intonat Nocte Pack's alpha, Aria prepares to give her body and soul to this unknown man. As the final bargains are being struck, however, Fate decides that her life and her heart belong to another... Since a tragic attack at the age of five rendered him disfigured and unable to speak, Malik contented himself to a life in the shadows. Ashamed of what he'd become, he forsook his birthright to lead and instead honed himself into an infamously ruthless warrior, blackening his heart to mirror his monstrous appearance. Now serving as his younger brother's prized weapon, Malik strikes fear into the hearts of all who cross the Intonat Nocte Pack. And yet, when Fate ties his life to a young woman with a heart as beautiful as her appearance, Malik must step out of the shadows to claim her as his own. After a lifetime of loss, he will not allow anyone to steal her from him.

I have sat often in front of the computer, and stared long at the screen without ever writing a word. The synopsis for this project has haunted me since the first person asked me "So, what is it about?", and to this day I have never been able to deliver a straight answer. This book is about a number of things, many of which do not fit evenly into a succinct description. I have tried to make them fit and have found the resulting descriptions ill-representing and dull. Thus, I have decided to go without a description. This book will fade into obscurity no matter what I put here, so I might as well write what's really important. Winter in a city is an especially punishing time. This book comes out of my late nights and early mornings riding the train, and my looking at the window and being able to make out nothing but the blur of the glass. From the outside it may look dead, but certain people know that the inner workings of a city are a true marvel to behold. In writing this, I have tried to capture that marvel and deliver it to you, the reader. This is a book about a city and the people within it. The rest is up for you to read, if you so choose. Pyre lives on whether you experience it or not. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A science-fiction novel, updated whenever there is new material to post. The last cover was AI generated, so I spent some time making a crude cover of my own. For the sake of Wattpad I have divided up the chapters into parts, so everything under "The Glow" is Chapter 1 and so on. If you have read this far into the description, I thank you; you've made it further than mostly everyone before you. I hope you stick around. ⠀⠀

If you're a fan of the movies Animal House, Van Wilder, or The House Bunny, give this story a look.
