Nineteen Eighty-Four, often published as 1984, is a dystopian novel published in 1949 by English author George Orwell. The novel is set in Airstrip One, formerly Great Britain, a province of the superstate Oceania, whose residents are victims of perpetual war, omnipresent government surveillance and public manipulation. Oceania's political ideology, euphemistically named English Socialism (shortened to "Ingsoc" in Newspeak, the government's invented language that will replace English or Oldspeak) is enforced by the privileged, elite Inner Party. Via the "Thought Police", the Inner Party persecutes individualism and independent thinking, which are regarded as "thoughtcrimes".

He was brought up to be obedient, to service his Alpha and pack. The pack used him, his Alpha abused him, he was merely a toy to be played with and Toby took it all in without so much as a sound. But what happens when Toby's life is uplifted when his Alpha gets overthrown and a new leader stakes his claim? How will his obedience be seen with a new Alpha and pack? What exactly is Toby's purpose?
