NEW SUMMER 2025 | Twenty years ago, the world was flipped on its head by the emergence of Lycans. They existed only in legends and myths... until they didn't. Easily overtaken by the beings who possessed far superior strength and sharpened primordial instincts, the human race fell inferior, poverty-stricken, and was forced to watch as civilization gave way to a higher order. Those who weren't killed in the Emergence gathered in remote towns. This is where Aurora Dyer was raised, with only the faintest memories of life before the Lycans. However, even these isolated settlements could not outrun the Decree issued that fateful winter's eve: His Highness seeks a Bride. The search begins for a suitable mate, whatever the cost. Along with hundreds of other women, Aurora finds herself herded into a world clouded with unimaginable wealth, mystery and depth. As the selection for Her Highness begins, Aurora must not only confront the monster responsible for overtaking her life, but also prevent him from destroying what remains of it. // ONGOING Written by MaybeManhattan
