On a desolate island, the relentless hunter known as "the man in the woods" stalks his prey: the contestants of a twisted reality show and its host, Chris McLean. His mission is a blood-soaked vendetta for their trespass on his domain. One night, while tracking a victim, he is frozen in place by an impossible sight. A strange, beautiful woman named Marcy, with long black hair and eyes like a midnight storm, is watching him from the shadows. His wolves, without any command, surround her not as prey, but as loyal protectors, as if she were their true master.
Marcy, clutching her small, pregnant stomach, sees a kindred spirit in the masked killer. She is no longer the shy, vulnerable girl she once was. Having survived a horrific kidnapping and a forced relationship with her rapist-a man she was manipulated into loving before finally killing him in a desperate act of survival-Marcy has become a predator herself. She now hunts those who inflict pain, driven by a deep-seated trauma, abandonment issues, and the scars of Stockholm syndrome. As she watches the killer, she feels an undeniable connection; they are two broken, evil souls, misunderstood and forged into monsters by a cruel world that believes God has forsaken them.
The spell is broken when the killer realizes his target is escaping. He whistles for his wolves, and when he glances back, Marcy has vanished as mysteriously as she appeared. Alone again, he removes his mask, revealing a handsome but weary face with messy, wolf-cut black hair. For the first time, the broken sociopath is drowning in unfamiliar emotions. He is left to grapple with a single, tormenting question: is Marcy just another contestant to be added to his list, or is she someone just like him-a damned soul seeking a redemption he stubbornly believes can never exist?
