During a night of festivities in District A, an Alpha from District D attacks without any preamble. They take lives, clothing, and the Alpha's daughter so no one else would fall victim to the Alpha. District D is a barren wasteland which is juxtaposed District A. Kalista, who is the daughter of the District A Alpha, is thrown into new surroundings in which she is far from comfortable. The District D members don't appreciate her because of where she comes from, and to make matters worse, her mate doesn't seem interested in her, either. One night a creature with glowing yellow eyes enters into her life and her dreams; havoc ultimately ensues.
