Ghosts and ethereal apparitions became her companions, while the looming specter of death itself held an unyielding presence in her life.

And then, the inexplicable occurred - her own figure materialized within the confines of her ominous predictions.

Determined to find answers, the small family decide to make their way to the Royal Pack to investigate. King Darius was raised with the constant reminder that his mate would be his doom. It was because of this that the unmated King issued a Royal Decree banning unmated women from entering the Royal Pack. Faced with this, the trio must find another way in to get their answers. Through their scheming to enter the Royal Pack, they unwittingly begin untangling a dangerous web of deceit and betrayal. Together with some unexpected allies, the three must race to unmask the mole within the Royal Pack, and hope the King believes them.
