Amidst the world of lycanthropes, a legend emerges, one so primordial and enigmatic it transcends the very idea of what a werewolf is. Callista Wildthorn bears the aura of an indomitable spirit, defying the realm with her irrepressible tenacity, and an unwavering loyalty to a pack blinded to her worth.
Twelve months of treading the treacherous line of obedience have kept Callista from the brunt of retribution. Yet, the tides are threatening to turn as the Alpha's heir covets her as his destined Luna-her free will hanging by a thread.
Whispers of dread permeate the air, heralding the rise of a despot Alpha, his shadow looming over neighboring territories with carnivorous intent.
Callista scorns the fickle fears of the pack, convinced of her invincibility. But her defiance is put to the ultimate test when she's ensnared, consciousness waning, dragged to the abyss of the pines, the bite of the night's children at her throat.
