The Scarlett Wolf

In a dark and unforgiving forest, a young man named Ryder Hood, clad in a crimson cloak, roams the woods as both predator and prey. Ryder was once a kind-hearted boy, but years of betrayal and abandonment twisted his soul. Now, he preys on those foolish enough to enter his forest, using his cunning charm to lure travelers into deadly traps.

One day, a skilled hunter named Lila Greaves arrives in the forest, tasked with finding and slaying the infamous "Scarlet Wolf." However, she discovers that Ryder is not entirely the monster he's made out to be-his cruelty stems from a curse placed upon him by an ancient wolf spirit. The curse has tethered Ryder to the forest, feeding his rage and granting him terrifying abilities that make him half-human, half-wolf.

Lila must decide whether to end Ryder's reign of terror or try to break his curse. But Ryder, wary of betrayal, sees her as nothing more than another enemy. What ensues is a battle of wits and survival as their fates intertwine, forcing Ryder to confront his own humanity-or fully embrace the monster within.
