(18+ for mature themes)
The Duskwalker pack is a dominant force, known for its fierce warriors and unyielding strength. Their shadowed territory mirrors their discipline and power. At their helm is the Alpha of Alphas, a cunning and formidable leader whose justice is as sharp as his strategy. Revered and feared, he embodies the loyalty and unity that define the Duskwalker pack, making them both a feared enemy and a steadfast ally.
The Bloodsands pack is divided and oppressed under Alpha Albin's harsh rule. The privileged Golden District thrives, while the Middle District struggles, and the Wastelands endure extreme hardship. Despite this, the exiled wolves are resilient, forming bonds of survival in the face of inequality.
One such wolf, Luciana, is the glue holding her family together, stepping into the role of both nurturer and protector in the absence of their mother and with a father lost to his vices. She exudes strength and resilience, often sacrificing her own needs to ensure her siblings are cared for and shielded from the chaos their father brings.
When Alpha Anton and the Duskwalkers invade, they upend everything and try to make peace with the wolves that occupy the Wastelands, but when Luciana's eyes meet Anton's, it changes her life forever. Caught between loyalty to her pack, the undeniable mate pull, and the twisting of her very own nature that all them experienced through their exile, Luciana must navigate a path littered with passion and impossible choices as two worlds collide.
