The Forgotten Fang

In the rain-slick alleys and crumbling warehouses of Chicago's forgotten districts, Riley Navarro claws her way through her nights. Once a street-smart thief with nothing to lose, now a newly embraced Gangrel, Riley must navigate the treacherous kindred society-a world of ancient rivalries, unspoken rules, and predators who see her as fresh meat or a pawn to claim.

Her feral instincts keep her alive, but survival isn't enough; Riley has to learn who to trust, how to hunt without drawing mortal eyes, and how to hold her own in a city that rewards cunning and punishes weakness. Every night tests her resolve as she grapples with her Beast, faces Kindred who'd just as soon break her as help her, and struggles to carve out a place she can call her own.

Torn between the savage freedom of her Gangrel blood and the crushing expectations of Kindred society, Riley's story is one of rage, loyalty, and the fragile hope that she can become more than what the night expects of her-if it doesn't devour her first.
