A tale of shadows, betrayal, and the fire that refuses to die.
Callista Shaw remembers nothing before the night she stumbled into Shadow Village-scarred, silent, and alone. Raised under the strict rule of the Elders, five revered warriors who guard the village's traditions, she was forbidden from becoming a hunter.
But when the legendary Guild Trial opens, Callista steps forward, determined to carve out her place-no matter the cost. As she faces brutal tests of strength, cunning, and will, strange things begin to stir within her. Shadows whisper. Visions flicker. And a wolf made of ember and dark waits for her in the depths of her dreams.
Passing the Trial should be her triumph-but it's only the beginning.
Secrets unravel. Loyalties break. And Callista is forced to confront the truth: her life has never been her own.
She was never meant to survive the Trial.
She was meant to change it.

For centuries, the Shadow Wars have raged beneath human eyes-a hidden war between creatures of the night and warriors sworn to stop them. On a blood-soaked battlefield, the last warrior of the Eclipse Order faces his destiny. He has slain his enemies. He has saved his people. But he cannot save her. His one true love dies in his arms, her blood staining the earth, her last breath stolen by the night. Before he can grieve, a figure steps from the mist-an ancient, ageless stranger wielding a blade forged from shadows. With one strike, he pierces the warrior's heart and whispers: "The long night... has only begun." Centuries later, the darkness stirs again in modern-day America. Whispers of cursed bloodlines, forbidden magic, and a prophecy written in ash awaken old powers and older enemies. The warrior has returned. So has the man who killed him. And so has she-but in this life, she doesn't remember him... or the love that damned them both. Will they rewrite their fate this time? Or will the night claim them all?
