In a world ruled by Lycans and defined by brutal hierarchies, Gwen and her son Halius flee a past marred by rebellion and death. Seeking refuge in the Newaygo Territory, Gwen's survival depends on a politically arranged marriage to a Prime Beta-and the abandonment of her moral compass. As Halius struggles under his mother's cruelty and a society that enslaves magical Azure, buried secrets and divine forces stir beneath the surface. Haunted by forgotten lifetimes and watched by gods with unfinished plans, the fate of the world may rest on a boy determined to resist the system-and a mother torn between survival and redemption.
