A jealous rival, corrupt pack leaders, and dangerous enemies will stop at nothing to keep the two apart, while Draven will burn the world down to protect the woman destined to stand beside him. Haunted by strange instincts, impossible visions, and terrifying discoveries about herself, Elena soon realizes she is far from ordinary. Every answer she uncovers only leads to darker mysteries, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about her past. As ancient powers begin to awaken, the line between human and supernatural starts to blur, revealing a destiny that could change the balance of every pack.
