As my post-transformation wolf form was tall, powerful, and strikingly beautiful, I had always been favored by my parents and cherished by the pack. Yet, during a journey with my brother, Gariel, I was betrayed, ambushed, and sold into an illegal mining camp on the frontier.

Your parents must be losing their minds by now.” Those words instantly extinguished the very last trace of hope I had left.
