Every thousand years, a hunter's moon bleeds the night sky with crimson and breathes a Primordial. The one chosen as a fated mate is given to a wolf king to take it. That kingdom enjoys vast prestige, solidifying it as a dominion of power. This time, fate does something unexpected and the one chosen does not bend nor relent. This time, the one chosen comes to make that kingdom repent.
The thousand years have begun. The white wolf queen has come, and the hunt is on to get her.
The primordial hunter's moon turns the kingdoms into a power-hungry frenzy as two rival wolf kings hunt Ashina. The most powerful wolf, King Alaric, is chosen as her fated mate. As the kingdoms war against one another, Ashina does the unthinkable and breaks the eternal fate bond with the help of a seer. This puts the humans on the brink of destruction at the hands of the brutal wolves.
As all-out war becomes inevitable, Alaric will not allow her to break the fated bond, and Ashina would rather walk alone than be tethered to a power-hungry mate. But Alaric has a dark secret, and even as the rival wolf king Cayden calls her, Ashina must follow her heart or rebel against Alaric's whole kingdom. If she follows her heart, humans will fall, and she will fall with them.
