Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. 

To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna.

This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. 

Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. 

To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. 

Yet, they all have their eyes on her.

They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all.

Then Vera scoffed. "Oh, fuck off. That's complete bullshit."


Patrick barely had time to answer before she rounded on Joseph instead, fury blazing in her eyes. "I told you to bring back Noah. Fucking Noah! And you come back with some infected scum from the street? So how exactly is that my problem?"


Joseph didn't even say a word and simply reached into his jacket, pulled out a tablet, and activated the screen.


"Because…. " he turned the tablet toward her and pressed play.


The shaky recording showed the bus stop and the crowd watching the altercation between Ken and Noah. 


Vera's jaw tightened as Joseph fast-forwarded the clip, saying, "Watch closely."


The footage jumped to the moment one of the humans in the crowd laughed, cheering Noah on as he attacked Ken. 


Joseph slowed it down the moment Noah lunged and sank his teeth into the man's flesh as he screamed.
