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.

"Shit," Micah muttered, rubbing his temple hard. His head was pounding like someone had taken a hammer to his skull. "That asshole."


"Micah?" Violet called immediately. "Are you okay? What just happened?"


Micah stumbled and Violet rushed to his side with unnatural speed, catching him before he could collapse onto the floor.


"You're completely wrung dry," Violet murmured. She could feel it. His energy reserves were practically nonexistent and the fact he leaned his entire body weight against her only confirmed it.


Unfortunately for Micah, Violet's caretaking only lasted two seconds. The next moment his weight vanished off her completely as Griffin casually grabbed him and hoisted him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. 


"Dude!" Micah barked in outrage, staring upside down at the world now. "What the hell?!"


Ignoring the complaint entirely, Griffin carried him across the throne room and dumped him onto one of the seats nearby.
