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.

She pointed at the panel. "What if we shock him? Give him a massive jolt, enough to wake him up. His body's been hijacked by those drugs, right? What if we override them and force his brain to reset?"


Ace's mouth fell open, then his face lit up with excitement. "That actually makes sense!" He rushed to the panel, eyes scanning the machinery like a man seeing treasure. "The drugs my mother gave him are chemical inhibitors. They suppress neural activity and disrupt his wolf bond. A high-voltage surge could flood his system, forcing his neurons to fire properly again."


"So," Violet said, "it's like jump-starting a dead battery. The drugs are the virus, and the electricity is the reboot."


"Oh, absolutely," Ace said, almost breathless. "Good thing Alaric's body is already adapted to channel lightning. If anyone can survive this, it's him." He face-palmed dramatically. "Why didn't I think of this earlier? Nice one, Oscar," he praised.
