After losing her parents, a date with her boyfriend goes terribly wrong when she finds her boyfriend cheating on her with a werewolf. He forces a bite on her, and 18-year old Layla Gibbous is forcefully removed from everything she once held dear and is tossed into a new life at a school for the wolves of the night, Alpine Crescent Academy. 

As she learns more about her new abilities, she feels like she is being watched from the shadows. When she keeps running into a mysterious and devilishly handsome man comes on campus, Layla can't help but get close to him. If he is the one in the shadows - is he here to protect her or hurt her? 

At the academy, she is taught more about the history and the two warring factions of wolves: Nestati and Vosak. Can she stay out of the fight? Or is something more at work here, like fate?

Alpine Crescent Academy

A sad smile touches Morwenna's lips, and I tilt my head in confusion when I see silver lining her lids. Her tears and her hopelessness seems so at odds with the setting that I find myself at a complete loss before my indignation rises again.

"How could you?" I seethe. "You were supposed to protect the academy and it's students. You - you were supposed to protect me. How could you send us to our deaths and bring demons here?"

Morwenna's face pinches. "Why" she says slowly. "Did you come to that conclusion?"

"Who else could have done this? When you have shown to be nothing more than a deceiver. You told me that you would help me - that you wanted to help me. And I believed you -" my voice cracks and I shake my head. "I believed every word, and I was a fool. You were the one who had a sigil placed on me that locked away my wolf, and you were the one who had me poisoned by wolfsbane."
