Pain obliterates fear.

Amber Santiago is the youngest and the only pack warrior who’s survived the annihilation of the Great Santiago Clan twelve years ago, and the West Crescent Pack is now under the command of a new Alpha who’s taken her under his wing due to her tragic past.

Every year, the Werewolf King officiates an event—one that urges everyone to show how capable they are; a battle where strength, willpower, and mental toughness are being measured methodically. Amber plans to join the match as she enters the age of legality.

The task is simple.

Execute the person who’s named on the letter, and the Werewolf King will grant one of your wishes.

There’s no need to feel remorse because all of the listed names are death-row prisoners—criminals who have committed heinous crimes in their lives. The only catch is, both fighters won’t be given a handicap.

If you lose, you die.

Will Amber succeed on her way up? If she does, what could be her wish?

The Flower that Blooms in the Moonlight

"Freedom of expression ends where malfeasance begins," the Werewolf King representative said to all the other Alphas who were still present in the meeting hall.

It may be true that he's no Alpha by blood, still, he's qualified enough to represent the Werewolf King in many governmental affairs.

In other words, every judgment that he makes will be backed by Rego himself.

Therefore, it's important for representatives like him to be impartial at all times.

They were told before they assumed the position that their job didn't necessarily mean they stood above an Alpha. They were just normal werewolves with an exemplary educational background after all.

Hence, it's also vital that they're conscious of the limitations their job scope entails.

Alpha Reggie got ejected from the meeting due to the malicious comments that he made, and his inappropriate behavior.
