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?

Looking at Amber now, it's plain to see that she's breathing hard. She's sweating more than usual, her gaze somewhat unsteady.

Clearly, her punches aren't going to work on Cataleya.

Yet, she still sticks to the fighting style that's ineffective!

Cataleya blocked him out of her head in an instant.

And there was no hesitation in her words when she said that. Amber got her so worked up that she refused to hold back.
