"In a world where supernatural beings live side by side, a boy’s search for belonging uncovers truths he never imagined."

When Alex’s mother is kidnapped, his ordinary life shatters, revealing a hidden world of werewolves, vampires, witches, and werecats. Rescued by the enigmatic Jason, Alex learns of his werewolf heritage and is sent to an elite academy where these factions coexist under an uneasy truce.

Thrown into this unfamiliar world, Alex struggles to fit in while forming bonds with those who challenge his perception of loyalty and trust. But beneath the academy’s strict rules lies an undercurrent of tension as old prejudices simmer and alliances are tested. As Alex navigates his new reality, he must come to terms with who he is and the responsibility that comes with it.

A MIX OF TWO WORLDS

The tension in the academy had been mounting for days. Whispers of the upcoming Trials had infiltrated every corner of the school, from the dining hall to the dorm towers. For Alex, however, the gravity of the situation had hit much earlier—when Tanaka had chosen him in front of the wolves. There had been no room for argument, no option to refuse. It was an order from his Alpha, and to decline would have been unthinkable. 


Now, standing among the gathered students in the Grand Hall, Alex couldn’t shake his unease. He was surrounded by his friends: Sean, Sara, Kira, and William. The banners of the factions—wolves, witches, vampires, and werecats—hung proudly above them, vibrant symbols of rivalry and unity. 


At the podium stood Headmistress Katherine Hawthorne, her piercing gaze sweeping over the assembled crowd. When she spoke, her voice carried the weight of tradition and expectation.
