Draeven has never known kindness. Raised in an orphanage where children are nothing more than tools to be shaped or discarded, he has learned to survive by staying quiet, working hard, and never asking questions. But survival is not enough—not when the overseers take children away in the night, never to return.
When rumors spread that another selection is coming, Draeven begins to understand the truth: his name is on the list.
Haunted by questions of identity and purpose, he faces a choice—remain in the shadows and accept his fate or risk everything to escape into a world that has never wanted him.
As he makes his move under the cover of darkness, Draeven knows one thing for certain:
No one is coming to save him.
If he wants to live, he’ll have to take that future for himself
