Darkness has descended on the Transylvanian Alps. Four packs of the powerful Grey wolves—in a rare show of cooperation—had joined together here in an effort to help their pack members find true mates. Then they were betrayed by one of their own—an Alpha hell-bent on becoming the most powerful of the Canis lupis. And though the wolf's assassination attempt on the currently-reigning Romanian Alpha failed, his plans to get Decebel, the Romanian Beta, out of the picture were coming together even as his treachery was discovered. The wolf fled, leaving destruction, death, and a missing mate behind him. Unbeknownst to the other packs, the wolf has employed a witch to finish the deadly job and help him gain another tool to increase his power.
