Ellie is a hybrid wolf-witch who grew up belonging to neither world — too magical for the pack, too wolfish for the witches. The pack’s unease curdled into cruelty, led by hot-headed alpha Mason while his steadier co-alpha Finn stood by and said nothing. At eighteen Ellie fled to her mother’s coven, and over seven years built herself into someone formidable — a fully realized hybrid who had made peace with her past. Or so she believed.
