A young woman abandoned as a baby at a local pack house is gifted to the king of the supernatural Kingdom of Midnight. Raised in servitude, and despite being a packless werewolf in a world ruled by vampires, she is determined to climb the ranks and establish her own legacy. Upon her twenty-first birthday, she gains her wolf and a disappointing but respectable position on the palace staff. When celebrating at a local masquerade party with her friend, she meets a mysterious man she can't seem to resist. When he declares his intention of making her his, she will do anything to keep what she has worked so hard to earn and the legacy she desires to leave behind. However, fate cares little for the plans of mortal minds, and the heart cares even less.
