I’m the wolf they whisper about. The one born without a mark. The monster they should have killed when they had the chance.
In Brym Hollow, a mark on your neck means everything. It means belonging. It means pack. It means you’re not me.
I’ve spent my life as an outcast, prowling the edges of a wolf pack that barely tolerates my existence. They don’t know what I hide beneath the skin. The savage precision of my hunts, the wounds that heal impossibly fast, the senses that pick up secrets from miles away. My mother made me swear to stay invisible. To survive.
Then I found her manuscript hidden beneath my floorboards, and five words shattered everything I believed:
Your father is Lyrec Blackgrim.
A dragon. Which makes me a Draklycan — a bridge between two species that have hated each other for centuries. The weapon both sides would kill to control.
When Drucor, the sadistic dragon lord of Drakmount, captures me for his twisted breeding experiments, I discover the terrible truth about what I am. Draklycans aren’t just hybrids. We’re weapons. Monsters wearing skin. And every transformation pulls me deeper into a bloodlust I can barely control, an electric power that could level mountains, a hunger that craves violence and pleasure in equal measure.
Caught between Tyro’s protective devotion and Drucor’s brutal obsession, between the wolf pack that rejected me and the dragon kingdom that wants to use me, I’m running out of time. The madness whispers louder each day — the same madness that consumed Malakor, the legendary Draklycan who forced up the barrier between our worlds.
They say there are only three ways to kill a Draklycan.
I’m about to discover that sometimes the only way to save everyone you love is to become the monster they fear.
