In the realm of Helirica, where the moon casts its silvery glow over a land ravaged by war and shadowed by fear, Prince Cain stands as a beacon of hope amidst the darkness. For three long years, his kingdom has endured the relentless onslaught of the wendigos, their insatiable hunger driving them to consume all in their path. Desperate to save his people from the brink of destruction, Cain turns to the ancient guides, seeking a path to power that will change the course of fate. Guided by the whispers of the guides, Cain learns of a forbidden ritual that promises to grant him the strength he needs to defeat the wendigos once and for all. But the price of such power is steep—it requires him to bind his soul to a being of greater strength, the Lord of vampires, and to forsake his destined mate, a normal female werewolf. Faced with the impossible choice between duty and desire, Cain reluctantly agrees to the blood ritual, knowing that the consequences may be more than he can bear.
