Princess Cassia is sent to the werewolf empire of Varyon as part of a peace treaty, where she is to marry Lord Darius. Although she is hopeful, she faces resentment from many werewolves. Cassia meets Darius and feels a connection, but her world is shaken when she learns that Darius will take Lady Selene as his primary wife, relegating Cassia to a lesser status. Heartbroken, Cassia confronts Darius, who prioritizes political alliances over love. 

 

As tensions rise, Cassia encounters Kael, the feared Alpha Prince, who initially mocks her but later shows unexpected protectiveness. Cassia begins to experience strange dreams and a growing bond with Kael, leading her to question her feelings for Darius. After being poisoned at a banquet—an act orchestrated by Selene—Cassia finds herself increasingly drawn to Kael, who acknowledges their mate bond but refuses to claim her. 

 

Cassia is framed for treason and exiled, but Kael secretly helps her escape. As they grow closer, Cassia discovers her hidden lineage as a Lumerian, a hybrid race with powerful abilities. The political landscape shifts dramatically when Darius and Selene seize power, leading to war. Cassia chooses to fight alongside Kael, fully awakening her powers and realizing her potential. 

 

As the conflict escalates, Cassia learns she is pregnant, and her child is tied to a prophecy that could change the supernatural world. The Forsaken One, an ancient enemy, threatens their existence, leading to a climactic battle. In a desperate act to protect her child, Cassia sacrifices herself, erasing her from history but leaving Kael and their child behind. 

 

Haunted by her absence, Kael becomes obsessed with finding a way to bring Cassia back. He learns of the Void, a realm where souls are trapped and performs a forbidden ritual to reach her. Meanwhile, their child’s powers grow uncontrollable, drawing fear and hostility from both humans and werewolves. 

 

In a final confrontation, Kael chooses to save Cassia over his child, and with their combined strength, they defeat the Forsaken One. After the battle, the family disappears from history, leaving behind a legacy that will be remembered as the legend of Cassia, the Last Lumerian, and Kael, the Alpha King who defied fate. Their child's future remains uncertain, holding the potential to shape the supernatural world.

Before I could get my maid to speak up, I heard heavy footsteps outside my chambers. My maid got up defensively, staring at the door as if she was expecting danger. 


I was concerned about how fragile she looked. 


''What is it?'' Just when I asked, the door of my chambers swung open, and Darius walked in. His eyes held a stare that made my knees weak. 


These evil werewolves had me right under their nose, I had better be careful out here. Maybe Kael was right after all. 


As soon as Darius entered my chamber, my maid knew to disappear instantly. In fact, I didn't even know when she left. 


All I know is that she was gone before I could signal her to keep an eye out for me because Darius looked scary now. 


''Do you like him? Hmm?'' Darius locked the door of my chambers and asked me that question. 


''Like whom?'' I replied, walking back as Darius slowly walked towards me, his eyes on me like a predator on its prey.
