On a quiet night at the border, Wolf King Alexander found a tortured white wolf collapsed in the snow, barely clinging to life. As he gently wiped the blood and dirt from her face, something caught his eye — a golden totem hidden in her fur, a mark that could only be passed down through his own bloodline.
That totem belonged to only one wolf in the entire kingdom: his daughter, Princess Vivian. Three years earlier, Alexander had sent her away to marry the human Emperor Arthur, sealing an alliance between two very different worlds. He believed she was safe, honored, and living as an empress far from harm.
Then came the announcement that shattered everything he thought he knew. The human court declared that the Empress had just safely given birth to an heir. But if the tortured, broken wolf lying before him truly was Vivian, then the woman ruling beside Emperor Arthur — the one sending letters home in her name for three long years — was someone else entirely.
Wolf King Alexander now faces the most dangerous question of his reign: who has been wearing his daughter's face, living her life, and sitting on the throne meant for her? And how far will they go to keep the real Princess Vivian from ever reclaiming what's hers?
Refusing to wait for answers, Alexander gathers his most loyal wolves and marches toward the human empire — determined to expose the impostor, tear down every lie standing in his way, and see his daughter restored to the throne that was always hers.
