A deadly trial. A forbidden bond. A fight for survival where failure means death.
In a world where only the strongest earn the right to bond with fearsome direwolves, Meryn Cooper wants nothing to do with the elite warriors who rule from privilege. While they live in power and comfort, she is left struggling to keep her family afloat—until everything changes.
When her younger sister is taken across the border by the immortal enemies her people have fought for generations, Meryn has no choice. To save her, she must enter the very system she despises.
Thrown into the brutal Bonding Trials, Meryn faces months of relentless training inside a castle where weakness is punished and survival is never guaranteed. Her assigned direwolf is wild and uncooperative, her fellow trainees see her as easy prey, and her cold, unforgiving instructor is quick to exploit every mistake.
As rivalries grow and tensions rise, unexpected attention from the crown prince only makes her situation more dangerous. In a place where alliances shift and secrets lurk behind every door, Meryn must fight for her place—or risk losing everything.
Because here, it is simple: bond or bleed.
