Selena, a hybrid werewolf, poured her family's entire crystal-mining empire into supporting her husband Marcus—only to catch him in bed with an Omega named Lily. She was schemed against by his entire family, had her contract dissolved, and was cast out into a rain-soaked slum. On the brink of death, she awakened her ancient pure-blood Lycan heritage. Dominic, the century-old Wolf King, swore to stand by her side. Armed with royal resources, Selena crushed her destitute ex-husband's family time and again at the Crystal Exhibition and the Ceremony of Contracts. Cornered and desperate, Lily kidnapped Selena's young son Leo at the ceremony and released a deadly toxic spore. Selena transformed into a silver wolf, saved her child, and was ultimately crowned as one of the dual monarchs. Marcus and his family were left with nothing but bitter regret and a wretched existence.
