Lifestyle blogger Elena believes she has married Caleb, the perfect gentleman in every sense. Until their first wedding anniversary, when she checks her backyard Ring camera and witnesses her husband gracefully skin a “delivery driver”—a scaled creature from head to toe.
To her utter despair, she discovers she is no lucky ordinary girl. Instead, she is the harbinger of calamity hunted for centuries by Silver Dawn, the secret organization Caleb belongs to. Caleb married her not out of love, but for captivity and cultivation. He slips suppressors into her red wine every day and siphons her awakening energy through their kisses. He has been waiting for her full maturation, planning to cut open her chest and seize the world-remaking Primordial Heart with his own hands.
But Elena, a born predator, has begun to awaken. She decides to leverage her social media influencer identity to turn this premeditated murder into a globally livestreamed hunt—and her husband will be her first sacrifice.
