Princess Laira, the rightful heir of the wolf clan, has her beast mark stolen by her adopted sister Selina. Misunderstood by her beloved Prince Leon, she is locked into the arena and humiliated. Enduring in silence and laying her plans, she uses the cage as a stepping stone to return to the center of power, publicly exposes the plot to steal her mark, and reclaims the wolf throne and her dignity — leaving the prince, who trusted the wrong person, to regret his folly.
