Synopsis

In a remote town shrouded in mist and secrets, Lila Rawlins battles an encroaching curse that pulses through her veins, threatening to consume her in more ways than one. Haunted by the tragedies of her past—including the violent death of her father, a renowned hunter—she struggles to uphold a semblance of normalcy for her younger brother, Sam. But her life takes a terrifying turn when a desperate encounter leaves her drenched in blood and tangled in the shadows of a monstrous legacy. Drawn into the Hollow Woods, where ancient whispers of violence echo through gnarled branches and moonlit paths, Lila confronts truths she has long denied. Among them are the harrowing revelations of betrayal and guilt found in her father’s journal. This curse, it seems, was no divine punishment but born from humanity’s own hubris—an inheritance she cannot escape. Her journey into the woods brings her face-to-face with Elias, a commanding and enigmatic figure who challenges her power, her identity, and her resolve. Here, there is no room for weakness, as the pack looms, circling with predatory intent. Caught in a war between human hunters and feral beasts, Lila must navigate brutal trials to prove herself to the pack—or risk being torn apart by them. With every step deeper into this supernatural battleground, the line between human and monster blurs, forcing Lila to accept the formidable strength within her. Yet, this strength comes with a price: the expectation that she will lead a restless and bloodthirsty pack as its alpha, a role she neither wants nor feels prepared for. In a world where violence is currency and loyalties are forged in blood, Lila must embrace her darker instincts to protect what little remains of her family from the dangers closing in. As old betrayals resurface and truths shatter her beliefs, she faces a choice that will define her fate: Will she rise to claim the power that comes with the curse, or will she fall—devoured by the forces that seek to consume her? Lila’s story is one of resilience and transformation, where survival demands confronting the beast within the shadows and within herself.
