Nayela was raised knowing she would lead her tribe one day. The day of her first blood. The day she becomes a woman. What she doesn't know is that the tribe's leader, her father, has been keeping a  secret since the day she was born. A secret that could kill her.
 

After discovering the truth about a witch's curse foretelling of her gruesome death, Nayela sets out to make her own fate. But powerful, ancient magic, and the long, sharp fangs of the feral beast thirsty for her blood, are not so easy to escape.
