A wolf lord returns to reclaim his place among the powerful, but the world he left behind has changed and old enemies have grown stronger. As he navigates court intrigue and supernatural rivalries, he must decide how much of his humanity he is willing to sacrifice to take back what is his.
Thanks, friend! Tonight, my sons stand beside me. The wolf blood runs true in our house. For the silver blood! Die, wolf lord!
He's lost control! The curse has taken him! Seize the beast! I saved father, the assassin, I saved him. You tore a man apart in front of every lord in Northumbria, you call that saving.
Then ask them, who sent the assassin? By order of the council, the Firstborn's tainted blood endangers us all. Aldred is hereby exiled to the wades. The wolf curse dies with him. Father would never sign this!
Father is too weak to sign anything. I hold the seal now.
