Deep within the enchanted woods surrounding the supernatural town of Willowbrook, a strange and unsettling discovery sets a young wolf shifter named Luca on a path that will change his life forever. The son of the local pack's Alpha, Luca stumbles upon a beautiful young man lying in an unnatural slumber, his body trapped in a state of suspended animation.

Haunted by the mysterious sleeper's plight, Luca brings him back to the pack, desperate for answers. The pack's Elder, a wise and enigmatic seer, reveals that the young man is Rowan, a fae prince ensnared by a sinister curse cast by the malevolent entity known only as the Deal Maker. Entrusting Luca with a cryptic magical amulet, the Elder sends him on a perilous quest to unravel the secrets of the curse and save the sleeping prince.
