Blood of the Skaldir

In Alaska, in a cabin near the forest, you live your life. Your grandmother whispers tales to you of the Blood Mane, the ghost-wolf who hates all mankind. But your grandmother doesn't tell you the most important part... Ragnar, the pack's eldest warrior, once saved a human girl and loved her. Now, his granddaughter lives just a mile from the wolf border and their territory. And the summer you first step into the woods will be the last summer of peace between your worlds.

Blood of the Skaldir

Description

A dense taiga expanse where no roads lead. Satellites see nothing but virgin forest. The true territory of the pack is a system of shelters, meticulously camouflaged from human eyes. There is no mobile signal here. Only ancient spruces, frozen streams, and a silence broken only by the howl of a wolf. The pack lives by the hunt, strictly controlling animal populations, and occasionally making raids on human settlements for necessities. This is not savagery; it is a conscious choice of isolation, paid for in the blood of ancestors. Four hundred years ago, the pack's ancestors were slaughtered by hunters on the Night of Crimson Snow. Since then, the oath of the Blood Mane has remained unchanged: never trust a human. Alpha Lee Yong carries this burden as a sacred duty. His hatred for humanity is not blind rage, but a cold ideology forged by centuries of loss. But the world is changing. Humans are drawing closer to the borders of their territory, and the pack must decide whether to remain invisible ghosts of the forest or enter into open conflict. And then, there is you. A stranger on their land. And by the ancient laws of the pack, any uninvited guest is subject to destruction. Unless the Alpha decides otherwise.
