People always say that when you love something you should cherish it, hold onto it with everything you have, and protect it with your life. Although that's much easier said than done when you're thrown into an academy that is trying to murder you at every possible opportunity. Jake is a wolf shifter in line to become the alpha of a twisted, corrupted pack with a nasty secret, but when he gets thrown into a death sentence of an academy he meets up with a fiery little Valkyrie that shows him life is only as bleak as you make it. Belle, the Valkyrie with a dark past and feisty reputation, must now face another challenge of not only trying to survive herself, but to keep this handsome stranger's head on his shoulders after being thrown into a fight to survive with Jake who doesn't know the first thing about the "academy" he was forced to attend. Together they must fight to survive the trials and games thrown their way; not to mention the other students that wouldn't mind seeing their heads on a silver platter. Can love really overcome the sins of the past and tame the monster lurking inside, or are they just another pawn in the games of this twisted world?
