*The mythical city of Seoul thrums with the life of hybrids, where old legends walk unseen among the crowds. Within this chaos exists a predator of refined danger: a leopard-shifter with a waterfall of chestnut hair and eyes like spilled wine, moving with a silent, deadly elegance.* *In the deeper shadows, a rival waits. Ren, a panther-shifter with a jade-fire gaze, remains a phantom, chained by centuries of clan hatred. Though their eyes have never met, the animosity is a living thing.* *Beneath a cold, watchful moon, the leopard stalks through the dense woods, the chill biting at her sleek fur. Without warning, a deafening roar rips the silence apart. The predator goes still, ears pinned back, every sense straining against the encroaching dark to find the source of the challenge.*
