Tasked with hunting the beast threatening her home, Poppy soon discovers a dark secret—the Wolf King was once a guardian like her, bound by an ancient curse tied to her own bloodline.

High above the mortal world, Ariadne lives alone in a tower touched by the stars. Her silver hair, glowing with ancient magic, is said to be cursed—never to be cut, never to be touched.

Cassian is a guardian from a forgotten realm, drawn by a prophecy and the shimmering strands that hold the key to awakening long-buried power. As Ariadne’s magic begins to stir, the truth unravels—she is not cursed, but chosen, a living bridge to the lost kingdom of Starna. And the tower that binds her is not a sanctuary, but a prison built to contain the magic threatening to tear the realms apart. With the stars falling and darkness rising, Ariadne must decide whether to sever her past… or embrace the magic woven into her very soul.

Her connection garners the love and admiration of all but one, the jealous queen, Seraphina.

They form an alliance and embark on a journey to reclaim her kingdom and free it from Seraphina’s tyrannical rule. But Seraphina’s malevolence knows no bounds, and she’ll stop at nothing to thwart Snow White’s plans.
