Terrence is being pulled into a war he wants nothing to do with. He has a choice to make—follow his alpha's orders and do the wrong thing or help the dragons and put himself and his family in danger.

Donahue doesn't know what to think when Terrence lands in front of the clan house and asks to talk to Elijah, but he protects him from the dragons who want to hurt him because of what he is. Luckily, Elijah is a good alpha, and in exchange for information, he agrees to take Terrence and his family in.

But Irwin leads the cockatrice clan with an iron fist, and he doesn't take nicely to four of his people running to the dragons. The dragons need to find allies, and fast. If they can't, Terrence and Donahue stand to lose their families.

And each other.
