« Compagne ! » Mes yeux se sont presque échappés de leur orbite lorsque je me suis brusquement redressée pour regarder l'homme qui était visiblement le roi. Ses yeux étaient bloqués sur les miens alors qu'il se rapprochait très vite. Oh non ! Voilà pourquoi je le trouvais familier : c'était le même homme que j'avais heurté il y a peu de temps. Et celui qui avait prétendu que j'étais sa compagne … Oh... PUTAIN ! Cinq ans après la chute du monde que nous connaissions, nous célébrons cet anniversaire dans un futur dystopique. Les lycanthropes, des créatures surnaturelles, ont pris le contrôle et rien ne sera plus comme avant. Les villes sont divisées en deux districts : le district humain et celui des loups. Les humains, réduits au statut de minorité, doivent une obéissance sans faille aux Lycans. Toute désobéissance à ces nouvelles règles est sévèrement punie en public. Pour Dylan, une jeune fille de dix-sept ans, la vie dans ce nouveau monde est un véritable cauchemar. Agée de douze ans lors de la prise de pouvoir des loups, elle a été à la fois témoin et victime de ces punitions. Depuis que les loups dominent le monde, être la compagne d'un d'entre eux est l'une des pires choses qui puissent arriver. Alors, que se passe-t-il lorsqu'elle découvre non seulement qu'elle est la compagne d'un lycan, mais que ce lycan est le plus célèbre et le plus brutal de tous ?
