UNKNOWN

A fierce huntress sworn to protect her village. A cursed dire wolf bound by a dark past. And an ancient curse that ties their fates together.

In the heart of the Enchanted Woodlands, where shadows prowl and magic reigns, Poppy is no ordinary girl. Trained by her warrior grandmother, she is the protector of her village, armed with a bow, a sharp mind, and a cloak as red as blood—an heirloom granting her untold power. But when a new terror rises, a fearsome dire wolf known as the Wolf King, Poppy must confront a danger greater than she ever imagined.

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. Now, Poppy faces an impossible choice—kill the beast and save her people, or break the curse and risk the wrath of the village she has sworn to protect.

With the fate of both worlds hanging in the balance, Poppy must decide what kind of huntress she truly is.
