President Donald Graves, a charismatic yet haunted leader, finds his destiny irrevocably altered on a fateful moonlit night at Camp David. In the Appalachian wilderness, he awaits Celeste Moreau—a mysterious, alluring figure whose forbidden allure masks a dark secret. Under the relentless gaze of the full moon, Celeste’s passion turns tragic as she transforms and, in a moment of desperate love and instinct, bites Graves. This bite awakens a latent, monstrous force within him, thrusting him into a brutal struggle between his human heart and the beast lurking beneath. As Graves grapples with feverish transformations and uncontrollable urges, a clandestine society known as the Lupine Order emerges, warning him that he is no longer merely human. Destined to be the first Alpha-born werewolf in over a century, Graves stands at a crossroads: to embrace his newfound power or to fight against the inevitable descent into savagery. Meanwhile, mysterious and gruesome killings plague the White House grounds, sparking high-stakes investigation by the FBI and escalating political chaos. Amid mounting supernatural disturbances, treacherous betrayals—including a shocking alliance between his closest confidant, David Holloway, and shadowy figures known as The Elders—Graves is forced into exile. In the searing crucible of a nation at war with itself, he rallies a motley alliance of rogue werewolves, steadfast military loyalists, and even Celeste, whose sacrifice reveals deeper, ancient motives behind her actions. As the full moon casts its silver light over a fractured Washington, and the Crimson Pack advances to seize power, Graves must choose: to surrender to the beast within and unite two clashing worlds, or to sacrifice himself to end the cycle of bloodshed. Just when the war seems at its climax, an ancient, sinister force reveals itself, leaving the fate of both humanity and its hidden guardians hanging in a perilous balance.

Kareem peered beyond his thoughts towards Kola, and tried to get a glimpse at his eyes in quest of his countenance. Perhaps, he had gotten his too and might even help. A fruitless thought upon conception, as he knew he couldn’t be helped, nor solicit same. The instructions had clear warnings of occultist discretion, and not even he had the cahones to disobey the lifeless ADELOVE. Consequences were still far reaching from the azure beyond to the clan of the living.   It was Kola’s turn to mount the stage and pay last verbal respects to the “exited icon”. He could be seen straightening his black jacket and clocking the whole congregation to maintain their attention. Making sure that everyone read the indifference on his face and hoping they would recognize-at-first-sight his readiness to harness the reins and charge-on the cavalry. It was his turn, and they had to identify that unquestionably, though he was convinced that it was well earned. Acquiescence was not what he sought after and he hoped they copied that too. Obedience was more like it. “ahem” he cleared his throat before bursting up in a cacophony of flames. The ground beneath him erupted while the roof above capitulated to accost it midair, with his ripping flesh in the middle providing enough lubrication, as his skin came apart to release the entire 5.5 liters of blood within. The force splattered shredded parts of his brain matter on the heavenly platters and sculptures on the altar of The House of Harvest church,Sheffield, United Kingdom. It was like a work of art. Kola Adelove has just been assassinated- at his father’s funeral!   ******************************************************************** All hell freezes over as the rubble of chaos doubled over. The secrets entrusted in the hands of the surviving Adelove kids are the bane of the conflict of this saga. The sacred and now disillusioned process of succession occurring to the tune of decisive shifts in economic patterns, national health, politics etc. Adeola stared in ready made horror as her brother, the new king, shredded into domestic meat sizes. He didn’t look surprised at all as the first blast corroded his slick funeral suit, merely indifferent. She remembers her father’s last words in that flickering moment, and a different knowing came upon her; one garnished with sorrow. The dynasty of blood thirsty hounds that feed on oil as edible as crunchy bones in a dubber-man's jaws had just taken a treacherous turn and she was right at the center of it. Time and time again, Ade-ola had found herself in muted situations. Noone seemed to notice her until after BGM’s death, but as per respect, that came after Kola’s demise. Perhaps because the keys to the kingdom was left in her care in the most unprecedented manner. Her instructions had been to never allow Kareem at the helm of the family business and especially finances. He was to be placed on a 7 figures salary, and allowances taken care of. She was the family’s accountant and she was also aware that all these would not sit well with the subject in question. Meanwhile, being queer in an industry of straights was a challenge that Kareem had to battle with, thus, he kept it a secret. A loud talker and party animal who has never missed a weekend outside and his reputation for being as ruthless as BGM was his weakness. He once had to cut himself deep with a scalpel knife in order to secure evidence before stabbing the angry bouncer in front of him. The proverbial black sheep and yet the most popular of the family, he was never fully shown the ropes of how the business works. His ego of course lit up as Ade-ola steps up to take charge and settle the chaos. She could handle what he couldn’t and that infuriated him the more. He devised a scheme to coup her out of power, starting with the killing of Kola’s killer. She caught unto him and threatened to leak his secret of being gay to the public if he wouldn’t back off. Who else knew that he was queer? He couldn’t tell. Her new boldness throws him off guard and he went on exile. Meanwhile, Ade-ola falls in love in a twisted scenario as she gradually learns how to behave like an Alpha male in a dangerous world of chauvinists . Her lover pushes her to become a domineering figure and command respect through deft maneuvers and terror, though he barely utters a word in the course of a day, especially in public. Being a taciturn man. Some serious power play begin to brew from the African oil mafia and this creates a distraction and old wounds begin to pry open as she discovers that she had a missing twin which was responsible for the complication in her name. Peruse the pieces of the puzzle and perhaps you will dive into a deeper realization of the machinations of the world. This could be a manual of understanding yourself, your role and place in the universe. BREAK INTO THE SYMPHONIES OF STACCATO…
