Seventeen-year-old Lynn believes she is perfectly ordinary, desperate to maintain the comforting monotony of her life—school, her parents' predictable routines, the familiar smell of bacon and coffee. But every night, she is tormented by vicious, otherworldly nightmares. She doesn't just see these horrors; she feels them. The raw, primal fear of the shadows that twist in a cold, alien space is a palpable tide washing over her, and her own hands feel electric, powerful, and strangely connected to the terror. These are not dreams. They are the first tendrils of the Hollowing, a malevolent, ancient entity that has fractured into our reality. It is a living storm of consumed agony and hungry despair that feeds on human terror. To cultivate the fear it needs to survive, it broadcasts nightmares into the world, seeking not just victims, but a powerful conduit to amplify its signal. Lynn is that conduit. Unbeknownst to her, she is a Receiver, a psychic empath uniquely attuned to the frequencies of emotion. The Hollowing has chosen her to be its unwitting instrument, using her abilities to shape its nightmares into reality and unleash panic upon her town. As the line between her waking life and dreaming world blurs, she begins to witness flashes of coming disasters—a car crash, a school fire, a sinking ferry—moments before they happen, each event saturated with the Caught between the oppressive normality her mother fiercely guards and the terrifying truth a mysterious stranger reveals, Lynn must embark on a dangerous journey of self-discovery. This stranger, part of a secret network of individuals who sense the world's deeper currents, reveals the horrifying truth: the Hollowing is real, it is feeding, and she is the key to stopping it. To defeat it, she cannot shut her abilities down; she must learn to control them, to weaponize the very empathy that makes her vulnerable. Lynn must race against time to master her burgeoning power and interpret the cryptic warnings in her visions. But the Hollowing is not her only enemy. Its influence spreads, twisting ordinary people into vessels of paranoia and violence. To save her family and her world, this "normal girl" must embrace the extraordinary power within her, confront the source of the fear that haunts her dreams, and face a devastating choice: sever her connection to the Hollowing entirely, or channel its own horrific energy back against it in a battle that could cost her her humanity.

Cyndra spent most of her life wondering why did it had to be her? She keeps asking the Moon Goddess why did she even grant her the power when she can’t even use it? For Cyndra, what she has was not a gift but a curse she had to keep running away from. And now, someone found her and all she could do was submit or her life would be in danger, just like how it did when she was little. Growing up, Clyden had always been keen to making sure that his pack would always come first. No matter how hard the circumstances may present, he would always find a way to make sure that his people are well taken care of. When he finally turned eighteen, everyone thought he would find his better half, but ten years has passed and Clyden had already given up on finding her. He grew up fierce and stern. His decisions are always regarded by many and as his pack rises to power, so does the problems he encounters. The world has already accepted that aside from human beings, other supernatural creatures have risen and lived amongst them. As everyone wanted peace, a union and understanding was made amongst all creatures to which, no one is allowed to harm each other and to always follow the law set by the leaders of different species. Peace among creatures of the dark and the human race were maintained and everyone was free to live a life as normal and they could. But then again, peace is just overrated. One would always crave for greater power. A type of power that inflicts fear, a type of power that is equally dangerous for the human kind and those of who are immortal.
