As she navigates this new reality, Selene discovers that during her imprisonment, scientists have taken her daughter, Eve, born from her union with Michael Corvin, integrating both Vampire and Lycan genes.

With the help of David, a Vampire ally, and Detective Sebastian, a sympathetic human, she confronts the challenges posed by the new Lycan leader.
