## Resource

What happens when the wild wolf meets the concrete jungle and his survival instincts clash with modern society? Displaced Alpha Ford Caldwell finds himself starving in the heart of a city that doesn't understand his currency—or his nature. Gold nuggets are useless when you need a burger, and the refined laws of the forest don't apply when your stomach is screaming for sustenance in a grimy alleyway. Ford faces a harrowing choice between starvation and succumbing to the primal urges of the wolf within. As the city lights mock his desperation, he must confront what it truly means to survive when all his traditions and instincts are rendered obsolete. The lines between man and beast blur in a desperate act, leaving him with a shameful fullness and a stark realization: the city is changing him.
