La guerre entre les vampires et les Lycans dure depuis une éternité, multipliant les victimes des deux côtés. Cela n'empêche pas la vampiresse Selene de s'être aliénée les deux clans, étant continuellement en fuite afin d'assurer sa sécurité. Lorsque le nouveau chef des loups-garous tente de trouver la fille de Selene pour utiliser son sang, cette dernière accepte à contrecoeur de rejoindre les vampires et d'entraîner leurs jeunes troupes. Tout ne se déroule pas comme prévu et une trahison est si vite arrivée, obligeant une fuite imprévue vers un refuge glacé situé au Nord.
