Gennie Valente's father forces her to recite and understand
the legend of the Chosen and Abandoned Ones at a very young
age, not giving her the love or attention most children
receive from their parents. For Gennie's graduation gift,
he gives her a trip to Russia to study the Lynx, a personal
dream of hers. However, her excitement dies when the reason
behind the gift is to payback the college loans and to
locate and convince a Chosen One, John Powell, to return
from his self-induced reclusive life to finish a contract
using his powers to save the world from evil. Disappointed,
Gennie understands her mission, but she has no intention of
missing out on the wild life opportunity while looking for
a man who doesn't want to be found.
After John Powell witness's his wife's betrayal and death,
he takes off to Russia to run from civilization and his
powers as a Chosen One. John refuses to use his powers,
except to occasionally burn off energy with a few women of
his choice. The group looking for John will never give up
until he fulfills his contract of seven years, but with the
danger of his powers and the danger he poses to others,
John has no choice but to stay away from all action. Gennie
Valente showing up in Russia to find and observe a family
of Lynx cats in the area changes everything. John is
instantly drawn to her, not by her outside beauty, but the
beauty that shines within her. Another betrayal threatens
his solitude and forces him into the life he wants and
needs to deny.

sees his one chance for redemption. He will stalk her,
