Adelina ist endlich an ihrem Ziel angelangt: Sie sitzt auf dem Thron von Kenettra. Ihre Herrschaft als Weiße Wölfin ist grausam. Erbarmungslos rächt sie sich an ihren Widersachern. Als jedoch eine Gefahr auftaucht, die das Leben aller Begabten bedroht, ist Adelina gezwungen, mit ihren Feinden zusammenzuarbeiten.
