All he wants is to save himself from the baggage of a troubled past. But she just won’t stay away.

Eighteen years ago, Kevin’s parents were brutally murdered. Seventeen years after their death, Kevin is forced to watch helplessly as his fiancée is tortured to death.

Never fully recovering from the trauma, he moves into a new city, hoping to start his life anew, leaving his devastating past behind. But things didn’t go as planned. He did not expect to fall in love with Natasha—the daughter of a man hunting for his kind.

They soon discover the battered corpse of a missing detective assigned to investigate the murder of his fiancée several months ago. However, when the horror from his past returned, Kevin is forced to stay away from Natasha—or watch her fall victim to a ghoul who takes pleasure in tormenting him.

 “This footage was recorded several hours ago.” Catherina answered politely. “Precisely 9:45 am this morning.” 


 “A masked shifter?” Frank said in total disbelief. “This is going to be very difficult. How are we going to find him if we can’t place an ID on him? Mrs. Eulich was our best chance at finding these shifters and eliminating them, but now she is gone, what do we do?” 


 Scott appeared to be the only clueless individual in the room. He had not a single idea what was being discussed.
