Damien's life was forever changed after the car accident that killed his mother. He lost what’s most important to him and gained abilities he didn’t even want, never even wished for, and started a series of tragedies that led to him being unable to distinguish between what’s real and what’s not. From then on, uncontrollable, dark visions chased after his every waking moment, not letting him escape even in his dreams. Just when he thought he could finally get back to his old life, the ghost of a young girl puts him right onto the path of an arrogant and domineering ace police detective, Gunther Oliviera, who’s after a sick killer targeting young girls, bleeding them dry until they die. Gunther believes that Damien knows something and he’s just not telling. But how could Damien even tell the detective anything when he’s getting his information from the killer’s dead victims themselves? Damien’s not going to risk being brought back to the loony bin. But danger still finds him when someone from his past realizes he’s back and is determined to get revenge. In a race against time, Damien and Gunther must uncover the dark secret at the heart of their province, before it’s too late... Will Damien finally be able to face the path that fate had chosen for him, or will he choose to forge a new path and move forward, along with the darkness?

My name is Rayne and I've always been alone in life. Except for him… The Demon that watches me in the night. Reavers are ruthless, blood thirsty creatures. Disguised as distinguished gentlemen in suits and ties, the brothers will kill without rhyme or reason. Everything about them is made to attract you, make you forget that you should be fucking running the opposite direction. And it works. I live in the most powerful pack in the world. But even my Alpha is afraid of the brothers. The Reaver with eyes of molten gold, hunts me like it's a fucking game. He follows me, watches me in secret, and makes himself known if I do something he doesn't like… It's been 7 years since he laid his claim on me, but he should have let me fucking drown. He tries to control every aspect of my life, but I will do what I want, when I want, and I would like to see him try and fucking stop me. In fact, I'm counting on it… I refuse to be anyone's puppet. Not the Demon who watches me, not my Alpha's, and sure as fuck not the Demon's younger brother. I've heard the whispers. I know there's something different about me... But that gives exactly no one the right to think they fucking own me. How much am I willing to give up to prove that point? I ask myself this question, and then make a choice… A choice that nearly destroys me. Lucky for me, The Darkness would never let me face this trauma alone… With The Darkness on my side, I feel fucking invincible, and I'm going to go out of my way to make sure that everyone knows exactly where I fucking stand.
