Kian Donovan has spent his entire life surviving through poverty and loneliness. Now, at age twenty one, he’s finally close to escaping it all with a college degree, a stable future and a girlfriend waiting for his proposal. Until a strange bird crashes through his window and calls him the Vessel. Hours later, Kian witnesses something impossible in a dark alley: A horned man with black and white wings feeding on pleasure with another man like a starving god. Rhydstorm Hellschild. One of Hell’s most feared Nephilim that was banished just because of it. The demon gives Kian a single command. “Kiss me.” Instead, Kian punches him in the face and runs away intending to leave it all but it becomes the beginning of his nightmare. Because mortals are not supposed to resist demons. And after that night, something changes for him. Demons become obsessed with his scent and werewolves hunt him for it. Worst of it all? The closer Kian gets to Rhydstorm, the more dangerous and tempting it is for the virgin. Rhydstorm claims they are suffering from an ancient curse that would kill them both. But Hell is built on lies, and the truth is far more terrifying for someone like Kian who doesn't know he was never a human in the first place. And Rhydstorm? He has been lying from the very beginning, Kian is actually his mate.
