I’m a hunter.

​

But I don’t hunt the usual game you might find in forests—I hunt monsters.

​

For most of my adult life, I’ve imagined the moment I finally come across a certain vampire—the one who took my family from me and left me with a scar on my wrist in the shape of a bite.

​

All my kills are leading up to this one moment—the moment I end the bastard for good.

​

So when I find myself face to face with what I think is a vampire in the woods—one with the same eyes, the same long, black hair, and the same snarling fangs as the one all those years ago, I make my move.

​

But this monster won’t be taken down so easily.

​

It’s not long before I find myself in over my head because this is no ordinary vampire—this one can take the shape of mist just as quickly as he can shift into the form of a gargoyle.

​

Outmaneuvered and overpowered, I soon find myself in a position I swore I never would—as a prisoner.

​

And when the bloodsucking gargoyle offers me a compromise I can’t refuse?

Regardless, I pledge to myself that vengeance will still be mine...
