It's been three months and six days since I walked out of the Nyiathan mansion and into this life. I wasn't always this person. I was kind, caring...good. Those days are gone. I've accepted it now, dealt with the demons. I know now that I can never be the man I once was. Instead, I've become that which the humans fear, a demon in my own right. I can feel the power of the magic in my bones, the darkness of it strong enough to take all of my light and swallow it whole. I close my eyes and push away the devil who threatens to consume me. For now. It is only a matter of time before the old Sam is lost. But until then, I will fight.

In daylight, the world seems like a happy place. Children play. Wives water their gardens. Husbands work on cars. The sun keeps evil at bay. At night, however, the demons come out to play. An unseen enemy hunts its victims under a cloak of shadows, targeting the weak and unfortunate, preying on the lost and forgotten. Masters of manipulation, the Sieks plant the seeds of sinful thoughts into the minds of humans and push them to do the unthinkable: murder, rape, suicide. The most unforgiveable acts. Without a protector, the human race would quickly lose a battle it didn't even know it was fighting. Kaida is Nyiathan, a refined warrior born to fight the very evils that plague the human world, to destroy the monsters living in their midst. Forced to hide behind a human facade during the day, she bides her time until the sun goes down and she can transform into the guardian that thrives beneath the surface of her disguise. When the Nyiathans discover that a human named Sam is being hunted by the Sieks, Kaida is nominated to act as his protector until his safety is secured. But as the story unfolds, the Nyiathans begin to realize that there is more to Sam than meets the eye. And when a formidable opponent from her past returns, Kaida must gather the strength to face him - even if it kills her."
