Remshi has walked the earth for twenty thousand years. He believes he has witnessed everything the world can offer. Now he pursues Talulla, a werewolf he is convinced carries the soul of his ancient and only love. The Militi Christi, a religious order devoted to exterminating both vampires and werewolves, also seeks Talulla. These hunters will stop at nothing to complete their mission. Remshi finds Talulla, but their reunion brings danger rather than peace. The Militi Christi closes in on them both. Remshi and Talulla must unite their supernatural abilities to shield their families from destruction. An ancient prophecy hangs over their actions, demanding fulfillment. Their survival depends on whether two immortal enemies can become allies against a common threat that seeks to erase their kind from existence.
