Is this the story of how I died? No. Actually, it is the story of my rebirth. Long story short, I was betrayed by the people I thought I could trust. They invaded my sky palace, stole my women, and enslaved my pet shadow hounds. The emperor, fearful of my amassed power, killed my guards and destroyed me. Mana, the source of my previous power, brought me back in the body of a dying prisoner. I don’t know how or why. But I can tell you this much. Now that I’m back, I have revenge in mind.

Not everyone gets a second chance at life. Thrust into the body of a dying man, I fought to break free, made a few friends along the way, and started down the long and treacherous path of revenge. But things aren’t what I’d expected. Not all of the bad guys I’d set my sights on were actually bad, and the good guys…well, let’s just say it is complicated. The emperor, in his tyrannical quest for immortality and power, has sent his agents to the City of Bones. Why? Simple. The local lord, Tairon, had accumulated too much power, so it was time to clip his wings.

Allister is a combat healer, and a good one at that, capable of healing that which others cannot. In fact, he might even be the best in the entire kingdom. However, he didn't become so powerful by sheer luck or coincidence. Hiding a dark past full of horrors and torment, his already dangerous lifestyle as a Scourge Suppressor is about to become even more perilous. Thankfully, there is one glimmer of light breaking through the darkness.

Allister lost the love of his life once. He refuses to allow it again. The only problem is…to save her, he must become a monster. A real monster. But she isn’t the only one in danger. She isn’t the only one desperate for help. And he…isn’t the only monster. He isn’t the only monster hiding in plain sight. But he also doesn’t have to fight alone, not when his monster girl companion is always at his side. Not when she is there to teach him how to hunt, even as he teaches her to seem more human. But the craving to hunt is powerful, and he…has a lot of enemies to hunt.

Ty Roscoe and Luca Mitchell have moved beyond their rivalry in MMA, becoming more than just teammates. Now working together both in and out of the cage, they're focused on one common goal: making it to the Ultimate Fighting Championship. But their journey is about more than just achieving...
