My name is Jessie, and I was born a dhampir daughter of the Sweet coven. Hated and reviled by the ones in my life that should have loved me the most, they set about cleansing the dhampir part of my nature by stripping out my soul and replacing it with something else.
They didn’t know the something else was a demon.
Now I’m also a demon, and my life is finally starting to settle down. After surviving Anna’s attacks and Sarah learning her demon name, we finally have an opportunity to experience something normal.
Too bad life decided to hand me a bushel of lemons in the form of a heinously strong master vampire looking to visit and possibly move into our area. Someone strong enough to upend everything we have and cause problems for my father.
While he’s also a master vampire, he’s several levels below our visitor, and that’s never a good position to bargain from.
Is it possible to save my father, my friends, and my family while staying under the radar from someone that powerful? Can I even stop him from ransacking my father'''s collection of magical items without causing issues we might not survive?
I need to find the answer to that, because that bushel of lemons I mentioned is coming in an express delivery, and I’m all out of sugar and water.
Sometimes, when you’re faced with adversity, uncertainty, and fear, it becomes necessary to dig deep and discover who you really are. What you’re really capable of. Where stripping away the walls you’ve built inside to hold you at bay isn’t just necessary, it’s a requirement to survive.
Possibly even to the point of finding out that being the Demon of Pain isn’t enough to get the job done.
