A cat, a deer, a raven, a yellow lab, and a snake. What do all these animals have in common? In a world where those with soulmates are paired with an animalis - an animalistic creature that leads one to their soulmate - Virgil Esmund finds himself being led to four. It's very rare to have as many soulmates as he does, and he is considered lucky. The thing is, Virgil does not feel lucky. He feels cursed.

A cunning snake, a reclusive bat, a friendly Labrador, a clever owl, and a regal peacock. What do all of these animals have in common? Everyone is born with what is called a "soul spirit"; an animal you share your soul with. Alongside your soul spirit is your soulmate's soul spirit (only more ghostly) to help unite you with your soulmate. Poor Virgil has a fucking petting zoo on his hands.
