“I was left in the darkness...so the darkness is what I have become. It's who I am.” 


Devin Ross was abandoned when he was three, on the side of the road. His parents couldn't give less of a crap about him. They beat him, and abused him verbally and physically. They were disgusted at the sight of him. But, he was only three when they abandoned him, so how could he possibly remember? That's a secret that he keeps and guards for his life. Devin is immortal. He was found by a killer, known as Zoden. Zoden took him in and did something to him, something that would change his life forever. He changed him. Into a monster. He changed him into a killer. A killer with extreme capabilities to be even better at what he was known to do. Killing. Devin is was given the ability of mass murder, photographic memory, extreme memory. He could remember everyday, exactly what happened, and he remembered exactly what happened to him when he was abused and abandoned. He can also erase people's memory. Zoden controls him, and uses him as a slave. But, Devin is still free to make his own choices, but he can't break the rules Zoden has given him, because he is sired to Zoden. But there was one major thing Zoden took away from him when he took him in. Devin's humanity. Now, Zoden has created a monster. A monster that will do anything, and doesn't care.


But, when Devin meets a girl, named Julia Lockwood, something strange happens to him. His humanity is completely blocked out, but somehow, Julia sees past that, and feels something towards him. When a human feels something towards Devin, he is sired to kill them, and not feel anything back. But when Devin starts to feel something back, it starts to destroy him, unless he has enough power to fight back, and gain his humanity back. Julia falls for him, and will Devin just find himself falling for her to?

Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening.
