She only wanted a spark of light... but instead, she summoned the darkness.
When Lily accidentally calls upon Belial, a demon cloaked in shadows and temptation, her world is torn open. He isn't supposed to be here yet he answers anyway.

Because not all light is pure... and not all sin is dark.
And Lily is about to discover that some bargains are written in fire and paid for in blood.
