We all have our inner demons. The ones that tell us to do things. Things we might regret. That darkness looms in all of us, feeding off our emotions like an evil parasite. Wolves have this darkness inside them. For some, it grows so strong that they no longer can fight it off. The demons take control. This corruption comes in four stages. The first stage gives the wolf powers. Small ones, simple ones, yet it can lead to greater power. If they stay in a stage too long, they find it hard not to give into the dark. The third stage is one they fear. Blood becomes your water and madness becomes your food, as you can no longer control your own vessel. But the fourth stage is, nothing. Nothing at all. Your vessel is destroyed, and your soul is stuck, trapped in another plane of existence, never to return...

Ray is low on time, luck, and hope; his only chance is an artifact that may not even exist. But upon meeting Landon, Ray is beginning to believe he might find all four. ***** Cambions are doomed to tragedy. They are weak, sickly creatures that rarely live to see their twentieth year. Ray refuses to resign himself to that fate. Upon learning of the Crimson Sheath-an artifact capable of preserving his life-Ray is prepared to fight, steal, and kill to get his hands on it. He is not prepared for Landon. Landon is an orphan with no memories of his parents, the only inheritance left to him a dagger, sleeping in a crimson sheath. Though he has no love of bloodshed and no use for a dagger, Landon isn't about to let Ray take his only link to his forgotten history, even if that means following the cambion past the edge of the world and into the shadow beyond.
