Ethan Blackwood was an ordinary young businessman. At least he was until, during a trip, he found himself involved in an event that defied all logic he knew. Unwillingly and unexpectedly, he becomes entangled with supernatural beings, and to make matters worse, he has to deal with a demon inside his body! Now, he must become stronger if he wants to survive the challenges ahead. Will Ethan, with his new abilities, be able to survive the new challenges involving gods and demons?
Rashaad tried to scream, to hurl some insult or threat, but the words choked in his throat. Every time he tried to move, he felt as if shadows were holding him back; however, that wasn't the case.
