I have lived my entire life fighting back against the monsters that have plagued this world. A deadly assassin and a member of the resistance, I only have one motto: kill or be killed. When The Damning commences - a fight to the death against the world's most brutal serial killers, assassins, and torturers - a twist of fate finds me as one of the competitors. Despite my initial reluctance, I find myself eagerly participating. But what I didn't count on, however, were the seven princes: Lupe, a Shifter descended from Wrath. Devlin, a Genie descended from Greed. Jax, a Vampire descended from Gluttony. Killian, an Incubus descended from Lust. Ryland, a Shadow descended from Pride. Sebastian, a Mage descended from Sloth. And, Dair, a Mermaid descended from Envy. Our love could never be. I'm an assassin, and they are my targets. But who ever said I needed to follow the rules? If only I can survive The Damning...
