Fire & Brimstone

Akuma had been pining after his coworker, Cara, for years. But just hours before the date of his dreams, he is brutally murdered by a pair of demons. Death offers him a rare choice: rest in peace, or return as a Reaper with a caveat: anyone who discovers his true name can enslave the last piece of his fractured soul.

Now a disfigured, masked specter, Akuma watches over Cara from the shadows to protect her and discovers a harrowing truth: his death wasn't random, and Cara is the next target.

Descended from an ancient bloodline of demon hunters known as Venators, Cara's parents honed her as a weapon throughout her childhood without the truth of her training or her lineage. She traded the sword for a nine to five at a prestigious corporation for normalcy. But since Akuma's death, she can't seem to shake the unwanted attention of another employee, move past her grief, or escape the demons that haunt her dreams and eventually-her reality.

As demons close in to destroy the veil between worlds, Akuma must free himself of his enslavement, and Cara must unlock her strength before they're both sacrificed to shatter the gates of Hell.
