Monster hunters are a necessary evil in a world plagued with tears to hell and other forsaken realms. Matt is one such hunter, as hated and feared as the monsters he slays. However, after burying his best friend, the man he loved, Matt returns to his rooms to find an unwanted visitor, an emaciated incubus, intruding on his home. Trapped and starved for eons, Sylvan finally manages to escape his indifferent captor and flee hell. In his hunger, he is drawn toward the loneliness emanating from a single human, Matt. Despite Sylvan's hideous, wasted appearance, this man cares for Sylvan and fearlessly allows him to feed.  Though natural enemies, Matt and Sylvan are drawn to one another through loneliness and desperation. However, when Sylvan's captor comes to collect him, Matt realizes how much he is willing to risk to save this demon.
