Esau doesn't deal with other demons, and he certainly doesn't deal with children—except apparently when they run in his home after being kidnapped. Esau has no idea what to do with the little girl, but he won't allow the demons after her to hurt her, even if it means he has to leave his home and make the one-week trek to the closest portal to the human realm.

Lazarus just wanted to visit his best friend in the human realm, so how did he end up saddled with a childhood friend he hasn't talked to in decades, plus a child? He can't abandon Esau and Cyarea, no matter how much he doesn't want the complications they bring in his life.

As the three of them travel toward the portal, circumstances bring them together. Will Esau and Lazarus manage to find Cyarea's parents? And whether they can or not, what will it mean for the feelings growing between them?
