Garrett Gibson, a self-taught magi and extremely rare necromancer, had sworn off the world of criatures after a tumultuous breakup with his daemon ex. A chance encounter with a Sanguim catches him off guard when he's grocery shopping, and in spite of his brush off, Alexandru continues to doggedly pursue him. Despite his reservations and their obvious rivalry, he ends up befriending the ancient Sanguim and over a three-year period he finds out that being friends or whatever with a notorious blood drinking undead criature can be extremely dangerous in every possible way.
