Daemarkin: Demon's Vow

For as long as sixteen-year-old Zade can remember he’s dealt with the thing locked inside, another soul that can use his body . . . if he lets it.

As long as he stays away from the nearby villagers, he can control the soul’s strange powersâ€"and its hungerâ€"powers he needs to keep the encroaching creatures of the nether realm from finding the demon gate and destroying the valley where he lives.

But when Zade saves a village girl from monstrous wolves, he loses the one tool that aids his control: the villagers’ fear of him.

Now they won't leave him alone and his darker side is getting strongerâ€"a side hungry for blood, and it doesn’t care if that blood is demonic or human.
