Maria Christine lives life at the fringes of society as one of the Were, a race of beings from which legends of Vampires and Werewolves have been born. She calls herself a Vampire but instead of drinking blood, she feasts on the souls of humans. Like others of her kind, she has the ability shifts her shape into other creatures. Most of her kind can only assume one form other than their own. Maria is different, she can assume many other forms, though her favorite is that of a wolf.
Her kind calls themselves Feeders and Maria does her best to avoid contact with most of them, not wanting to be tied to any one Coven; however, her dark existence stealing life from strangers on the fringes of society will soon change. She soon finds herself on the run from a Warrior and Hunter team determined to kill her in an effort to wipe the scourge of her kind off the face of the Earth. She faces a choice, join a Coven and find protection from the Hunters or find a way to live life on her own terms. Through the struggle the only constant is her ever present hunger, driving her to feed.
