One mage: Bel Adams – part demon, gun shy about being rejected by one again, needs a familiar.

One familiar: Nico di Rossi – Army Ranger, needs a change of pace and a new purpose in life, is a golden retriever in human form (though not literally).

Plus one familiar: Garen Dallarosa – Secret Service, part gargoyle, needs his ex-lover Nico back.

One second chance – all for the taking.
