Jason and Sasha finally have a chance to be together even though every day could be their last. Complicating matters is Enipsigos, the only demon to survive the closing of the Shenyang portal, who harbors a dark secret about the couple that could impact their future as well as the future of the world. What will kill the Demon Hunters first, the radiation from the melted reactor or the Demon Spawn guarding it?
