In an alternate El Paso, a virus has created man-eating beings known as Vampires. Cipriano Vargas is a transgender man who works for the Vampire Containment Initiative... on the weakest task force. The vast majority of his task force does not know he was born female. Much less why he really gets the nickname, Immolation-Man.

In the same task force, there is a Dhampir amongst them. He, too, is a trans man, but he is more open about it than Cipriano. Vega Salazar decided to join the VCI to study the virus and save humanity. His team does not know he is part-Vampire. Much less how and what he is doing to supposedly save humanity.

When Cipriano starts having feelings for Vega, it's up to the both of them to confront what happened in their pasts.

Cipriano thinks he can fix Vega.

Vega only wants to make Cipriano worse.
