Under the Veil of Night
In the City of Crime, one law stands above them all: Only the strongest can live. Fighting is normal, extortion is common, and death is inevitable. Born into a wealthy family yet forced to live in poverty, Kanae Nali vowed to become strong enough to take back what rightfully belonged to her—even if it meant that she had to face the consequences and brave the dangers lurking in every corner. Yet on the outside, just like her mysterious peers, she was no different from the other high school students living their lives to the fullest. “Under the ray of light, my ability will only make me die faster. Under the veil of night, my ability allows me to survive longer.” ____ Story set in fictional city. Any similarities with real world's event is purely coincidence.

Attack in Jason Wells’ Residence
Jason looked at Laura with a wry smile. In the restaurant, this girl didn't hold back at all and attacked the sweets with everything she got. This caused him to wonder whether she could eat them all or not.
"Next time, I'll limit your sweets intake."
"Come on, Brother Jason, I love them!" Laura whined. Jason had stopped her to eat the last portion of her cheesecake, making her annoyed.
"You're going to get fat."
Laura's face darkened. "I'm not fat!"
"Not yet!"
"Meanie!" Laura pursed her lips and crossed her arm. One of the things that she enjoyed the most was eating sweets, which was the very reason she decided to make sweet company. Their diversity in taste always made her felt giddy, especially when the chocolate melted in her mouth.
The thought alone caused her to be hungry again.
