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.

He Knows
"Why are they here?" Tommy finally found his voice again.
"Their parents insist to have them get more involved with the matter of the clan. Since Alice is Boss's fiancée, Boss didn't have any other choice but to accept. As for Celine, you better not ask."
Neo's face turned sour when he recalled how Celine tried her best to get into their clan. It was quite a taxing time as he was the one who had to take care of the matter. As for Kevin, he was busy handling other matter, so they didn't even bother to tell him.
Even if he didn't want Celine to come, it was simply impossible. That annoying girl was too stubborn to listen to their explanation.
Tommy nodded his head slightly. His gaze followed after Alice for a few seconds before he shifted it to somewhere else. He had to forget about it. There was no need for him to pursue this feeling anymore.
