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.

New House
Patrick called Kanae early in the morning to hand that girl the house he had prepared. Upon seeing the house, Kanae felt satisfied. The size of the house was not that big, but it was already more than enough for her to stay. Besides, she never needed a large house in the first place.
"How's it?" Patrick grinned.
"I love it, thank you, Senior Pat," Kanae smiled brightly. She inspected the house slowly and felt that it was already more than enough for her.
Patrick crossed his arm proudly. In truth, this was just an abandoned house that he ordered people to clean up yesterday. This place belonged to him and he transferred the ownership to Kanae's was extremely easy. All he needed to do was make a call to Matt and let his junior did all the work.
Of course, Matt would only do the work after complaining to him for a long time.
"I'm glad that you like it. This place is going to be your home from now on."
Home…
