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.

Only Suited in Underworld
Shiro's Clinic
"Doctor, do you have to glare at me like that?" Kanae asked helplessly when he noticed that Shiro was looking at her with an annoyed expression.
Shiro snorted. "If you don't butt in into the fight between the clans, you won't get hurt like this. Do you think you're invincible to the bullet?"
"Well, no."
"Then you should learn how to behave next time. It's not like you get a mission to protect them."
Kanae laughed dryly. It was true that she didn't have any task to protect Kevin, but seeing him got hurt, her feet moved on their own. Before she knew it, she already stood before him and protected him from the barrage of bullets. Even she herself was not entirely sure why she wanted to protect him that badly.
