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.

Refurbishing the Mansion (3)

"Why didn't you tell me that Kevin and the others were coming?" Jason asked Laura when the two of them were painting the back house.

Laura shrugged. "Is there any need for me to tell you that?"

Jason smiled wryly. If he knew that they were going to come over, he wouldn't have come because he didn't want to make things difficult for Kanae. If others knew that they had a close relationship, the two of them would be in huge trouble.

"It's fine for them to come, right?" Laura arched her eyebrows. "Sis seemed to be really happy when I said that we can invite them here."

Jason was certain that Kanae would be happy to see Kevin again considering how the two of them have been interacting so far. The real problem lay elsewhere because he didn't want to let others know about their real relationship. After all, he first met Kanae when he roamed on the street at night.

"How do you know she's happy?"
