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.

Stupid Girl
Kanae knew that she had only been sitting for a couple of minutes when she heard the door being opened. Her eyes turned sharp as she wondered who dared to come during this time. Moving her feet swiftly, she hid behind the racks and peered from the slits to see who had come.
"Kanae," Kevin called the moment he opened the door. He had seen from the news where she was headed to and immediately reached this place.
"President…" Kanae got out from her hiding place and walked forward. Her face was filled with disbelief, "What are you doing here?"
"Picking you up," Kevin was relieved to see Kanae there. Even though she looked rather dirty because of the dust, there was no visible wound on her body. He pulled Kanae's hand and turned around, "Let's go."
