Will he receive a chance to heal, or forever remain trapped in his nightmares? This new work follows the story of Asakura Ryuu while he tries to make peace with the past and get his heart to beat again. Will he get another chance at love, or remain forever brokenhearted? EXTERP: ~~~ As if he was spellbound, Asakura stared unblinkingly, forgetting to move or even breathe. When he finally woke up from this stupor and spoke, his voice sounded gruff and thick with emotion. "If I continue, I’m afraid I might not be able to stop halfway. Are you ok with that, Sato-kun?" "I don't want you to stop." After giving this unexpected reply, Sato pushed himself up and wrapped both arms around Asakura's neck, pulling the man closer. Their noses touched and both of them felt a jolt of excitement run through their bodies. "Are you sure you want this?" Asakura asked again, his magnetic voice coming out in a low whisper. His warm breath tickled Sato's face, making the skin feel hot and tingly. "Yes." ~~~ Receiving the approval he needed, Asakura didn’t waste another second. He swiftly closed the remaining distance between them, capturing Sato's warm lips with his own. The ensuing kiss was tender and passionate at the same time, causing both men to become muddle-headed very quickly. Low, seductive pants escaped through their lips, coming in between shallow breaths. ~~~ Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

CURRENTLY UNDER MAJOR REWRITES, TURNING MC MALE This is not your average werewolf story. Shuhei Hanzo...is an Inugami: what might be called a werewolf species native to Japan, the product of ancient cursed lineages that still exist in modern times. Most Inugami belong to one of the two major clan families that rules the Tokyo underground, whether directly or as a member of one of the countless vassal clans that serve beneath them, quietly pulling the strings from positions of power and prestige within the country. Norio Takeda, the infamous bad boy Alpha of the Takeda major clan family, is his employer: being the one he calls upon for only the most brutal and bloody missions. It's a savage way to earn a living...but it's also the only life Shuhei has ever known. Through it all, he has maintained one strong anchor to his humanity, necessary in preventing his inner beast from taking over completely... Is is Norio Takeda's own daughter, Hina. Born without cursed blood, Hina has been his best friend since childhood, and eventual love of his life. This delicate balance is destroyed one day, however, when Hina is attacked and nearly loses her life...sending Hanzo into a downward spiral of despair, and putting him on the outs with Norio—who blames him solely for the tragedy. Ultimately both men want the same thing, though: Justice, while at the same time, a terrorist group of kabuki theater mask-wearing assassins are on the rise: picking targets all across the country with an apparent goal of exposing the existence of the Inugami to the world...as well as finally bringing an end to the centuries-old Uesugi and Takeda clans for good. The world is changing all around Hanzo, and he must inevitably change along with it... But how will he emerge from the all-consuming fire? Will he use it to burn away his traumatic past, to grow and become stronger? Or will it dissolve him into ash?
