Marcus Blackwood was sent to kill me. He was supposed to get close, earn my trust, and end my life before I ever discovered what I truly am. But neither of us expected the bond, it happened so fast. At thirty, I thought I had everything, being the CEO of my family’s billion-dollar empire, flawless reputation, a future perfectly mapped out. The world saw a brilliant businessman. They didn’t see the nightmares, the struggles for being lonely and sex starved. Keeping the facade of being a perfect son and a perfect CEO. The woman drenched with blood calling my name. The wolves howling beneath a crimson moon. I was never meant to live in the human world. I am the forbidden son of a vampire princess and a werewolf beta,the hidden heir whose birth once nearly destroyed both clans. A living prophecy powerful enough to reignite a war buried in blood. And Marcus? He was raised by the Vampire Elders to obey without question. His mission is simple: Find me. Understand me, and kill me. But the closer he gets, the more dangerous everything becomes. Because he doesn’t look at me like a target. He looks at me like I belong to him. And when enemies begin to crave each other, when assassins hesitate, when fate binds two men who should never touch… War is no longer the greatest threat, but love is..... And if he has to choose between his orders and my life I don’t know if he’ll kiss me… Or finish the job.

息子がピアノコンクールに参加する日、私は向かう途中で交通事故に遭った。 怪我の状態を気にする余裕はなく、私はおびえながら会場に駆けつけ、ちょうど授賞式に間に合った。 息子は金メダルを手に取り、興奮した表情で私の方に走ってきた。 私は微笑みながら頭を下げ、彼は背を向けて金メダルを夫の初恋の首にかけた。 私が10年間愛してきた夫でさえ、イライラした口調で言った。 「お前、こんな格好してどうしたんだ？汚くて、まるで物乞いみたいだ！ 今夜の息子の祝賀会には来るなよ。お前が来たら恥ずかしいって言われるぞ！」 私は一言も言わず、一人で病院に行って診てもらった。 雨の中を走って別荘に戻ったが、ドアがすでに施錠されているのに気づいた。 そして、私は激しい雨の中、一晩中ドアをノックした。 夜明けが訪れ光が差し込む頃、私は彼らにメッセージを送った。 「離婚します。あなたたちの望む通り、これからはもう邪魔しません」

もうすぐ60歳だというのに、私も流行りに乗ってみて、娘の夏川美咲（なつかわ みさき）と指折りゲームを始めた。 私は得意な気持ちを隠しもせず、笑いながら手をあげた。 「私にはね、すっごく賢い娘がいる！」 それを聞いて、美咲はほぼ顔色ひとつ変えずに、指を一本だけ曲げた。 「私、新しいお母さんができたの」 その言葉に私は固まってしまい、顔に浮かべていた笑みもこわばった。 だが美咲は落ち着いた目で私を見つめ、静かに言葉を続けた。 「その人、お父さんの初恋の相手なんだって」 それを聞いて私は強張った指を宙に浮かせたまま、頭の中が真っ白になった。 そして、さっきまで言おうとしていた言葉もろとも、この突然の告白で全部吹き飛んでしまったようだ。 しまいには、喉まで出かかっていた言葉までも、ぐっと飲み込んでしまった。 本当は……宝くじで、10億円も当たったの。 それを全部、あなたにあげようと言おうと思ったのに。

Reina Carlo was forged by the Stingers, a shadowy organization that raised her to be a weapon. Her memories of a family—a mother’s face or a father’s embrace—were long lost, replaced by the harsh discipline and ruthless training of her surrogate family. To her, the Stingers were everything, until betrayal shattered the fragile foundation of her loyalty. Now, Reina walks the streets as the hunter, her mission deeply personal. A man who dared to strip away her last shred of innocence must face the consequences. Her scars are tools, her training a guide, and by sunrise, her vengeance will be complete. But each kill leaves a stain on her soul, no matter how she rationalizes it. She tells herself the trade is fair: she removes monsters, and the world lets her survive another day. Redemption and forgiveness don’t belong in her world—they are luxuries for those unbroken by life. Yet the nightmares persist, whispering of a stolen past and a family that might still exist. Did they abandon her, or did they think her lost? These thoughts claw at her resolve, forcing her to confront a truth she can’t bury: forgetting isn’t the same as letting go. Her pact with Marco Alessandro—a powerful, calculating man—only adds to her turmoil. Their marriage of convenience grants her the resources to find her family and avenge her past. But Marco’s unrelenting gaze and quiet intensity break through her defenses, challenging the walls she’s built. As vengeance, love, and identity collide, Reina faces a choice: cling to the darkness she knows or risk everything for a future she can’t predict. In this world of shadows and betrayal, Reina Carlo fights not just to survive—but to discover who she truly is.
