    Summary

    Yuri really is all grown-up now.
    He certainly doesn’t need Yor’s help anymore.
    It makes her wonder if there’s really any point in keeping her assassin job.
    Maybe Yor can make this her final job as the Thorn Princess.
    She never expected to be involved in a scheme that lets her meet a girl who can read minds and an enemy country's spy, who will make her life more interesting.

    Summary

    Just as she pries her head off the bar, the band playing at the far end of the room stops their song and a new voice booms from the microphone.

    “I’m terribly sorry to interrupt but…”

    Yor whips around to see a man standing on the small stage in front of the band, squinting into the bright spotlights as he leans into the microphone. He looks exactly like Loid, except slightly more disheveled and unlike his usual polished self. Her heart sinks.

    Please don’t let that be Loid, she silently pleads.

    “I seem to have lost my wife.”

    She buries her head in her hands while mumbling curses.

    Yor and Twilight learn the truth about each other. Neither of them expected what unraveled afterwards.

    Summary

    On paper, the mission had seemed deceptively easy. Disguise himself as Jonathan Norton, undersecretary to Ostania’s minister of research and scientific progress Jochen Regen, wait for the right moment, steal the files about Project Apple and leave. In and out. Easy. WISE Agent Twilight, currently posing as psychiatrist and family man Loid Forger, told his pretend wife Yor Forger née Briar and his adoptive daughter Anya Forger that he would be working a late shift at the hospital. An easy lie about shifting schedules. The usual.

    The unusual: The golden blade pointed at his Adam’s apple.

    Summary

    What if Anya did enlist her mother's help to stop her father’s death, catch the terrorist and save peace?
    ---

    Children cry. A lot.

    In frustration, from disappointment, over minor scares...

    Eventually you get a sense for the difference between a cry over something they'd call "no big deal" when they grow up, and a cry over something serious. The latter sends a jolt right to the chest. Summons a primal fear felt in every nerve and fibre of the body.

    "M-Mama, I’m scared."

    Summary

    Just then, he caught a flicker of movement on the street.

    A lithe figure flitted through the ghost town and through the front door of the building too fast for him to make out their features. They had been wearing black. The fabric had fluttered around their seemingly incorporeal form. A dress. It was a woman.

    Twilight’s mind raced. What was a woman doing here?

    -----

    In the midst of a rare hit job for WISE, Twilight encounters an unexpected variable in the form of Thorn Princess.
