    Summary

    Levi has come a long way since he was found living in the streets, his true nature unknown to himself and to those around him. After the night this nature surfaced, he was taken in by an underground boss who shed a bit of light on his being. Years later and trained as an assassin, he has steeled himself against things like affection and love. They are too dangerous for a man of his kind.
    He is proven right when his next job rolls around. As the daughter of a weapons lord is threatened, Levi gets hired to guard her and her brother 24/7. And what do you know, a young man, locked up in his own home and bored to death, has a lot of energy left to spend trying to get closer to the new employee. He shows Levi that he isn’t as stone-heartened as he pretends to be. Nonetheless, Levi's in deep conflict about his own identity, not willing to let the boy get too close and fall prey to the darkness of his twisted life.
    Shortly after the reason for his current assignment appears on the scene, Levi realises that yet he knows only the half of his true self and has been kept in the dark not only about his origins, but about his connection to the family he protects as well. Torn between vengeance and love he has to decide.
