Rowan Platts is addicted to success. When she's presented with the chance to work on a top secret project fronted by her idol, renowned virologist Dr. Margot Miller, Rowan signs her life away without second thought. The realization she's gotten in over her head comes only after the subject of their study is revealed: a boy with a bad attitude and an uninhibited taste for human blood. He's a medical anomaly. Having the ability to crush metal with his bare hands and hear a heartbeat from across the room, it would make Rowan's career if she was the one to discover what made him so unusual. Easier said than done, with a subject who prefers snapping necks over answering questions.

Arashi Katsuragi is a stellar individual, albeit aloof and cold. His preferred silence made his peers wary of him. Not that he had much to brag about. His entire life, he had been living among the fringes of society, acting as the fist of justice against those whose greed and evil knew no bounds. That was before he decided to drop it all for the sake of the girl he loved. However, the past wouldn't let go of him that easily. Not when he was one of the most dangerous men alive. Indeed, he might be the greatest warrior, but he might be the loneliest one as well. After all, when the only bright spot in his life was being threatened to be taken away, how could he go against it, when the happiness of the most important person in his life depended on it? [A Black Equation novella]
