LOVELESS: Rewritten - Manga Volume 1

LOVELESS by Yun Kouga (NOT the one by alice) rewritten, self explanatory. NEW FAN FRIENDLY! You don't have to know anything to read this and u honestly shouldn't read the source material anyhow!!
I don't have the time or skill to make a manga so I figured a novel is good enough. I wanted to rewrite these characters and concept because I adore them and the ideas but it is very dated! I wanted to remove the weird bits while keeping the integrity and dark nature of the original story. I do not support the character's actions just because I write them, thanks. This isn't for you if you're a defender of Soubi or Ritsu or whoever please avoid me lol. Hopefully you can accept my creative liberties. I just had to see this manga get an ending, bad or not.
