Jinta wants justice for all the innocents going missing, he wants to bring peace to the families in pain but he also wants a front page story to prove to his family that he isn’t the failure they claim him to be, he isn’t the disappointment they continue to see. Jinta puts himself in the middle of the Yakusa, danger lurks around every corner but he is determined to succeed and find out what happened to those innocent souls. Meeting the renowned hitman should’ve scared Jinta, but all it did was make him more curious. He wanted to know who the man beneath the mask was but he had to tread carefully or he could be the next victim.

Noboru didn’t choose this life. He must serve, obey, enforce…. Kill. A betrayal to the Alpha by his father sealed Noboru’s fate and bound him to the head of Yakusa organisation. 

He is know as the Wolf of Asakusa but no one knows the true him, what lies beneath the man, until Hiro (Jinta). Noboru’s wolf recognises him as his, his human, his man, his love and he will protect him with all his will. All choices are taken away from Noboru except Hiro, he chose him the moment he laid eyes on him and no one will take that away. He will die for his love but can he live for his love? Can he break the curse to protect his love? Can he open his heart and have the life he’s always dreamed of? 

This book is full of suspense, fast action and heartbreak. A story of a wolf fighting for his free will and a human who excepts him for everything he is.
