Rain hammered the empty streets, weaving a grim tapestry of sound. Leo Ferris, crushing his failing exam results in one hand, walked with a scowl, already dismissing the coming reprimand from his parents. Suddenly, a heavy, predatory gaze locked onto him. A tall, athletic figure closed in from behind. Picking up his pace, Leo found his path blocked. The man stood before him, shrouded in shadow. 'Move!' Leo demanded, his voice sharp. 'Such poor breeding, it seems,' the stranger snarled. Shoving the man's shoulder, Leo tried to push past but was instantly caught in an ironclad grip. 'Hey, let go, you bastard—!' A calloused hand sealed his mouth shut. 'Not a bastard. Jin Valko,' the man stated with chilling detachment, dragging him into the downpour.
