Measure of the Dawn

Akiko Yamada felt like the prodigal daughter returning home after years away. They had whisked her away for her safety, but that safety net had failed. Yoichi Kyo knew the moment Akiko had been released from his clutches. He only had to figure out where his half-blood brother had sent her. They would all learn, regardless, she was his now. What had begun as a game had only turned into an evil and dark obsession. No one else could have her. Luca Kyo had been flung into the deepest pit of hell after seeing Akiko off to America. Tokyo felt cold now, a perpetual winter for him. It had been for her safety, but then Yoichi found her. Now, he moved quickly to get her back home to protect her properly. Coming back home to Tokyo was different. She was different. She only hoped she had the strength to fight off the evil in Yoichi that threatened to drown her. No more ignoring his feelings, Luca was ready for his winter to end. To measure the dawn after never-ending darkness, he would finally tell her the truth about how he felt.
