Forbidden
She wasn't supposed to have any feelings for him. She was the fearless Okashira of the Oniwa-Banshu. And he? He was a feared assassin who worked under the command of Shishio Makoto, a madman, in her opinion, trying to take over Japan and its new government!

His eyes, once so empty, haunted her thoughts, her opinions, her very nightly dreams.
Was it possible there was forbidden love for them?
