The Shadow Mark

Book excerpt: No matter how much Galidor tries to be just another face in the crowd, his unusual physical attributes make him stand out. If his true identity is revealed, no one will accept him, and many will want to annihilate him, but not Haruko. Haruko Suzayaki possesses an extraordinary sensitivity toward emotions. Instead of being repelled by Galidor, Haruko finds herself getting drawn toward him. It does not take long for Haruko to see that Galidor is not the monster he thinks himself to be. He may possess the power of darkness, but his heart is not swathed in darkness. Since their first meeting, Galidor has put his own life on the line to rescue Haruko. He knows he is falling for someone he is not supposed to be with. However, the Apex Neuroduction Corporation is hard-pressed to stop this dark hero from protecting the one he loves.
