Three months have passed since Princess Mina, queen of all vampires, has recaptured the Bund. The damage inflicted to vampire/human relations runs deep, but a peaceful postwar restoration is now underway. Yet appearances can be deceiving. Somebody is trying to kill government liaison Reiko Gotoh, and it is up to werewolf bodyguard Akira and shapeshifting sheriff Hama Seiji to protect her. Seiji must look deep into his own past in order to uncover the hidden dangers that lurk in the present. The dark secrets he learns may not only impact his ill-fated romance with Gotoh, but could spell the end of the Vampire Bund itself.
