In a dystopian future where Vampires emerged from the shadows in order to stop humanity from becoming extinct, a young woman with a dark past meets a charismatic stranger.
As time goes by Private Love Aikawa of military Unit 4-7, finds that she may not be as human as she first thought, and that humanity may not be the side that she should be fighting for.
Battling rogue vampires, mutated creatures and her own past, Love works to unravel the mysteries behind the secretive Helsing unit, and tries to become the bridge between humans and vampires in a world filled with discrimination. 

This novel starts intentionally slow through the exposition and world building, everything kicks into gear after the turning point in the latter half of Volume 1, and especially Volume 2, where the tone of the novel shifts. So, I hope you stick with it and enjoy the wild ride! 
I also added some song recommendations along the way to listen to whilst you read certain chapters, I hope this helps boost the experience. 

Public Spotify playlist for Volume 1 is under the name: TLAR - Book 1

This is rated 'No one under 17 permitted' for (very) mature themes, including drug use, assault, discrimination against same sex couples, language, violence etc.
Please note that no storyline is chosen for shock value, and most are taken from personal experience, and hopefully handled with the care, respect and sensitivity they deserve.
Disclaimers are added against any chapter that may cause distress. 

The main couple is a man and woman but there are also LGBTQ+ characters and relationships spread throughout, hope you enjoy!

Chapter 22. "We need to be ready for him."

"So tell me again, Ez. Exactly how is this bait plan meant to work?"

"Hmm, something like this." Ezra pushed Faith out from behind their hiding spot and a ricochet of bullets began to fire towards her, as she frantically dodged and dived out of the way just as Ezra lifted his head up from behind the cargo containers and swiftly picked off three of the soldiers playing the part of the enemy team, with a single shot to their helmets.

"You piece of shit. Stop doing that to me!" Faith rolled back towards where Ezra was still standing and roughly pulled him down out of view, "And stay low, you're too damn tall."

Ezra chuckled quietly as they made a move towards the next position now that their previous had been compromised by his sudden actions.
