Synopsis
Abandoned teen Mako's sugar-daddy date becomes a deadly game with an assassin who must decide whether to spare her.
Abandoned on her 18th birthday by her absent single father, Mako struggles to make ends meet. When her friend offers to introduce her to a sugar daddy for a casual dinner and some conversation, it all seems straightforward and simple. Little does Mako know, someone else has their sights set on her date—a ruthless assassin on a mission to take out his target and leave no witnesses... Before she realizes it, Mako's late-night liaison turns into a deadly encounter with a contract killer, and now, she'll need to think fast, be resourceful, and turn on the charm to survive. Can she melt the heart of a cold-blooded hit man or will this potential beau get the best of her? (Source: Kodansha USA)
