Commander Kaoru “Hime” Koto leads Combat Unit One with strength, grace, and an unbreakable bond with her team — Ally, Captain Higashiyama and Yukimoto, and the ever-loyal Rumiko. Together, they’ve faced every challenge the battlefield can throw their way. When a new commander, Aoi Yoshida, arrives and begins to unravel the hard-won peace Kaoru built, loyalties are tested, and old wounds resurface. As tensions rise within the ranks, Kaoru must decide what kind of leader and friend she should be.

Life of Kaoru is far from over. She has a Book Two in the works and it will be posted to read a month after the last chapter so see you in Book Two!
