But Nanao soon learns that Yako has scars of his own--Known as the “Tsubaki Demon”, Yako is marked with a curse that requires him to suck blood, and Nanao is the perfect vessel for him to feed upon. Even still, Nanao doesn’t mind. Grateful for the new life that Yako has given her, life at the Benitsubaki estate--where ayakashi work alongside humans without discrimination or judgement--feels like a dream. Nanao soon finds herself right at home and at ease from the tortures of her past... that is, until she runs into her former master, Reito... Will Nanao ever be able to escape her past, and what will it mean for her future with Yako?

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
