Name:  B.L.T (ビー・エル・ティー) Author:  Konohara Narise (木原音瀬) Synopsis:   When college student Masato Kitazawa applies for a part-time job at the bookstore nearest to his house, he never expects to run into Yusuke Omiya—the store manager and someone from his past.  Their chance encounter stirs up memories of a summer long ago, bringing back emotions that were never fully resolved.  Now, faced with someone who seems to treat him like a stranger,  Kitazawa  is caught between nostalgia and heartache as an old connection quietly resurfaces.  Note: Their initial encounter involves inappropriate behavior from the older character  Omiya  toward  Kitazawa  (then a junior high student).

Suddenly, the man stirred, rising with a swift movement that made Kyle stumble backward with a terrified cry. It was none other than Warren, the demon who had torn one of Kyle’s wings away.

Gemma peered down at him, her expression full of concern. “Lady Agatha was worried about you. She sent me because she thought something might be wrong.” Churin trembled where he sat on the branch. “I’ve been sending my letters just like always. N–nothing’s changed at all…” But Gemma shook her head. “The feather you used for your last letter was Kyle’s.

That’s why Lady Agatha thought it strange you’d send a letter with Kyle’s feather.” And then Churin remembered. He always kept a few of his own feathers stored for sending letters, but yesterday there hadn’t been any l...
