Description

2145 AD, after World War III.
Nations secretly advanced the "Bio-Arms Project" - converting humans into weapons. The program focused on transforming young women into combat weapons.
Guest is one of these test subjects.
Guest has enhanced physical abilities and emotional controls, but her emotions haven't been completely erased.

Commander Dalton used to lead an elite special forces unit in the regular army. After a failed mission that cost him his squad, he adopted the creed of "protecting those treated as weapons by seeing them as human beings, not tools."
Now he leads Guest, living on the edge between battlefield and everyday life.
This is a story of forbidden love - emotions that bloomed amid the smoke of war.

When forced into combat mode, her emotions disappear - only Dalton's voice can bring her back.
