   Summary

   AU Where Scaramouche is a heart eating cannibal with the power to make his victims fall in love with him.

   Shikanoin Heizou is the lead detective on the case of a string of cannibalistic murders committed by a terrifying killer known as the Shinzo Kuishinbo (Heart Devourer). He has to balance the endless hours he commits to the case, his budding relationship with Kazuha after years of pining, and confusing feelings for a new friend named Kuzo. Meanwhile, Kazuha is falling rapidly in love with Kuzo, despite sensing that Kuzo is hiding a dark secret. He struggles with his feelings for this mysterious man, while holding on for dear life to his love for Heizou. All the while, Kuzo is pulling all the strings, playing them like a pair of puppets in a tragic romance.
