Description:
A smoke-filled alley in Chinatown harbors Count D's Pet Shop. The pets sold here aren't your everyday variety and the Count prides himself on selling Love and Dreams in the form of magical creatures that come with an exclusive contract. But buyers beware. If the contract is broken the Count cannot be held accountable for whatever may happen. A fascinating and macabre look into the very soul of human nature.

Contains the following stories:

DREAM
Young Angelique learns the tragic nature of breeding the rarest of birds in the Strelizia.

DESPAIR
Out-of-luck actor Robin Hendrix has always preferred the company of reptiles, so it's only natural that he would fall in love with a very special and dangerous one.

DAUGHTER
There is no love stronger than a mother's love for her daughter, but one mother is about to learn that love can be quite painful.

DREIZEHN
They say that a dog is a man's best friend but for the recently blinded Karen, the bond with her new seeing eye dog is even closer.

Story and art by Matsuri Akino.
