I've finished "Shuriken and Pleats Vol. 2" by Matsuri Hino.
Product Description
The creator of Vampire Knight returns with a tale about a female ninja in modern Tokyo.
When the master she has sworn to protect is killed, Mikage Kirio, a skilled ninja, travels to Japan to start a new, peaceful life for herself. But as soon as she arrives, she finds herself fighting to protect the life of Mahito Wakashimatsu, a man who is under attack by a band of ninja. From that time on, Mikage is drawn deeper into the machinations of his powerful family.
With her final mission as a ninja fulfilled, Mikage strives to lead the life of a normal high school girl. But the shadows of her former colleagues threaten to mar the peaceful skies. Mikage encounters someone she thought she’d never see again.

My Review:
It's quite obvious this volume was rushed especially near the ending! I would have loved to see one more volume of this series. The author left an open ending so you need to use your imagination.
For some reason I had a feeling that Mikage's master Mr. Rod wasn't dead but alive and somehow associated with Mahito! We learn why Mr. Rod was targeted and who the traitor is within the clan.
In this volume there were a few potential love interests for Mikage but all she can think about is her Master (lol!)!
4/5
