Black Bird, v. 1 by Kanoko Skurakoji

Black Bird, v. 1 by Kanoko Sakurakoji - 194 pages

Misao has always seen things no one else has -- demons.  As she turns 16, those demons start to attack her.  She's rescued by her childhood friend Kyo who heals her by licking her wounds.  He's a demon who is determined to marry her to bring prosperity to his clan.

Black Bird is a fairly popular manga series that picked up to read on my lunch break.  I did not care for it.  The Misao is very wishy-washy and Kyo and other male characters are pretty much bullies that sexually harass Misao.  This is definitely for older teens.
