"The heart dies a slow death,
shedding each hope like
leaves until one day
there are none.
No hopes.
Nothing remains."
--Arthur Golden,
Memoirs of a Geisha
****************
My name is Kaspian Reynolds, but everyone calls me Kas, except for my mother who is a stuck up city council member. My father is a prominent judge, a man known for taking justice seriously and making sure everyone gets what they deserve. Where do I fit in? I don't.
I'm a killer, you see, and the right hand to the fiercest woman I've ever met. She's the Queen Pin to the small empire we built, blood and death marking the path in our wake, but she's also my best friend. Because of who I am, and who we are together, it's best if I stay away from the cameras that had filled my childhood.
I had become a ghost for all intents and purposes, living my life filled with violence and sex, away from what had once been expected of me. It wasn't what I wanted, at least that's what I told myself for years.
But they changed all that, making me want things that I shouldn't and couldn't have. The two people I never expected to succeed with such a task, they had found their way into the darkness inside of me and sparked an ember to life. She was broken and beautiful, and he had death on his hands just like me, but they were perfect.
The movies tell you that love is simple and kind, and books will tell you that the hero always gets the girl. However, reality isn't like that, at least it wasn't for me. The web I became tangled in was dark, based on twisted secrets and pain but fueled by sweet smiles and hazel blue eyes.
It was the most beautiful agony and I couldn't get enough. Do you want to know how it happened, how it all went down? I'll give you my story, but even I still don't know how it all ends. But I'll tell you how that small ember became a raging blaze and tried to burn us all.
This is how I, Kaspian Reynolds, a twenty-three year old, remorseless killer, found my drug of choice and became irrevocably addicted…
And I can't stop craving them…
