They were meant to meet at the most unfavored time. He's the infamous anathema in town while she, on the other hand is the pastor's daughter. He's a trouble magnet but she's his lucky charm.
"You shouldn't be with me, Lalisa. I'm no good influence...

When it comes to a matter of life and death, Lalisa Manoban didn't really believe in luck. She used to, but her life had been surrounded with threats and traumatized deaths. She must be heaven's favorite because she was still alive up until now... but everything happens for a reason and with one life that has been sacrificed, peace had finally come to this small town called Hallow County where people judge the unholy and praise the tamed. The law about houses doors that need to be painted with lamb's blood every Sundays and people supposed to hide till Tuesdays, has been nullified.
Justice was brought to the innocent ones and even the hypocrites were spared. Indeed, the unfair treatment of life.
"Have you heard about the governor's daughter?"
"Oh yeah! I heard she's been dating some outsider. That's so low."
"Weren't she supposed to be a role model? She's the student body president right?"
"Pity. She used to be someone I look up before."
"Her best friend is way worse."
"I know, she changed a lot. I wonder what happened?"
A coal black haired girl past through them, her presence alone made the gossiping girls shut their mouth as they studied her soft features and her passive piercing eyes. Her long straight hair made her even more intimidating as well as her dark makeup.
Her face void with emotions as she take a glance on them that made them shuddered in fright. What happened to the innocent daughter of the town's minister?
She halted a few steps away from them, she didn't turn around to look at them but Lalisa ran a hand through her hair as she rolled her eyes annoyedly. "Been gossiping about us again?" Just her deep firm voice made their spine chills and so their lips had been mummed immediately.
A small girl approached them, her brows raising as she shifted her gaze to the female students behind Lalisa and back to the latter. "Are they bothering you, Lisa?" She asked, worry lines marred on her forehead.
The raven head looked at her, eyes were bored and sleepy. "Were you friends with them Hayi?" She casually asked.
The small girl quickly shake her head. "I'm not friends to those who talked bad things about my friends." Hayi glared to the students behind them. Lisa and her became friends a month ago when the sheriff which is her father help them to what happened on the abandoned house in the woods. She knew about Chaeyoung and even the organization that protects the town. Dragon's Lair were actually working with the higher ups, like the governor's approval and such. Shadow slayers were legal in this town but people don't know about them. They work secretly to not alert the people who's living here and also to keep peace at this small crooked town.
