Darkness was her home. He lived in the light. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• In the state of high was when he saw her for the first time, cladded under the blackness of the night forest. She followed him into his dreams, to his bedroom. Abel was rather confused and found himself questioning, "Why me?" Nonetheless, when the mysterious beauty unleashed her true self before him.

"Everything that belongs to me is yours, princess.. my wealth, my assets and of course.. my heart" he stated, making her smile out of delight. Leaning in, she cupped his handsome face between her palms and began staring in his emerald eyes. "I know, but those materialistic things don't matter to me. I only want.. you", the words were purred in her husky voice as she slammed her plump lips against his luscious ones. •• •• •• Being the shy and submissive girl that Cassie was, society had always walked upon her and used her kindness to their advantage. Toxic friends, an abusive boyfriend, a life without parents.. the poor girl had endured it all. She had began believing that her happily ever after was far from her reach. That was until the famous Mafia businessman, Leo Asher entered her life. He became her sunshine.. her hope. He made her realise she was just as capable of loving as anyone else.

The revelations, their consequences.. it all terrified her to no extent. She couldn't lose him. After all, he was all she had. Cassie was left with no choice. The world was too dark, and it seemed the only way to protect him from its dangers, was if she became a part of it.
