"Common sense, Gerald, is not a gift but a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it, now sign this goddamn deal like a grown man and stop whining about it" Atlas Lucien D'Angelo, the best closer in the country, only lost once. "Funny, yesterday you were willing to pay a million for me, I was quite offended, to be honest, I am worth way more, also that showed desperation and we both know in any other weaker firm, I'd be a senior partner by the end of the year, probably name partner in 2 years but it'd be boring and easy things aren't worth it, so take it or leave it, I'll do just fine either way." I leaned back into my chair. Skylar Artemis D'Angelo, a 16-year-old law prodigy. "You wanna know why I win? because I have the balls to get the things I need done" "If I can win why should I care about anything else?" The love for winning is something they had in common. Lucien knew he had a sister, after all he was the one who let the three old go and face the cruel world alone while he rose from being an associate in one of the best firms to name partner of THE best firm. "We, my sister are going to a casino" "I'm Sixteen!" "I'm Lucien!" Skylar had gone through hell and still rose a devilish-angel, a smart extremely intelligent and cold angel. His firm wants her, every firm in the world does, but she thinks easy things aren't worth it so she starts working for him, of course not letting him know who she really was but nothing can be hidden forever can it? Secrets come out. Blood is spilt. Tears are needed but so are laughs after all Skylar's past in no joke, and now it is not only threatening her but him as well. "This is me, Atlas, broken, murderer, assassin, object, an object sold for a mere two dollars so deal with it, and stop looking at me like that while I have to save your bloody life" Because the past is always lingering, and her past is more than just dangerous, it's deadly. (PS. A major plot twist changes almost everything)
