The world is chaotic and cold. No love to give and no warmth to feel. It was easy to live in that kind of world when it was the environment you were raised in-it's just sad for the ones who were thrown into the mix without warning. The only advice you could truly give someone who was new and foreign to that kind of setting is to make sure every choice you make is made with purpose or else, what the hell are you still living for?

Kurenai thought she had escaped the darkness. Leaving behind the world of crime, she built a new life as an underground DJ by night and a professional hitwoman by necessity-taking out bad men for the secretive organization known as "The Pool." Alongside her best friend Solara, she stayed hidden in the city's shadows. But shadows always hide ghosts. Ka'Jai-known to most as Draco-never forgot the woman who walked away. A kingpin on the rise, he sees everything that happens in the city. And when his targets start falling to an unseen assassin, he finds her. Kurenai, the woman he trained, the woman he loved, and the one who betrayed him. But love and hate are two sides of the same knife. Now, Draco watches her. He tests her. He taunts her. And Kurenai knows he's close-too close. But even as the tension between them burns hotter, they are both trapped in a deadly game of secrets, violence, and desire.

"And it doesn't matter how much time passed or how much time will pass-it's him. It always has been him and it always will be him...I just don't know how to tell him," When it's more than a like, and they're more than a friend. When they know you better than you know yourself and just the thought of them is all you need to put a smile on your face-telling your best friend you're in love with them should be simple. Right?
