"Why don't you care?"
"Why should I? I told you that my life was taken a long time ago." He pauses and his eyes drop to my mouth. "And I just haven't found anything to make me care since."
I hear the sound of something hitting the concrete right next to my left ear. I can feel cold metal touch my left cheekbone as his lips brush over mine. My mind barely grasps that he has their gun next to my head as he kisses me|...
Serving as Optimum to her sect, the Elites, means that Tallon Avis is respected as the greatest fighter in the greatest sect in the New World. She has led her militia to win the fights for the past three years and knows she will have no problem winning against them again. This year as The Fight begins she sees that her opponents, the Republic's, are weak as usual. The one thing that has changed? The attitude of one of the opposing fighters, Asher Stone.
As she goes through each part of The Fight she makes it her mission to find out why this fighter is so rebelliously quiet. Is he planning an uprising against the Elites?

"He is watching us." I say without looking back at the Asher kid.
"He glances at me. He stares at you. If I were you I would be careful."
"Listen. I haven't won this thing three times for nothing. One fighter isn't going to do anything to hurt me, even if he is a little weird. He is still a Republic fighter, and I always win against the Republic.

"Is that Marcus? Marcus as in, from our High School Marcus!" Casey squeaked.
I spun around, not quite believing her, but there he was. He strode through the school like he owned it and my god, he could've. He'd changed over the four years he'd been gone.
It was like god himself had carved him from a statue. His cheekbones could cut a finger and a jaw that could slice a hand. He was taller, more muscular. He looked nothing like the boy that went away. He wore a blacket jacket and ripped jeans, his grey eyes studied the school as every female studied him.
Suddenly, they slipped past every other person's eyes and landed on mine. No surprise etched his face, it was like he didn't recognise me. Until I saw the corner of his mouth lift up.

Best friends, Diana and Marcus planned to do everything together. They would go to college and live in the same dorm room, they would always be best friends.
But, Marcus went away.
Without expecting him to return, Diana uses her heartbreak to change her life. She becomes popular in college..
Then one day, he shows up.
But he's changed, he's darker, more silent and definitely a lot more hotter. He'd grown taller, his face sharper and he drew eyes from every woman on campus, even the guys. He spoke to no one and didn't even acknowledge her until she spoke to him.
But something was very off. Very off, indeed.
