Will he be able to quench his thirst for vengeance? Or will he fall along the way? A better question, will he learn to love and trust once more? That is a question even he could not answer.

Forsaken Fallen
"Walk on by my side, if death's your saving grace." This is a cruel story of humanity. An unforgiving, unforetold twist on the laws they call the norm. To those individuals and their handful of burden from a bygone past, it is their greatest wish for their torture to come to a close. Are they sinners? Or are they misguided, fallen angels? Is the kind of pain that makes them want to rip their eyes out... to turn their very beings into dust worth the journey in the big picture? In the reunion between two sides of the same coin does the curtain rise on this story. To one, a slave shackled by the truth of the world, to the other, a world that shall bow to one truth. It is in the deepest of despairs that sometimes the hopeful spirit is born--Thus I watch over with great interest. - P.

Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price. In a world of power, secrets, and ruthless ambition, every choice has consequences. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and betrayal lurks in the most unexpected places.
