~Her hand felt like lead as she lifted it to his cheek and brushed a tear from his soft skin. 
"What are you waiting for? I'm already dying."~

Celeste Moyer has a trick up her sleeve. She can hear people's heartbeats, see their lifelines, and manipulate them at will. This makes her especially good at her job: assassination. When her father is killed by the biggest crime ring in her kingdom, Celeste vows to kill them one by one. A woman by the name of Johanna adopts her and can give her everything she wishes for. Johanna can make Celeste the most feared assassin in the kingdom, and possibly in the whole world. Celeste agrees and her path of vengeance takes winding turns; where enemies become allies, words become weapons, and truth becomes deceit.

"Previously known as... Scarletstroke: Girl assassin" * No hesitation * No killing of children * No killing of innocent people * No emotions * And defenitely, NO falling in love ~ Those are the main rules code named Scarletstroke, former assassin Scarlett Gonzales lives by. She is a highly-trained, highly-precise and highly-dangerous killer who considers herself the same as any other businesswoman, doing 'just her job' and convincing herself that she is dealing with 'just her target' rather than a person. She succeeds in contract killing better than any known assassin that ever existed and successfully ignores all feelings or emotions, knowing that they tend to make the "job" not go as planned. So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head. Although, what she finds in that world isn't quite what she expected. Now, torn between duty and passion, Scarlett must decide if she pulls the trigger or if she becomes the target herself? Who knows, maybe he might be the answer to her deepest desires. Because her next target: Cayden Carlisle. +++ The culprit took in a deep, calming breath. "You may as well shoot me now, but just know that I am still going to kiss you." By the time he grabbed her waist with one hand and her wrist, connecting to the hand holding the gun, with the other... she was lost. Completely gone. She never stood a chance. His smell, his mouth, his soft growling noises. They were more than enough to disarm her. "I finally figured something out about you." He whispered, pulling her closer, trying to meld every part of her to him. "You display all your emotions through body language. In this case, your hand is betraying your mask." Every word of his was chosen for maximum impact. No wasted syllables, no extra breaths. Just facts.

An original story: Louise Agnes clad in beautiful rented clothes and costly perfumes had a secret. Apart from being homeless that is. She had quite a different lifestyle from her peers. She hit clubs, bars, dudes - you name it - out of desperation. But you can say she's happily single, sadly in love, a fine social worker with multiple little jobs in hand, and AH...her little secret. She practiced sword art. A mastered swordswoman who knew she would have to wield her sword for real someday. And much to her dismay, her fear did come alive - Disguised as a person. With the help of other fighters and a billionaire she's in love with, she sets out to end this one sided annihilation from the villain. The battle has only just begun. There are a lot of secrets to unfold, a lot of heartbreaks to suffer and a lot of pain to endure. And when I'm talking about pain, it is one that includes blood. Tops.
