IF THE ONLY PATH TO THE TRUTH WAS THROUGH DEAD BODIES, WOULD YOU STILL MAKE YOUR WAY?

Celestina Gervacio has chosen to forget her past and now goes by her assassin name, Titan. She bleeds red and yet she is not entirely human. People call them Engkantado - derived from a mythical folklore creature with powers no man could possess. She can bend metallic elements, making her the most sought-after assassin of the Elite Houses of Corona to do their dirty work.

Her longest and wealthiest patron, Kalixtro Verginbolt, hires her once again to solve the mystery behind the bombings of his pharmaceutical company's laboratories and kill the Supreme Council members he thought were behind the attacks. The truth behind the mystery of her parents' death will be the payment.

Then, Kalixtro introduces her to her partner, Lorenzo Aragon, her foster brother who left him when she was a young girl. Angry, she refuses her patron's request. But she is not the boss here and she will follow.

Without so much choice, Titan and her brother will have to face the syndicate behind the bombings and tear them apart to uncover what really happened to her parents.

But as she digs deeper, she begins to discover a far more sinister truth than the death of her parents.

Dead bodies are what will pave her way to get what she wants and she will slash her way through it. After all, the more she uses her blades, the sharper they become.

"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.

'For The Mafia' Series - Book 1 of 3! ~~~ "Down on your knees." He lets go of my hair and pushes my shoulders down roughly, before unbuttoning and shrugging off his shirt. I kneel in front of him and instantly unbuckle his belt and unzip his black pants. He watches me eagerly from above, keeping his hands to his side, letting me lead. "Are you jealous when I flirt with those men for information?" I bat my eyes up at him innocently as I pull his pants down to his knees. His face hardens as he considers my question. "I don't like your hands on them." He grumbles and I smirk. I already knew the answer. "I do it for you, Enzo." I remind him as I move my mouth closer to him. "Only me." He growls as he pulls my head forward, closing the space between us. ~~~ When a dangerous mafia leader meets this particular stripper, he learns she is anything but. Both equally ruthless and thirsting for power, he hires her as his lethal interrogator and assassin, however she quickly becomes more when neither can resist each other.
