Eight years prior to Sascha's story, there was another tale.
Decius and Laurenz never intended to meet each other. They were seemingly polar opposites; a bounty hunter and a criminal. However, what happens when the two strangers are forced to work together to escape the law?
From the outside, it seemed like they hated each other. However, they were yet to tell whether the bond between them would ever go deeper.
Despite their world seemingly falling apart around them, they must fight through the chaos to reach their goal: a life of peace away from devastation.
In a world determined to stop them, they must face frustration, betrayal, and the myriad of their own consequences.
For them, it seemed like another obstacle in the never-ending suffering they felt. What they didn't know, was that the choices they made would decide who they are, and would change their lives forever.

"Suddenly, I found our faces so close together, I could feel his warm breath caressing my face. It smelt slightly of mint, and an undercurrent that was all Cole-pure masculine goodness.I breathed in deeply, my eyes briefly fluttering closed. God, since when did he smell so good?"
Raven has lost everyone. Her mother and twin sister died, her father left, leaving her in alone in the world with powers that she barely understands. All that Raven has left is Cole, her best friend.
When a dangerous enemy resurfaces intent on killing Raven, Cole swears he will do all he can to protect her. As the two get pushed closer together, will their combined powers be enough to save them? Will Raven be able to stop her heart from shattering to a thousand pieces?
