But an odd opportunity could make things better or worse.
A secret mission.
A past friend turned runaway turned accomplice.
A family with a past that could ruin her life.
And a possible delinquent blood relative.
What could possibly go right?

Phoenix
My entire body felt on fire under his intense gaze. I tried my best to avoid eye contact as he towered over me, but once my eyes met his, the usual amber color of his orbs went darker and darker until they were now of a fervent brown shade and his pupils dilated drastically. The sight shocked me, causing goosebumps to rise all across my arms as electricity shot up my spine and my stomach erupted not in butterflies, but rather, I'd say in pterodactyls. It was both a terrifying and mesmeric sight... ___________________________________________ After being dared to kiss the first person to enter the dark room, 19 year old Essence later finds out that the person she kissed, 21 year old Phoenix, is her hand to hand combat trainer in her new assassin's school.

Assassin Love ✓
[COMPLETE.] Going to war with your dad's enemy seems chaotic. But when he asks you to pretend to love his enemy's son for information to help attack them is another type of chaos. The catch is, you can't fall for his son because it isn't apart of the deal. But love has a funny way of doing the opposite of what the world tells you to do. "Would you do it for me?" I ask. "Sure, anything for my lawyer and I understand why you are mad, I would too after being disrespected in that manner." he answers and I chuckle. "Ooh, now I have an overprotective client, lucky me." He chuckles. "Very lucky phela I'm supposed to hate you." "What's that supposed to mean?" "Nothing let's leave it." "Okay." Please don't tell me he has already figured it out.

How best friends fall
Lena and Vanessa had been inseparable since kindergarten. They were the kind of best friends who knew each other's secrets before they were spoken, who swore that nothing-no one-would ever come between them. But high school had a way of testing even the strongest bonds. It started with Aaron. Vanessa's boyfriend. The boy Lena had never meant to fall for. But feelings didn't care about friendship pacts or unspoken rules. They crept in quietly, filling the spaces she tried to keep locked. And Vanessa, sharp as ever, noticed. Betrayal burned hot in Vanessa's chest. She wasn't the kind of girl who cried over things like this. She was the kind of girl who got even. If Lena wanted to break the rules, fine. Vanessa would break them worse. And what better way to get under her best friend's skin than by setting her sights on Lena's younger brother, the charming heartbreaker? Lines were crossed. Secrets unraveled. The best friends who once swore to put each other above everything were now caught in a web of lies, jealousy, and heartbreak. Now, they had a choice to make: fight for their friendship or let the wreckage of love and revenge consume them. Would they choose each other? Or would they let the damage be the end of everything they once had? And my friend Linneah helped come up with the concept and it's based off of us in our friendship but all the drama that happens did not happen to us.Complete
