Trust... Easy to say but difficult to do. People will say that it isn't hard trusting someone close to you, someone who has a special place in your heart. I do agree with that, but not fully. I can't trust someone who made me believe a lie. Things change either for the better or for the worst. We can't control everything. It goes beyond our power. All we can do is change our destiny with our choices. But what if the choices that I will be making will ruin me, destroy me, or even worst, kill me? Alexa Keys... That's my name. All I can say about my life is that I am a victim of weird love. You heard it right. To say the least, I usually don't mind all of the misfortunes I had in life. But all of us have limits. There comes a time when you have to stand out for yourself, voice out your unheard cries, and fight for your rights. But does this change anything? I don't know anymore. -----+++----- The cold wind of the dark chilly night rolled on my cheeks, making my hair flutter. He is right in front of me, still not opening his mouth to talk to me. His face was hard as stone, his eyes don't express any color. He isn't like this before. There is only one conclusion I had in mind. He is tired of me. The special person who brought me back the sunlight in my sky, who gave me hope for the awaiting future, the one who made me stand at my feet and go on with my worthless life is now tired of me. "Do what you want, but you will never be able to enter my life or even be part of it. I'm sick and tired of people like you!", I cried out loud. I have enough. I don't want any more of this pain. It feels like a knife is struck deep into my chest, cutting my fragile heart. -----+++----- Book cover designed and made by @sereneur. Thanks a lot for an amazing book cover!! \(^▽^)/

There's nothing worse than deception. To know your world isn't as safe as you expected it to be. To realize you're absolutely useless when it matters. To understand your best friend has kept a secret that would make or break you. Tara Koldem's entire life was just taken from her right in front of her. With no other choice, she's forced to leave behind everything. After a good night's rest, a new objective is in mind: find the person who stole everything from her and make them pay. With her new friend Devin by her side, nothing seems impossible. But when she realizes Devin kept a life changing secret from her, where does her judgment go from there? Sneak Peek: I tried to get up. But I couldn't feel any parts of my body. There was blood dripping from everywhere I looked. I could swear my leg was broken. Damn that troll was just tossing and throwing me around like I was a doll. Everything was silent except the ringing in my ears and the cheering and jeering of the audience above the commands of the queen to kill me. I could hear something else. A cry. A sobbing cry. I had enough strength left in my body to turn my head. And that's when all sense of pain left my body. I saw Devin with a blade to her neck next to the queen. She was crying out to me, "Please Tara just surrender! You'll die if you keep going! PLEASE!!!" She cried and begged me to stop but the queen silenced her. I tried to get to her but I couldn't get up. I sat there thinking to myself frantically "What do I do?! What do I do?!" She sounded so terrified. The Season Winter troll I was battling went to pick me up before its hand and head were sliced off in a split second. The audience went silent as I stood and glared at the Queen pointing my sword at her, its blade dripping the blood of my defeated opponent. The Guardian gave me the power surge I needed to force my way through the Queen's defenses, who she demanded subdue me. They were innocent, but stood in my way. So I had to cut them down.
