They Who Slaughtered Hope 🌈| Slow Updates/Editing

|𝙵𝚎𝚊𝚝𝚞𝚛𝚎𝚍 𝟷𝟷𝚡|

There's a war in London. No one knows how it started, but those caught in the fray can either struggle or thrive due to the nation-wide influence of two formidable factions: the Crimson Syndicate and the Brotherhood of the Verita Aser. Two separate organisations, each battling for triumph over the other.

Lennox, a Verita florist, is one of many struggling. His parents' penchant for materialistic spending and egotistical power plays landed him with an impossible task: to keep their shop afloat while being the perfect pawn for their propaganda. A fateful collision with Ren Ryker--a talented, handsome gunman from the opposing faction--could prove to be an avenue for romance... or something Lennox won't live to regret.

Ren, on the other hand, should be thriving. With each successful job, he earns coveted praise from his leader and the satisfaction of bringing the slightly sadistic Crimson Syndicate closer to victory. By his standards, he should be flourishing in every sense of the word. But despite his accomplishments, a single failure loses him the Syndicate's trust, leaving Ren flailing to return to prosperity. Without funds for surgery, he's robbed of a choice, and only an ultimatum remains. He must kill Lennox and his family to stop his comfortable life from crumbling beneath him.
