Whispers Behind The Blade
22 parts Ongoing MatureNaomi Mitchell is a 24-year-old college student at Neon Valley University, currently in her final year. For the past six months, she has also been working as an assassin. Though new to the trade, Naomi is smart and a quick learner. She also has two close best friends, Julian Moore and Zuri Wilson
Naomi grew up with limited contact with her father, seeing him only on her birthday and special holidays. Instead, she was closest to her older brother and her mother. But what if her father is secretly her worst enemy?
Arien Parkers, also 24, is an experienced assassin and Naomi's rival. Like Naomi, he's in his final year of college. Cocky and a tease, Arien loves to get under Naomi's skin, and she despises his arrogant attitude. Their rivalry has been fierce ever since Naomi entered the world of assassins.
Despite their animosity, neither can deny the other's attractiveness. Yet both stubbornly refuse to acknowledge any deeper feelings.
Their world turns upside down when they are assigned to work together on a mission. Forced to cooperate, will they overcome their rivalry and uncover hidden truths about themselves-and perhaps about Naomi's father?
