Freya Blackmen has grown accustomed to the disappointments of the world and has always channelled her anger and hurt into the only thing she's ever been able to do right, boxing. She's gotten this far in life without needing anyone so what's stopping her now? When one familiar face starts getting a little to close everything changes for Freya, but will she be able to do this right?
Asher Pierce never got what he wanted, whenever he was finally happy and contempt, everything changes and not for the better. So when Asher is forced to move back to his hometown after an accident, Asher puts all his pent up emotions into boxing. The last person he is expecting to see is the one and only Freya Blackmen (who is boxing nonetheless). And as Asher starts to feel happy again he is scared it will all come tumbling down once more.

-Highest Ranking #3 in Nightmares- "Stop lying to me." Asher hissed harshly, his eyes furious as he hits the wall beside my head making me flinch. "I'm not lying." I defended pathetically, looking away from his dull eyes. Knowing if I locked eyes with him he'll tell through my lies. "Yes you are. Everything you say are lies!" He yells punching the wall again making me flinch. "Enlighten me! What did I lie about!? Huh?" I asks, my anger raising by the seconds. "Saying that you're fine when you're not. Saying that you sleep when you don't. Saying that nothing bothers you, but in reality you can't breath." His heavy breathe fans my face as I held in my tears. My heart beats rapidly against my chest. "Aren't you tired of lying? Aren't you tired of pretending!? Tell me!?" He yells, his veins in his neck popping out with each words he says. As he begins shaking my shoulders like he's trying to pull me back to reality. Behind my smile was a breaking heart. Behind my laugh I'm falling apart, behind my my eyes are tears at night. No one has ever notice but him. Only him. _______________________________________ They thought their pain was permanent, every ounce of fear and doubt drowned them in a deep pit.
