Two, a high-profile assassin has been sent on a mission to eliminate Sage Smith the son of a wealthy business tycoon.
"Can you take a clear shot from your position "
"it'll be as easy as taking candy from a baby" Two boasted.
Sage suddenly looks over his shoulder, his eye line focused on her. It was so abrupt that it distorted her train of thoughts. She felt her heart drop to her stomach with goosebumps appearing on her skin. Her hand clung tightly to the pistol that was concealed in her jacket.
Could he see her?
The encounter which lasted no more than 5 seconds felt like hours to her, as he turned right back and continues with his call
"take the shot Two!" her partner's voice rang through the earpiece when he noticed she was hesitant
"take the shot, what are you waiting for?"
This second sentence was enough to pull her from any trance she was momentarily caught in.
Just as his fingers came in contact with the electric car door, Two pulls out her pistol and takes the shot, allowing the bullet to run free and claim the life of its target.

Delta: A Spy Novel

"I am one of them, baby and I will protect you with my life!" Was the sentence that made me fall down my knees and believe him, give him all I could give but it wasn't easy. I didn't choose this life. I don't want it but when I saw him I just thought that maybe, just maybe, he'd be the one who'd take all the pain of my past away with a small kiss of his kissable lips. At least that was what I expected. Perhaps, the devil that pushed me in hell, got sick of me enjoying it there and he sent me someone that looks so angelic when he smiles to make me feel like I'm in heaven. But sadly, as soon as I leaned in to kiss his lips, I realized that just looking in his eyes, I'd feel in heaven but looking around and seeing all those demons, my demons, smirking at me, knowing they won because I let him in but he was just one of them when I thought he was different. At the end of the day, I was just a maid in his father's house but I didn't look at it that way when I fell for him and that was how I lost myself. -Read to know how she lost herself, who is the angle and the devil, how did her demons won when she was trying so hard to run away from them.

He doesn't know how much he's breaking my heart right now. "Trinity, I don't know how to show you how much sorry I am." He states, rubbing his face with his hand in frustration. "You can't, your 'sorry' doesn't changed what happened." I point to my face, where the bandage is. "This could have been prevented but you didn't even move a muscle to come and save me." "Trinity, if I did that it could have ruined my plans." He says, lowly. "It doesn't matter. If you truly love me like you say you do, you wouldn't have hesitated to come save me. I was so scared Aaron, I thought I was going to die." I respond, tears spilling before I can stop them. "I do love you Trin, I love you so fucking much." He states, clutching his shirt where his heart is. "Not like the way I love you Aaron. If you were in the position I was in, I wouldn't have fucking hesitated to come save you. I would die for you and you clearly wouldn't do the same." - Trinity's planner didn't originally have "falling in love with Aaron Florence" on it, but after a heated night and multiple dates, it became a daily thing.

Nanny Express
Sage was left at the alter by her ex fiancé to elope with her sister. She was broken. Would she even find the one or be a victim to more heartbreak?. "If you stand over there you're definitely going to fall" He argued back obviously getting tired of me. Wanting to test his patience doing the exact opposite of what he wanted, I stood on the rock in the middle of the river. "No I won't, stop telling me what to do" I grumbled folding my hand in response he raised his brow at me "seriously you want to act like a child" "I'm not acting like a child I simply w.....arghhh" and I slipped of the rock and into the river. Unfortunately I slipped into the deep end of the river, fortunately the current wasn't too strong, I managed to swim back over to the river bank without much issue and me accidentally drowning myself. "This is the part where I say told you so" "And this is the part where I say if you love your little friends you won't dare" I threatened I was soaking wet, cold and shivering. "It's not little" He leaned down to whisper in my ear "Do you want to take a go" I was flustered but no way was I going to let him win this teasing battle he started. "Don't mind if I do" my lips were on the edge of his as I rained kisses around his face my hands roamed up to his sweater dragging it over his head ,he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close. He whispered my name "Sage" I stared at him with intensity as I reached over to yank the sweater completely out of his hand and start on the buttons on my shirt.....
