First of all, if you've taken the time out of your day to read this, then I thank you from the absolute, bottom of my heart!
A devil with an unknown past, Avarice is a complicated and kind young man. One day, his entire life is turned upside down when he is suddenly exiled from his home.
His story is one of self-discovery and acceptance as he comes to terms with who and what he is. While just on the run, he meets friends to confide in, enemies to challenge him, and a singular, shy girl of faith, who cannot help but see him for what he truly is, a devil with a heart of gold.
But what does his future hold, and can it help him escape from the past he flees from? Or will it instead force him to turn around, and finally confront his demons.

Rumor
Cursed with the Devil's gifts, I've lived my whole life hiding who I really am. To the world, I am simply the daughter of The Phoenix, the most sought after courtesan in all the lands. I could never compare to her grace and beauty. And that's all I can afford to be or the Church will come after me. I'll keep my nose down and work hard to care for my brother. Even though I know someday he'll leave me for a better life, just like everyone else does. When the new apothecary in town knocks down my door demanding to take me for an apprentice, I can't decide if its a blessing or curse. Adam is coarse. His home is a meticulously clean mansion far outside of town. He can't seem to stand being in a room with me for long. He has no problem telling me off. But he's awakening something inside of me. Something powerful. If only I could keep the Devil at bay. 🌶=spice *attempted SA* warning

And when that whisper answers back, it comes with a contract written in blood. A demon offers her the impossible: one chance to reclaim the man fate stole from her. But resurrection is never a gift. It's a bargain. When hope fades and every miracle demands a sacrifice, what remains of someone who has already given everything for love?
