Banished to planet Arrah. Scarred. And mentally unstable. Ramet needs help, but at the moment she's self-medicating on copious amounts of booze. It's fine though, she has a job, that's she's actually good at, fighting at The Ditches. And she makes enough money to continue to drink enough to forget about her past. 

But one night out drinking changes everything. Ramet meets Hara, beautiful, seductive and enticing, and from there things get complicated. Through Hara, Ramet is dragged into a crime syndicate and her new boss Whyan is a mean bastard. Still, Ramet rolls with the punches and tries to make the best of a bad situation, and a move on Hara, whilst drunk, of course. 

However, when Ramet realises Hara's life is in danger she begins to wonder if going with the flow is worth it. Plans aren't Ramet's forte and when things backfire on her final job for Whyan, she has to act fast, trust a government official to do the right thing, and try and stay alive in the process.

One last fight. One last drink. And then happily ever after is within Ramet's grasp. It's just ... forever is a long time.

There are dark truths hidden behind closed doors, that only few know. Truths that if they got out, would bring the downfall of the government. A government that has been deceiving people for generations. But they haven't been as careful as they thought, because 100 years ago, one guy found out their secrets. 100 years ago, one guy started the rebellion that would bring about the end.

It's only a matter of time until it happens again. This time by a group of people that no one expected. Together they work to find out the truth, but things have gotten worse over the last century and this may not only bring around the downfall of the government.

My eyes meet the set of eyes that had me irritated all evening before she quickly looks down, biting her lip. She doesn't look up after she places the tray of drinks in front of me but just stands as if waiting for me to say something. "Would you like to sit?" I ask before picking up my glass. "What?.." she answers, not knowing what to say. I make a come hither gesture. "Would you like to sit, love?" I asked softly, my voice raspy and low from the joint I was smoking. She straightens up a bit, before shaking her head, refusing my offer. I sigh before leaning forward for her to bend again. "You know, love, I know you were working and I also know that you should have clocked out hours ago but you didn't. You were just helping them out." She gasps in surprise, lifting her gaze to me as I said this. "I saw you on your way out with your bag before you decided to stay back after staring at me the first time. So, again, sweetheart, would you like to sit?" I ask with smirk on my face. She blushes before she decides to take a seat between Yareli and myself. I barely register Yareli getting up with a smirk and walking past us as my eyes are on this dark curly hair. ---------- Understanding the meaning of "capricious", came to Sage at the young age. She understood that life as we know it, is fickle and never plays fair. So she played the long waiting game when it came to life relationships. Staying in between. Friendships were valuable and clear to her that's why she had Bella and the terrible three. Question is, how long till you decide it's enough and make a choice?

They worried for her and couldn't take the long hours she had to work, sometimes working through the night. Her mothers worried for her, they just really wanted their Angel to settle down and find a good partner who could be there for her since she would need someone to emotionally support her considering how draining her job could be. Alex Carter, 28, is a prosecutor who takes on all rape cases and occassionally acts as a defence attorney especially when police brutality is involved. She has a deep hatred for cops.
