When the two best thieves - self-proclaimed - in the entire continent decide to take on the same target at the same time, unaware of the other's involvement, it can't go as planned. Two massive egos, an even more massive mission on a flying city in the clouds and as if things weren't complicated enough, a group of cyborg cultists also enter the tense chemistry between the two rivals.

A fast-paced heist adventure with some kind of romance, humor and lots of flying stuff...

"Her troubled eyes held fire. The kind of fire that was capable of burning me to ash." ***** I grabbed her chin with my free hand, making her look at me. "I hate that I don't know you. I hate not being a part of your life, like I was before." I leaned a little closer, as her intoxicating scent filled my lungs. "Trust me, I can't hate you, no matter how hard I tried." "So you have... " It came out as more of a question than a statement from her as she looked at me with her big blue eyes. "What?" I frowned, dropping my hand from her chin and grabbing her hand, instead. "You have tried hating me then?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. This time it sounded more like a statement than a question. "I have." I sighed, dropping my head in shame. "And it made me lose the most important person in my life." ***** One night. What harm can one night do? It can change lives. Turn best friends into enemies. Turn someone's life upside down. Emily Waters and Ryder Green, were inseparable, joint to the hip, always had each others back and loved each other behind the best friend facade. But one night changed it all.

❝ I love to hate you; because if I don't, then I will hate to love you. ❞ (PLEASE note that this was my first work and is unedited. I've greatly matured in my writing and please don't judge me on the basis of this piece of work. Read at your own behest.) ~ "You know....." he whispered seductively. "People would die to see us together." Huh, as if. "Too bad their dreams won't ever come true." I leaned forward and gave him a sorry look. "Ever." I added with a sharp edge and narrowed my eyes. He smirked. I stood my ground. But I could still feel my cheeks take up a slight pink. It also made me think if Sam was my only mysterious problem. But I knew better. ~ They're arch-enemies. One popular, friendly girl and a hugely dangerous secret. One popular, arrogant guy and a dark deadly secret. One ruined relationship. Two entwined secrets. They hate. They bite. They prank. They fight. But above all.....they deny. When popular and handsome Sam Drew Lockhart and just as much of his equal regarding arrogance and sarcasm, Lea Olsen Summers, find themselves at their usual revenge crossroads, sparks weren't meant to go off. They never did in the last three years, so why would they now? With a mystery to unravel and a dangerous and mysterious stalker hot on her heels, Lea finds herself in a tight spot. What she thought would be easy, soon turned into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Feeling history repeat itself, Sam isn't really willing to let everything, including Lea, go easily. Even if his secrets are in danger of being revealed. Now despite all this happening, was friendship; let alone love, still an option for these two? That too, when more than a few guys were willing to fight for Lea's affections? Read to find out. And trust me........ You want to. ~ (Please proceed by clicking on the READ button and do vote and comment! Slowly being Edited. PS: This is a work of fiction, please don't copy it.
