In a world of assassins, there is a city divided into two circles. The Low Circle, known more commonly as Silicen, is the home of the Assassins' Guild, a powerful underworld organization that holds influence over both circles from the shadows. The High Circle, or Hana, is the home of opulent architecture and expensive knives used to stab others in the back.
When the Guild forms a team of the elite for an assassination of a powerful Hana politician, the tenuous relationship between the two circles is threatened.
A child prodigy who has only ever been told that he is a weapon. A former high-ranking assassin who managed to escape once but came back for reasons unknown. A poisons expert who will do anything to protect his siblings. A technological genius who keeps his cards to his chest under a veil of sarcasm and humor. A femme fatale who wants nothing more than to reunite with her sister. An exiled Hana assassin who wants nothing to do with the Guild, but still takes their orders.
A group of six killers try to navigate politics, friendship, and betrayal-- with quite a few murders along the way.

Assassin
Haunted by the relentless echoes of a fateful night, Hana's path takes a dark turn as she joins an enigmatic assassination corporation alongside her loyal comrades, May and Mark. For Hana, becoming an assassin isn't just about honing lethal skills; it's her means to safeguard and unshackle a world ensnared by darkness. Amid a routine mission to eliminate a high-profile target, Hana stumbles upon a chilling symbol from her past - a sinister emblem that signifies the shadowy puppeteers orchestrating the criminal underworld's malevolent dance. Consumed by a torrent of emotions, Hana's vengeful pursuit blinds her to a more significant threat, one that vanishes into the depths of obscurity. As the shadowy adversary's movements intensify, the assassination corporation issues a chilling directive to all its squads: embark on a long-term mission to exterminate this ominous menace. The question looms large: can Hana muster the unwavering resolve to confront Millennium, put an end to their nefarious reign, and set the world free? Copyright Of Kyle Bolger 2022

His finger trailed up my thigh ever so gently causing my pussy complete torture. He knew what he was doing. He knew this was driving me completely crazy. Just as his fingers were trying to push past my underwear my hand grabbed onto his wrist. "Don't," I warned, in a low voice making sure nobody would notice. "Watch me fuck you in front of every single person here unless Tobias stops looking at you like that." He explained. I glanced over to Tobias who was looking angrier than ever. If Tobias didn't stop looking at me not only would my husband keep to his word, someone would send a bullet through his skull. *+*+* Scarlett Salvadore was to be married to a man she hated with all her heart to increase her father's power.

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing.
