Her Shadows
~ A World Painted Grey: Book 1 ~ Already incapacitated, I drag his limp body toward the smoking car. Fastening him back into his seat, seatbelt back in place. Then I grip his skull with my glove-clad hands and ram his head into the steering wheel. Over and over and over again. Eventually the breathing stops, and his weakened pulse slows to a halt. Dead in my hands I throw his head against the wheel once more. Reaching past his limp body, I grab the manila folder. For a moment I watch his corpse. Supposing I should feel even a twinge of guilt. But I never do. Not anymore. Instead, with no feeling in my cold heart, I turn my back to him and walk away. The car bursting into flames behind me. ~~~ Raised a trained killer, Amelia finds herself sneaking through the shadows, thriving in the darkness, living in a world of grey. Having spent her life conditioned to kill and torture, she had never considered the possibility of escape. Never thought a life existed beyond the sight of blood. Until an innocent boy, who's world was held in ink and paper begins to scatter the darkness and find the broken girl beneath. But with a traumatic past and an equally daunting road ahead, can Amelia escape the shadows that haunt her? HIGHEST RANKINGS #1 dualpovCompleta
STONE'S DIARY
9 years after the wedding, things weren't so bad for the Stone family, but it also wasn't peaches and rainbows either. A lot has changed over the years, some that could've been controlled and other's not so much. Life has always been pretty easy for the almost 18-year-old Reign Stone. With her twin, Kaari constantly by her side and always wanting to be the Pam to her Gina, Reign was wondering how life would be outside of her best friend. Their birthday was slowly approaching which meant a lot of changes for the two but mostly Reign. She wanted to find herself outside of her twin but that would be hard to do especially with the way their father and uncles raised them. Ava Amari Stone; 12 going on 13 and the most talented little firecracker ever. Dance, art, fashion, makeup, and cooking were just some of her hidden gems, but she had a thing for building any and everything from scratch; a habit she's developed from her father. She wasn't your ordinary teenager, she enjoyed animé, crime shows, mystery movies, and even corny romantic comedies but her specialty was Kairo. Her right-hand man, her best friend, and second set of ears. They were like two peas in a pod but reminded Renae so much of her and Dajon. With growth comes trials and with trials comes blessings, not everyone is meant to tag along when you make it. Sometimes you outgrow or have to let them go, but through the younger Stones eyes, take a look at just how different things were back when their parents were in the game to now... ©️ _jasthewriter 2020Completa
