An orphan girl makes a living for herself and her little sister, Uma, by pickpocketing off the streets of Manhattan, New York. However, her whole life flips upside down when a stranger knocks on her door one morning and tells her she isn't human-- she's Fae.
-------------
He was not human. Definitely not from around here with his tailored suit and clean face and horrifyingly captivating accent. His voice, his eyes... I didn't listen to much folklore, but he would've fit the character of the Devil perfectly.
As I stared at his grim, devastatingly handsome face, I couldn't help but wonder if this was my end. The Devil coming to repay the Girl of Many Deaths with one final death; hers. How fitting.
I wonder if they'll call my death an accident or suicide.
"Let's do this the easy way. You need to try and understand me for that to happen, though." The man's voice morphed into an unwanted caress, gliding over my bare skin and burrowing into my head. "I'm Draven, a Fae from a mirror realm known by our kind as Anukatria. I've come to take you back into the lands which birthed you."
I instantly regained use of my mouth. "I'm sorry, what?"
"You are Fae. A powerful one at that, might I add. The fire you set yesterday altered our nation to your presence, and I was sent with an offer to train you, from the High King himself. To protect you from further such... incidents." His eyes narrowed ever so slightly. "Should you choose to accept."

The Devil's Crybaby
Eliza Labelle had survived a shooting that should have killed her, but surviving turned out to be the beginning of her problems rather than the end. After waking in a hospital bed with a bullet wound and a government determined to bury the incident, she discovered that the man responsible had vanished behind the walls of a place most people only whispered about. While her family tried to push her back into her privileged city life, strange events and growing unease made it impossible for her to forget what happened. When she was suddenly taken from everything she knew and dragged beyond the safety of the world she had grown up in, Eliza found herself trapped in a brutal land ruled by old loyalties, hidden power structures, and people who lived by laws far different from those of the city. As she struggled to survive among dangerous strangers, she uncovered secrets that connected powerful families, forbidden territories, and a world that had been carefully hidden from ordinary people. The deeper she was pulled into that world, the harder it became to separate friend from enemy, truth from manipulation, and survival from sacrifice. What began as a fight to return home slowly became a journey that forced her to confront the darkest parts of human nature, the cost of loyalty, and the reality that some doors could never be closed once they were opened.![A Lifetime Away [COMPLETED✔]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/211778468-256-k136758.jpg)

For a moment, she started to have hope that maybe they wouldn't be able to find her, but a voice spoke up, and fear flooded in once again. "You cleared out the upstairs, too, right?" "Yeah." Another voice responded. There was a slight pause, "Hmm. Then where is that heartbeat coming from, I wonder."

I lift my hand, holding my pistol to his chest, hovering over his heart. He stares at me, emotions spilling out of him. Emotions I can't decipher. He leans closer, the tip of the barrel pressing into his skin, just above his heart. "Do it," he whispers, inches from my face. I hold his gaze, while his hands snake under my shirt, grazing my skin. "I dare you," he lowers his voice, so gently, "Shoot me." My finger curls around the trigger, an inch from pulling it. I glare into his eyes, "You're a fucking monster," I whisper. He nods, "I know." "You kill without remorse," I spit. "I know." "I hate you," My finger screams at me to pull the trigger. "I know." "I'm disgusted by you."

But no less than I hate and crave him in return, as obsession flares between us. He would destroy the whole world for me, as long as we don't destroy each other first.
