Naomi Mitchell is a 24-year-old college student at Neon Valley University, currently in her final year. For the past six months, she has also been working as an assassin. Though new to the trade, Naomi is smart and a quick learner. She also has two close best friends, Julian Moore and Zuri Wilson

Naomi grew up with limited contact with her father, seeing him only on her birthday and special holidays. Instead, she was closest to her older brother and her mother. But what if her father is secretly her worst enemy?

Arien Parkers, also 24, is an experienced assassin and Naomi's rival. Like Naomi, he's in his final year of college. Cocky and a tease, Arien loves to get under Naomi's skin, and she despises his arrogant attitude. Their rivalry has been fierce ever since Naomi entered the world of assassins.

Despite their animosity, neither can deny the other's attractiveness. Yet both stubbornly refuse to acknowledge any deeper feelings.

Their world turns upside down when they are assigned to work together on a mission. Forced to cooperate, will they overcome their rivalry and uncover hidden truths about themselves-and perhaps about Naomi's father?

Two months into the rough whirlwind of high school, Adam Winters is already used to being the favorite target of fists and mockeries. Not everyone seems to be bugged by his quiet, eccentric nature, save for the 'pretty' ones. The ones with a comfortable background. The ones at the top. When the evidently attractive transfer becomes his seat neighbour for the rest of the semester, Adam is naturally wary---partly because of her brawny sibling in senior year, and partly because she meets all his criteria for people to avoid the most: pretty, rich, and popular. With an angelic smile, twinkling sapphire eyes and ribbons in her blonde hair, her persona screams perfection. A level he won't be able to achieve even in his quirkiest of daydreams---not like he'd ever want to. After all, despite her peculiar choice of friends and her persistent efforts to win his trust, isn't she just another potential bully? ••• (Word count per chapter: 2,300-3,000)

"You didn't let him kill me? Isn't that what you've always wanted?" Ivy spat at me, she could pretend to be angry all she wanted but I knew she was scared. I imagined she's never been so close to death, her dark red hair was plastered to her chest and she was sweating. I took one more drag of my cigarette before chucking it into the bin and advancing towards her. She took a step back, I knew I wouldn't be able to touch her. She'd be long gone before I even reached for my gun. But that wasn't what I wanted. "It is. Believe me, Posion I want nothing more than you rid of this world, but no one else is going to be the one to do it. You understand me? I will be the one to finish you off, it's going to be my hand pulling the trigger no one else's. There is not a soul on this earth who gets to take you from me and I will destroy anyone who tries to."
