**Title: Shadows of the Past**
**Synopsis:**
In the secluded wilderness of the Appalachian Mountains, Nathan Kane, a retired assassin, seeks solace from a life steeped in violence. His only companion is Lila, a young girl he saved from the clutches of The Syndicate, a shadowy organization that once controlled his life. Nathan has trained Lila to be a formidable force, preparing her for a world where danger lurks in every shadow.
Their fragile peace is shattered when The Syndicate discovers their existence, forcing them to flee. With the help of Eli Turner, a former operative turned tech expert, they embark on a perilous journey to evade their relentless pursuers. Along the way, they encounter allies and adversaries, each with their own secrets and motivations.
As Nathan and Lila navigate the treacherous terrain, they uncover the dark history of Lila's birth parents, who were once key figures within The Syndicate. The revelations deepen Lila's resolve to fight against the organization that destroyed her family.
Their journey takes an unexpected turn when they encounter a mysterious boy, Eli, who claims to be an ally but hides a dangerous secret. As Lila forms a bond with him, they discover he is a spy for The Syndicate, sent to betray them. The betrayal tests their trust and forces them to confront their deepest fears.
Amidst the chaos, Nathan and Lila must rely on their skills and the help of their diverse allies-a priest with a dark past, a mercenary seeking redemption, a loyal doctor, and a brilliant computer expert working undercover. Together, they wage a war against The Syndicate, determined to dismantle its power and reclaim their lives.
"Shadows of the Past" is a gripping tale of survival, loyalty, and the relentless pursuit of freedom in a world where the past never truly lets go.

Crimson Veil
They were built by the Syndicate-trained to kill, taught to trust no one, and bound by the kind of loyalty that gets people killed. Lila Serrin vanished three years ago, leaving a body, a trail of fire, and a man who would have died for her. Now she's back in the world she bled to escape-hunted, exposed and face-to-face with the one person she swore she'd never see again. Mikiel knows what she did and why she did it. He also knows that Sym won't rest until she's a ghost for real this time. Together, they have one rule: survive long enough to burn the empire that made them. But the closer they get to freedom, the more dangerous the pull between them becomes, because in their world, love is leverage. A slow-burn, high-stakes story of trust, vengeance and the thin line between devotion and destruction.![Before the Morning [BEING EDITED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/26174814-256-k964973.jpg)
