Luciano Many times I have heard what it is like to lie. Not only that, I also have experienced it. After all, it's all a part of the job. Breathing to humans is like lying is to demons. It happens so naturally that you don't even realize that you have done so. Unless you make a mistake, like I did. Never make the error of lying to the wrong person. No demons of any rank dared to be in my presence. Not even Lucifer came near me. I'll admit it, it hurt a bit. If he wasn't such a coward he would have been here already. Maybe he has experienced such a thing as I am now. The regret and grievance I feel. Oh, please. Like a heartless Archangel would know that feeling. Luckily no demon has the ability to read minds, for I would be the joke of the century. A demon. Regretting and grieving. Absolutely insane. Especially when it's an angel. Seraphina I've heard plenty of times, what it is like to be tricked and taken advantage of. From the simple humans to the tales of gods. And, how their naive foolishness led to their demise. I can easily compare myself to them. After all, I was tricked. And, even with all of those stories, I was not expecting it to feel as terrible as this. My own fall is nearing this very second. Unfortunately no one will be able to share my story. All of the people who have been deceived never got to say how it felt for them to be led to their death by someone they care about deeply. What happens when you lose everything? What is the point of a life with no one to trust? Nobody's home waiting for you to come back safely. Here is the answer for those of you not ready to give up yet. The point of living with nothing is to take back the life that is rightfully yours. That, my friends, is exactly what I'm going to do.

Fated Series. Book #2 "Be possessive of me, own me, keep me, because if you do then nothing and no one else can." - Maddox. My name is Maddox Vallero, and I'm dead. Well, that's not quite true. I'm alive in the breathing, walking, talking sense-but that's about where it ends. The ghosts in my head remind me daily that I'm just a shell. Physically present, mentally shattered. For years, I've let time slip past, ticking away like I'm still trapped in that coffin, six feet under, slowly losing pieces of myself. I gave up long before I even opened my eyes this morning. So when you see me smiling, promising you the world, it's all a lie. And you'll believe it, because I'm that good. Lying, cheating, tricking-it's my game. I'm a master at making you trust in the illusion, even as I turn around and steal everything back. But somewhere along the line, I tricked myself. Now, I don't know where my lies end and the truth begins. My sanity's as fragile as the mask I wear. Then she walked in. The executive assistant I was forced to hire-a woman who sees straight through me. I lie, and she calls me on it. I grin, and she tells me to drop the act. She's the one person who refuses to fall for my games, who somehow slips past every defense I've ever built. And with her, I'm starting to see the shadows I live among. Sounds simple? It's not. Life has its own twisted sense of humor, and fate is a cunning fox that delights in making things messy. I want her, but I've got attachment issues that could bury us both. She wants me, but her commitment issues make her run every time. And together, we're tangled in pasts that haunt us, presents that hurt, and futures that we're terrified to face. This is the story of what happens when two broken people collide, each one daring the other to start taking risks.
