Maya applied pressure to my wound. I hissed from the pain. "Stop fucking around." She rolled her eyes at me. Maya finished tending my wound, wrapping it with a bandage. As she got up to put the first aid away, I stopped her. My thumb rubbed against the cool skin of her hand. I pulled her to sit on my lap. My fingers ran through her hair. "You're doing it again." I ignored her, sinking my chin into her shoulder. "I have no idea what you're talking about." I placed small pecks on neck. Her breathing turning heavy. "Stop. Someone could walk in." "And? You think they want to watch? Shit, I would." _____________________________________ ~Maya Castillo~ Escaping her traumatic past, Maya and her brother, Santiago, run to New York.

Tried For Error
"Previously known as... Scarletstroke: Girl assassin" * No hesitation * No killing of children * No killing of innocent people * No emotions * And defenitely, NO falling in love ~ Those are the main rules code named Scarletstroke, former assassin Scarlett Gonzales lives by. She is a highly-trained, highly-precise and highly-dangerous killer who considers herself the same as any other businesswoman, doing 'just her job' and convincing herself that she is dealing with 'just her target' rather than a person. She succeeds in contract killing better than any known assassin that ever existed and successfully ignores all feelings or emotions, knowing that they tend to make the "job" not go as planned. So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head. Although, what she finds in that world isn't quite what she expected. Now, torn between duty and passion, Scarlett must decide if she pulls the trigger or if she becomes the target herself? Who knows, maybe he might be the answer to her deepest desires. Because her next target: Cayden Carlisle. +++ The culprit took in a deep, calming breath. "You may as well shoot me now, but just know that I am still going to kiss you." By the time he grabbed her waist with one hand and her wrist, connecting to the hand holding the gun, with the other... she was lost. Completely gone. She never stood a chance. His smell, his mouth, his soft growling noises. They were more than enough to disarm her. "I finally figured something out about you." He whispered, pulling her closer, trying to meld every part of her to him. "You display all your emotions through body language. In this case, your hand is betraying your mask." Every word of his was chosen for maximum impact. No wasted syllables, no extra breaths. Just facts.Complete
Mystery Man Revealed (Now Published so sample only)
He saw her that day, the first day she started working for his sick aunt. She was bubbly, vivacious, slightly crazy and stunningly beautiful. She made his aunt laugh and smile, like she hadn't done in years. She saw him that day too. She smiled and waved at him as though pleased to see him. He did nothing. He knew then that she was the innocent destined to lose her life to give him his immortality. The following day he had the windows to his sanctuary tinted so she couldn't see in. He could see out though. For the next six months before his aunt died, he watched her every day. At the funeral he couldn't take his eyes off her sombre figure.

What They Didn't Bury ✔️
"You know it's against the law to lie to a police officer, right, Miss Mills?" Silence hung like a thick smoke as Lane's tongue stuck to the roof of her mouth. Officer Casey's tone hadn't changed, but something in his gaze had. "I don't know what you want me to say, I'm sorry." Lane's voice was close to a whisper. They passed a gas station she didn't recognize. The inside was dark, like it had been closed for a long time. Lane's chest tightened. Something felt very wrong. "Where are we going?" She asked finally, voice tighter than she meant it to be. That earned her a sharp and fleeting glance, the corner of his mouth turning up like he was in on a joke she wasn't. "Don't worry. I'll get you where you need to go." ~ All Lane is trying to do is survive in a world that's already failed her. After a childhood spent bouncing between homes, a steady job, a place to lay her head, and a beater to take her from Point A to Point B were the small things she'd fought for. Lane was trying -- she really was. Her life was finally hers, and she intended to keep it that way. But of course, as the saying goes, "Men plan, God laughs." All it took was a glance. Lane froze. And then she ran. It wasn't supposed to be her problem. But the moment those eyes caught hers, she was thrust into a world she'd always tried to avoid. And she'll have to do more than stay quiet to make it out alive. ________________________________________ Completed ✔️ _________________________________________ PREVIOUSLY 'THE PRICE OF SILENCE' Title changed 06/09/2026 Highest Rankings: #1 - Resilience {08/06/2026} #1 - Witness {08/22/2026} #1 - Captivity {08/25/2026}Complete
