In a world that runs on blood and secrets, love was never part of the protocol.
By day, Vaerin Vasiliev is just another MedTech student - sleepy in lectures, buried in lab reports, and constantly smelling like disinfectant.
But when the sun sets, the gloves come off - replaced by black tactical ones.
No one knows her precision with syringes isn't just for lab work.
Then there's Caex Lior Caliron - the batch's golden boy. Smart, composed, and the kind of guy everyone adored.
But he fell for the girl who was too makulit, too sharp, and far too mysterious for her own good.
"Hindi ko sinadyang mahulog sa'yo," Vae whispered once.
"Habang tinatago ko ang lahat ng dugo sa kamay ko."
When Caex vanished, she thought it was the organization. Until she discovered the truth.
Now, she's no longer just retrieving for the organization-
She's retrieving the truth, and maybe, the heart she accidentally lost along the way.

"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.

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.

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
