Xadina

When a psychopathic villain crosses paths with one of the heroes tasked with hunting her down, the last thing she expects is for that bright, sassy hero to be her prophesized soulmate.

****

Xadina's name is whispered on the streets, a lethal form of the shadows, wreaking terrifying havoc on the people who have wronged her. And if it means collateral damage, so be it. Growing up in a town that made her feel invisible and bullied her unleashed the need for revenge no matter the cost. And she's not going to stop until she finds what she needs to bring it all to an end, even if the world might burn in the process.

A stone, Zadrixard, is a myth, a weapon told only in books. It has the power to connect all the people who have wronged someone and bring them a slow, torturous death. Unfortunately, it has been lost for the past two hundred years, and Xadina is only one of many who has searched for it.

In addition to her search, several organizations have placed a bounty upwards of one million dollars on her head. So-called heroes go after her for the glory and the money, and she has no problem dealing with them. Until she crosses paths with a hero who is immune to her powers. And according to a prophecy, only her true soulmate cannot be hurt by her.

Dahlia is a hero, a different kind of hero. Unlike the others, she doesn't care about the glory or money. Her sole purpose in life is to bring karma to those who deserve it, especially the infamous villain Xadina. But a deeper truth reveals itself, thrusting them both into dangerous territory that neither of them is prepared to handle.

And only one of them can be left standing.
