Cruel Venom (This Story Has Stopped For A While)

I am trained to heal, but he is born to kill.

To the rest of the world, I am just an innocent medical school student. But my eyes don't crave the sterile white lights of the hospital; they crave him. He is the iron-fisted underboss of the syndicate. Dangerous. Lethal. Cruel.

Everything a good girl should fear, yet his cold-blooded nature draws me in like a moth to a flame. I fell first, helpless against the gravity of a man who looks at the world and sees targets.

To him, I am nothing but a naive distraction. He ignores my glances and dismisses my presence, treating my infatuation like a child's game.

He thinks the gap between our ages and our worlds is too wide to cross.
