I’ve always hated my birthday. Mainly because that was the day my insane father did his “survival” test. He had this idea that I was going to succeed him in his “business”. Basically he was training me to be some kind of super assassin from the time I could walk. Anything from hand to hand combat to guns and archery, I had to master it. He worked for the largest drug lord in the US and wanted me to take over for him when he decided to retire. Unfortunately, besides being inane, he was incredibly paranoid. Everyone was out to get him and his heir, me. To keep me “safe”, he sent my mother and me to live with my grandmother in France. That was the best thing he could have ever done for me, I would always be grateful for that even as I had the gun currently pointed at his head.
