*Republished and Slightly Rewritten Story*

Shadow is deadly. Found and raised by the Master, she was molded into the perfect assassin. 

The job was simple, even easy for someone with her skills and abilities, kill two children. However, when the time came for the end she couldn't bring herself to finish the job. 

Since then, Shadow has abandoned her Master and the Manor and taken up the mantle of guardian of the same children, Flitch and Missy. Her weapons and shadows fight to keep the children safe from those who hunt them, but all is not as it seems. The children were never a typical target. Their lives rest in Shadow's hands and with them, the rest of the world.

OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST - LONG LISTED Safety was never an option. She has nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. Nowhere safe to reside. No matter how far she runs or how quiet she hides, they always find her. She will never be free of her hunters. Theresa knows this, yet she still tries. Theresa has a curse, one that makes her deadly to everyone and everything. She destroys anything she touches, and there is no way to stop it from consuming her surroundings. Not only is she wanted dead for her dark magic, but because she is one of them. A Naturian; and those aren't allowed to exist, not in this new age. But Theresa has always been running since her limbs let her, and she doesn't even know what she is. It's only when he comes, that she finally understands who she is, and that she isn't alone. But she doesn't find safety. Safety was never there. ➴➵➶➴➵➶➴➵➶➴➵➶➴➵➶ WARNING - this is a very violent and graphic book. It is not recommended for anyone under the age of sixteen.
