"I knew that if I didn't play my cards right, our story would end with her betraying me with gunshot to the head. For now, she was loyal. The question was simply of how long that blind trust would last."

Nick is an arms dealer in a war-torn country. Having cut everyone from his life, his only interactions with others are with his customers, a disgraced doctor running an illegal practice, and Acadia, an ex-military sniper and Nick's business partner. His routine of manipulating Acadia and selling weapons ends when he's contacted by a wealthy family with one job: get their son out of the country. The seemingly simple mission grows complicated as the boy's past becomes clear and Nick loses his control over his partner.

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)

In a world consumed by madness and anarchy, a former federal agent struggles to keep his grip on reality as he is haunted by his past. Driven by a fierce sense of justice, he joins a specialized task force tasked with uncovering the sinister underbelly of a city on the brink of collapse. People are injecting a mysterious substance into their veins, transforming them into mindless killers driven by a parasitic organism that feeds on their humanity. As the death toll rises and local law enforcement proves useless, Axel - a young ex-federal agent fueled by vengeance and redemption - must confront his own demons while working alongside a team of troubled individuals all fighting for their own versions of justice.
