"She knew he was the loveliest man she'd ever seen--and probably would ever see.
And she had to kill him."

The out of balance world requires a physical embodiment of light and dark. Raised in the woods by her guardian, the only thing Mila knew about her other, darker half, Ashton, was that he wanted her powers badly enough to kill her. 

That is, until they meet: nothing goes as planned, and they're inexplicably drawn to each other, in every sense. Mila is learning she won't get rid of Ashton so easily, nor is he the real enemy. She'll have to find another way to achieve harmony for the world-and it looks like the solution resides in Ashton.

"I saw you and you were just standing there. I started walking towards you and you-just-just stood there." Stuttered Stiles. "I tapped on your shoulder and you turned around. You didn't answer me. You didn't even notice I was there. You just stared at something, something that wasn't visible and y-you-" Paused Stiles, whose legs were vibrating and he started to breathe heavily. "And I what?" I asked trying to get the words out. "You died." He stated. "What?" Asked I, like he had just said the most craziest thing ever. It was slightly humorous. He had to be joking, I thought to myself. "You- just died." Murmured Stiles, who had stopped shaking and had stood up. -------------- The world consists of many parallel multiverses. Each separate and unique.
