Beyond a Glance
This story is completely written from my imagination. It has nothing to do with real world and incidents. Any character, event, business, place, incidents are fictitious. Any resemblance to actual person, living or dead, everything that actual happens that might be coincidental. This book contains mature theme and violence and some sensitive topics that might be triggering. I'm in my improving stage so please ignore some mistakes. After 6,7 chapters this story become very interesting so stay tuned for upcoming chapters. Please follow for more updates vote and comments and so as you are already here so enjoy this story.
