Sometimes there are events that shape the course of our lives for better or worse.
Bill has just been through a great tragedy, losing people he loved more than anything. If he can't get it together he can lose his house, job or even his very life.
Meanwhile, a new character has drifted into town. Dante is trying to also put his rough life together, but things are on the upswing for him. If he can keep his wits, make some smart money, and "persuade" just the right people, he can cement his position in the seedy local underworld.
These two characters are on similar journeys and will crossover in a way that will that will isolate them completely, testing them to see how far they are going to achieve redemption and damnation, and whether or not either of them really deserve it.

The Traitors
The Mallard Corporation was one of the largest research and development labs in the Eastern Division. After several years of testing, they released a serum to the public said to enhance pre-existing traits within a person's genetic makeup. The distribution was a success, but the aftermath declared the serum defected. People were developing unnatural abilities and began reeking havoc within the city. A recall was in order and those who had taken the serum, now referred to as Traitors, were gathered up to be transported to a holding location until these Traits could be removed. While some had uncontrollable Traits, others had Traits which were easier to hide so they remained inconspicuous to the public eye. Logan Fierce was constantly battling the demons in his past. It had been three years since his release from Mal Corp, but the trauma he faced was ever present. Determined to fulfill a request left behind by a friend, he encounters Phoenix Monroe; a fellow Traitor who was predicted to change his life forever. Follow their journey in this dual POV as they jumpstart a series of events which would lead them to discover the truth hidden within Mal Corp and the betrayal which is closer than they think. **This story contains adult themes such as: strong language, abuse, sexual situations, self-harm, and violence** Sensitive chapters which may be triggering for readers are marked with asterisks. *If any of the following are triggering for you as the reader, please don't read or read at your own discretion.

╰┈➤ ❝ [I stood there in unequivocal revelation, the lagging pain slowly catching up with me, but before I could release a fraction of the pain into my screaming, a bell rang, and suddenly, pilfered from my body was the ability to move. My face neutral and my muscles disabled as I fell face-first into the hard, scathing rock that lay unmoved before me.] 》* 。 • ˚ ˚ ˛ * 。° 。 • ˚《 Imagine awakening in an environment you deemed unfamiliar, your back thrumming in pain, with your mind staying clear of how you ended up there or simply the moments that lead to your position. You try to find a way out and later realize that you can't even remember who you are; your memories purged, your identity unknown. It takes you a good amount of time, pain, and effort, and eventually you manage to gather tiny fragments of who you were along with the trauma of how you retrieved it, but it's okay, maybe it's all worth it as you finally make contact with another person. Turns out she was your best friend. Finally, it looks like all is turning up until you learn of all the inhumane things you've done in your past, things that evade your newfound morals, things that were so detrimental to society that when you hear the reason as to why you've been enduring such agony, you understand why. How many people did you even end up hurting? What did you do that was so bad, that it made millions wish the absolute worst of you? What will you do now?Complete

But don't worry, the villain's got it under control... or so they think. You thought their love story was one of those sweet "enemies-to-lovers" kind of deals, until you saw the truth from way up here. It's a mess. Betrayal. Anger. Love. Secret identities.

Maybe you're the one who's been flying around, wondering if their messy, secret love story will ever have a happy ending-or if one of them will end up on the wrong side of the city's skyscraper (literally).
