"What are you doing?!" the voice screeches from my earpiece. "Take him out!"

I squint through the scope, my eyes narrowing in on my target. It was indeed him. It never occurred to me that he would eventually be on of my targets. But that didn't matter. I carefully position my finger over the trigger. And then it happens.

His light blue eyes meet mine.

A tremor of an unidentifiable feeling washes over me. I was frozen in place. 

"Sagittarius! What are you doing? Shoot him!" the voice screams.

But I can't.

***

Her life is quite simple. Find your target. Point the gun. Shoot.

She has one job and one job only-kill. 

Until one day, one look changes everything. Kayleigh begins to question the life that she has been living. Because now, she doesn't want to be the one holding the gun. But how can she change if all she's ever known is how to kill?

I watched as the blood seeped through the white fabric, staining her once white bridal gown. I cradled her in my arms while covering the gun shot wound with my bare hand. Her breath was shallow and labored. She stretched her arm reaching my tears-stained cheek, stroking it with her soft palm. A single tear escaped her eye, sliding to the side. "Don't leave me, please!" I pleaded. Her shivering lips flashed a half smile. "I'm afraid I...I c-can't keep my promise...'' "No...No! You can't leave me Rhel. I won't allow you to,'' I interrupted her, "You're going to be fine...and then w-we'll have our honeymoon. Please don't go. I'm begging you. Don't let go...'' She took a deep labored breath, "I'll always l-love you, L-Luke...'' Before I could reply, her hand went limp, leaving my cheek and her eyes draped close. ~ What if the CEO of a multi-billion dollar company and the city's most handsome playboy fell in love at first sight to a smart and serious photographer, who hates and despises him the most.

[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living. She had good friends, good grades, a happy family, a loving boyfriend, and an overall content life, seemingly having everything a person could ask for.

In this hectic adventure of gun fights, torture, bank robbing and intimidating mafia men, Liza has to face it all, putting her average life on the line in order to defeat the bad guys and go back to her normal way of living.

Prologue Brianne Keaton James (Bree) is just a normal teenager. Well if you think normal is a 17-year-old girl who possesses all information known about gun types, bullets and their equipment...but most importantly who is rated the second-best sniper after her father, Jason James. She just graduated from high school and it's her dream to be enlisted into the Army once she turns 18 to follow in her father's footsteps. They move around a-lot thanks to her dad who by the way is hardly ever home due to always travelling for his job, so Bree never really got to know the towns, hell the only think she learned was where the shooting range was and how to get there. Currently living in Dallas, Texas with her dad overseas on a mission, she frequently visited the shooting range to keep her busy, but little did she know that her whole life was about to change one day after she met Agent Mark Steel while she was practicing. Agent Mark Steel travelled from Denver, Colorado to Dallas, Texas in hopes of recruiting Bree for her outstanding skills she possesses to help Agent Mark and his team in tracking and assassinating the seven deadly Psychics and since Jason is overseas, Bree is the next best thing. Although still slightly stunned over the fact that psychics exits, Bree accepts the offer to be a temporary member of the TNK group where she meets the mysterious Reece who she is drawn to unlike any other. He is sexy, strong and charming but unfortunately a complete jerk towards Bree and treats her like a child. Agent Reece Garret and his team are unlike any other who are hiding a big secret. They are immune to the psychic's powers, which makes them the best team to do the job. Will Bree find out the secret before it's too late or will something bad happen? - Cover photo, title and story plot is credited to J.C. DIEM for her amazing writing.
