A teenager, Harper Hollick, has currently removed herself from the upper-class group due to a situation that triggered her flight, leaving her to be left alone. But she quickly found herself with outcasts, the lower class, except now they've found themselves in a bigger situation, one that involves a kidnapping...and more. She finds out later, that what she had ran away from before has caught back up with her and now she has to face it all over again. ... "And they're hiding something." Harper comments, drawn into their summary. Luka looks over at her with a bored expression, "Well, no shit." Harper stares at him just as Malakai sighs loudly, "Exactly, Harper." His eyes judge Luka, "A kid and something more secretive than a kid." Aster sits up on her elbows with interest, "And what would that something be?" "My guess...take a good one for yourself..." He smirks in Aster's direction, "...what's the one thing that travels around this city like it's legal?" They all look at each other, necks twisting and eyes buzzing. Aster smirks back at him devilishly, "Drugs." ... -Third person POV -Enemies to lovers/Friends to lovers trope(s) -Short chapters ⚠︎︎CONTENT WARNING⚠︎︎ KIDNAPPING/DEATH/GUNS/VIOLENCE/SEXUAL CONTENT/DRUG MENTIONS/SMOKING P.S.

A princess, being swallowed by expectation, overlooked by those too loud to notice her pain. When fate binds them in an arranged marriage neither of them chose, it is meant to be a sentence.

Of Minds And Souls | ONC 2021
Astraea Flynn Asgard, daughter of Psyedon's greatest assassin, has just done the very opposite of evil; she has done good. After an eight-year chase and the capturing of many small-time criminals, Astraea finally catches, Yuxon - a notorious criminal - and brings him to justice. With this great accomplishment comes the reinforcement of her well-known label - hero. As the time of trial draws near, an embarrassing mistake by court advisors, results in the death of Yuxon. The death is classed as suicide and only a few are granted permission into the crime scene. Astraea, though the lead agent in the Yuxon case, is not granted permission. She, devastated at losing such valuable intel and suspicious of the secrecy surrounding the body, sneaks her way to the crime scene only to find out that Yuxon's death is most definitely not suicide. Trusting her intuition, Astraea follows a lead to find out the true events of that evening and just like that, everything falls apart. Secrets come to light and actions can no longer be weighed under the terms, good and bad. She begins to find herself weighed by the consciousness of her mind and the emotion of her soul. Mind and soul; gift or curse. She must decide. ~You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself to become the villain. -The Dark Knight~Complete
