"Tell me something, Maja," he began. He stared into her, his gaze sharp and piercing her soul, as if striking it could coax out the secrets it hid behind walls of steel and adamant. "Do you enjoy killing?"
  
  She straightened, staring back at him with a gaze as deadly as a blade. "What if I told you that I did?"
  
  ~~~~
  
  An assassin should have no loyalties to no one but herself, she thought different, and that was her gravest mistake. Maja is a descendant of a once-great empire built by Therian's - shape-shifting beasts now reduced to simpering slaves. An escapee of that fate as a child, she now earns her keep as one of Solaria's deadliest assassins. And as a result, her life revolves around death and the bounties on her head.
  
  Sold by an unexpected dealer to a general, there is no escaping punishment for her innumerable crimes. Unless she can wager a deal. Use her skills to become the bodyguard for the most dangerous family in Solaria that could have her killed with a single word.
  
  In a land where secrets hide and lies make themselves known, Maja will find herself caught in a web spun from decades of deceit and broken trust. And she must soon realize who the real beast is, before they decide that it's her.

He did not move from the spot where he stood. He did not hear Jace calling out to him. He did not notice the key slip from his fingers, making a little clang on the cobblestone floor. The only thing that crossed his mind were the words that he whispered out loud.

~How deep can the darkness take you... before you lose your soul?~ "Tell me," she said, because the emptiness inside was yawning, stretching, consuming and she suddenly needed something, someone, needed to feel anything other than empty. She hated being empty. And she didn't want him to be empty either. She remembered that. It was like a film had been lifted from her eyes and as she looked down at him, she understood something. With other people, she didn't have to be human. Even with Thorn, he simply knew her. Andreas made her feel human. She didn't know how to be human, didn't know what it involved or what she should do. Humans were fragile, humans could be broken, and Sin was already broken enough. But she wasn't as broken as him. And maybe it was that fact that had her reaching for him, turning so she was laying on the bed beside him, stretching so she could wrap her arms around him and hold him close to her. Maybe it was that knowledge that made her want to protect him from the world. Because she'd thought the gods cruel only to her. She'd been wrong. So she closed her eyes and breathed him in, then breathed out, releasing everything inside her until she was simply... Sin. And she whispered into his hair, softly, five more impossible words. "I can hear you screaming." Dropped into an unknown, dangerous world and thrown together by chance, two people are now in a race for survival. One, a dark sorcerer with a haunted past and a deadly reputation, and the other, a cursed assassin with a chaotic soul. Both are powerful, domineering, and arrogant. Neither are team players. And yet, they'll have to work together if they want to get out alive... that is, if they manage not to kill each other first. (A collaboration/co-write by @Michillie and @Literacy101)

"You're a Shifter." This caught me off-guard. A Shifter? I had heard of them, thieves and criminals that are able to shift to the Other Realm using shadows. Seventeen-year-old Adaria Feur is extremely confused when she wakes up in a room with no memory of how she got there, no memory of the powers everyone keeps telling her she has, and not a clue of how to survive a prestigious academy that is actually training teens into becoming agents for a secret organization called F.E.A.R. However, the thing that worries her most is the pair of amber eyes she keeps seeing in her dreams. They're so beautiful, familiar, warm... but dangerous. And she knows that they hold her whole world, whether she likes it or not.
