I had no idea that at the age of seven my parents would die.I had no idea that their death would thrust me into a world full of blood and death.I had no idea the boy I met there would become a part of me.I had no idea this path that started with a car accident 17 years ago would end with me shot and running from him.
"You were made for this life." Those words are a truth spoken by the people who trained me, taught me, created me. And I was created. Crafted to be an image of perfection and beauty, all designed to hide the killer they created. The deadly little thing on the inside no one saw coming.
Marcus was my everything, and I was his. Raised together, what one did, the other followed. Unfortunately, time and ego, obligations, and love would ruin it all for us. A bond neither of us thought would ever break shattered with a hail of bullets.
"Listen to your instincts." They tried to teach me this lesson, but where Marcus was concerned, I never learned it. My love for him, our history together, our life? My life? All of it broke something in me.
But then I met Jake, and he pieced things back together in me, things I thought my dark little life had irreparably destroyed. I would have walked away for him, left it all behind, but you don't become what I am or how good I am without making a few enemies along the way.
