The Devilish Assassin meets the Angelic Detective

"Fateful encounter of a cold-blooded assassin and a gentle detective: She wants to avenge her parents’ death, no matter the cost. He wants to redeem her and teach her forgiveness. One of them must give in. Merciless, fierce, vicious, and ruthless were the words that people would associate with her. That's how they would describe her, a living devil. Elle is known as the mysterious and meticulous assassin feared by both the underground syndicates and the government. But she finds herself helpless and at the end of her rope when she meets with despair on one of her missions. Erick, a chief detective, comes just in time to rescue the devil turned damsel. His kindhearted nature had led him to take the cold and aloof girl under his wing. With his protection on the line, Elle couldn't possibly get close to him in fear of being revealed. Can she let him into her walls or will she push him away, like all the others? Can he close his eyes to her crimes or will he punish her?" «»«»«»«»«»«»«»«» *Excerpts* "What if I had killed someone? What if I am a criminal, what will you do?" Erick kept silent for a few seconds, thinking. Elle could almost hear her pounding heart amidst the silence of their surrounding. Erick looked into her eyes and met her nervous gaze as he gave her his response. "If that is the case, then I will have to put you in prison," he said in a serious tone. Elle's heart sank when she heard it. She felt like her world fell into pieces. "So... if I ask you to surrender yourself to me, will you do it?" Erick asked her softly as he cupped her troubled face in his two hands. "Will you?... will you marry me Elle?" he added. Elle:"..." Erick took advantage of that chance when Elle was still in a trance as he brought his face closer to her and sealed her lips with a gentle kiss. -------------------------------------------------- COMPLETED [ 530 Chapters ] { Warning: This Book Features Mature Content [R-18] } Award: Writing Prompt Contest #93 First Placer- Villainess Female Lead Author's Other Book: 1.

Chapter 79: A Shoulder to Lean On

Police Authorities and Members of XXX Crime Investigation were shocked to see the scene in front of them. There were around 30 dead bodies scattered bathing with their own blood.

"This was a surprise attack. They were not able to fight back. Base on their wounds, a sniper did this, whoever did this, that someone is definitely a very sharpshooter. They had no time to retaliate." one of the investigators said.

"The bullets, it's some kind of M40 sniper rifle. This is a merciless killing." June said as he looked around the lifeless body of the victims scattered around.

"What is the motive? A robbery? Do you think Chief it was an inside job?" Bryan asked Erick.

Erick was silent, he was very occupied of his own thoughts.

"If this is a competition, I am wondering, why they left these high powered weapons if their motive is to sabotage the transaction? Are they just using some kind of diversion here?" June was doubtful.
