FALLING FOR A VICIOUS MIND!

According to a wise saying, 'a person often meets her destiny on the road she takes to avoid it'. Twenty-year-old Lara Kingston, known by her code name Phoenix,, is a talented acrobat and a ruthless assassin. Thirteen years ago, Lara lost everything she held dear – her parents, her inheritance and even her identity. Everyone thought she was dead, a victim of a brutal assassination orchestrated by her very own extended family, her late father's twin brother. However, Lara lived, not as the adorable heir of the Kingston fortune, but as a reject, sold to the highest bidder and robbed of her innocence and will to live. Lara prayed for death to come quickly but was given a second chance at life by a dysfunctional, lethal gang family. Now, she will rain terror on every man who has ever crossed her path, especially the one who took everything from her. What would happen when Lara encounters a love-sick puppy who goes by the name, Dex Logan, – a man, who would do anything to thaw her frigid heart? Would she give him a chance at love, or would she rip his heart out for daring to love her? ******** Excerpt "I'll give you a choice: Number one, I take off my mask and you get to see my face and suffer the consequences. Number two, I walk away now, and you never get to see me again. What number will it be, pretty boy?" "Number one." Dex didn't think about the threatening clause behind the first option as he quickly made his choice. "Hmm... Is that your final answer?" Phoenix walked back to him and stared directly into his eyes. "Because, once I take off my mask, there's no going back. You will be in for a long and bumpy ride." "Take it off..." Dex reiterates, sounding like he was referring to something else than the mask. His eyes glinted with deep longing as he gazed into her glimmering eyes. ***** Hello readers... If this is your first time reading this book. Welcome.

The Control Room

Back at the Logan's mansion, Dex returned home all stitched up only to find a disoriented Max pacing around.

"Max, what the hell is wrong with you and where is Phoenix?" Dex asked impatiently while wincing slightly in pain due to the hurt emanating from his shoulder.

"S...sir, I...I... I..."

"Max!" Dex boomed fiercely, "I am in no mood for your stupid stuttering. I asked a simple question and I want you to give me a clear answer.."

"She left, Sir. She stole one of your cars and left." Max forced the words right out of his mouth while praying inwardly that Dex would not punish him for a crime that was beyond his pay grade.

"Did she eat something before leaving? What about the flowers I asked you to give to her? Did she like it?"

"Huh!"

Max gawked at his boss in bewilderment. He was expecting Dex to flare up and even punch him in the face for that unpleasant information.
