The Hitman’s Sunshine

Lily gulped, it's the 'devil'. She said in her mind with her hands still trembling. Raven picked the phone from the girl's hand, turning it off, he said, "You don't want to do that. Now run along and forget everything that happened here, little girl." His voice low and chilly to the bone. _ _ _ Sunshine Meets Grumpy He's a hitman, a hacker, a serpent slithering through the city's underbelly. Not a hero, not even close. The mafia's ghost in the machine, shadows his only companions. Then, there's her. Bookish, buried in debt and dreams, juggling endless shifts and late-night study sessions. Sunflower yellow amidst the grimy alleys, oblivious to the danger lurking beneath her hopeful smile. "Plain," they call her, "basic." But her light, it's undeniable. One fated night, a muttered curse, a stolen glance. Their worlds, oil and water, are destined to collide. Can sunshine melt the frost around a killer's heart? Or will their tangled destinies ignite a storm that consumes them both?

THE DRAGON, THE PRINCESS AND THE KNIGHT

[MUSIC RECOMMENDATION: SAVIOUR ~ IGGY AZALEA]

Raven turned his car and went back to the flower shop. If Lily's blood was found at the scene, it would be a hassle. He decided to take precautions and stop the result from leaving the scene.

Lily bit her lips nervously, her heart pounding. "Will they arrest me for murder?" She asked, afraid of meeting the same fate as her brother.

Raven moved his gaze from the road and looked at the girl briefly. "Puffin, do you think I'll let that happen?" He asked.

Lily pressed her lips, locked her green eyes with Raven's brown ones, then looked away.

"You have a long way to go in trusting me," Raven muttered. He didn't say anything else until they got to the flower shop.

Lily's mind raced when she saw the police van parked in front of the shop. She rubbed her clammy palm on her body, her eyes darting left and right until she saw Jeffrey standing with someone dressed in all white overalls.
