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?

A STEP FORWARD

[Music Recommendation: While You're At It ~ Jessie Murph]

Victor raked his fingers through his hair, ruffling his well-styled hair after Maya had left the room. He reached for the bottle of wine and, without using a glass, he gulped almost half of the wine. When he dropped the bottle, he exhaled.

"What the fuck is wrong with you, Luca?" he growled as if trying to suppress something inside of him.

Gabriel and Julian, who had yet to leave the room, exchanged a look. The room was quite awkward, and they didn't know how to act.

"You both can go ahead and get some sleep. We are leaving tomorrow, so get some rest," Luca waved them off. He waited for them to leave before he poured some wine for himself.

"What do you mean by 'what the fuck is wrong with me?' You weren't expecting me to let you both go on now, did you? I just did that to remind you both how you're just stubbornly torturing yourselves when the attraction is already there."
