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?

FORBIDDEN FRUIT

Seeing how the girl squirmed even before he could touch her dragged the reins of control Raven was trying to hold tightly. He could even imagine the sweet sounds she made every time he touched her in the past, and he wanted to hear more of it now. Without holding back, Raven's finger grazed her chest, where her heartbeat increased simultaneously.

"M- Mr. Ryker..." Lily breathed in, on feeling the finger that almost brushed her breast before moving to her neck. She was trying hard to hold her resolve, but the walls she thought she had over her life to guard her were just melting like ice before this man. Who was he? She asked herself.

Raven didn't stop; his fingers faintly curled round her neck possessively as he gripped it not too tight but enough to raise her face.

Lily's eyes flew open immediately, "W-hat are you doing?" She whispered, under the cage of the predatorous coppery brown eyes that locked her in.
