Looking back, things were amiss from the first time I met Dominic.Back then, I was still green at the job and had been badly injured. I'd also yet to develop a habit of sleeping with my targets.I sauntered into a bar, my black clothes concealing the blood on me perfectly. I drank myself half to death, feeling brooding and pessimistic. I couldn't help but think that my life was over. Being an assassin wasn't glamorous, and I kept getting injured.People kept trying to hit on me. I lounged lazily with a faint smile on my face, looking like a fragile little thing. No one knew I did the dirtiest, deadliest work in the world.I was annoyed, but I didn't let it show. Instead, I deliberately put on a show of pouring something into my drink while smiling mischievously, saying, "There's poison in here. You'll die if you drink it."They wanted to sleep with me, but they didn't even have the nerve to touch the glass because of my words, whether true or false.I wasn't bored because all th

The moment Dominic let go of me, I ducked aside and looked down at my hands without saying a word. He was so sick. Where had things gone wrong?He looked at me, making me jolt. I couldn't stop myself from taking a step back."Why are you hiding?" He smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes. "Anyone else would already be six feet under for trying to kill me so many times. Have I ever done anything to you? Come here."I couldn't tell whether he was being like this because he was drunk or because of my multiple assassination attempts. If he got mad and wanted me dead…I scooted toward him and pecked him on the lips. I had to appease him first. I was willing to take this loss for now. I'd have plenty of time to kill him in the future.Dominic's eyes darkened as he rubbed my earlobe. He said huskily, "That's a good boy."For some reason, the look in his eyes scared me. He braced both his arms on either side of me, tracing my features with his eyes. I couldn't really see the look on his fa

"You let another one get away, didn't you? What's the point? Look around—is there anyone to help you?" The director scanned the room, and the other kids shrank back, too scared to lift their heads.He smirked with satisfaction and grabbed my hair, snarling, "I told you to play the good kid, yet your new 'family' sent you back here in just a couple of days. If I were them, I wouldn't want you either. "You can't even smile. You're so gloomy that you almost seem like you're cursed! I should've left you in the trash heap where I found you!"My eyes burned with a feral intensity as I lunged at him and sank my teeth into his neck. Hot, wet blood flooded my mouth, and he collapsed. He curled into a ball and howled in pain.I spat out the blood, my face devoid of emotion.That night, I was punished. Winter at the orphanage was brutal. The house had heat, but outside, the howling wind could freeze one stiff. I huddled against a tree to block out the cold when a voice came from above."Do

I glanced behind us warily and whispered to Nathaniel, "They shouldn't even know me. Why do they hate me so much?""Because of your man," he answered.I was baffled."Drake Harbor was targeted from the start. Dominic took care of it before handing it over to us, saving us a huge headache," he added."That's a good thing, isn't it?" I asked."But he showed his face, and their focus shifted to him. He beat the crap out of them, saying it was revenge for his boyfriend. Now, they're itching to get back at you." He pointed at the scar-faced man in front of us. "You should recognize this guy."I studied the two crisscrossing scars on his face. "I remember I only cut him once…""The other one's from Dominic. He called it a couple's set."I was speechless as I shot Dominic an exasperated look.Scarface approached with a group of armed men. With a wave of his hand, they swarmed and surrounded Dominic. A dagger was pressed against his neck, drawing tiny beads of blood. He didn't even re

Once Nathaniel and Will were gone, I couldn't stop myself from asking Dominic, "What exactly did you say to him?"He didn't answer. Instead, he pulled me into his arms. "Are you still mad? I know I messed up. I just wanted you to stay by my side so badly."Sometimes, I got the feeling that Dominic was a lunatic. Then again, the fact that I wasn't remotely scared of him probably meant that I wasn't exactly normal, either."Dominic, do you know what I was thinking when I rushed in to save you?" I asked.He looked up, his gaze locking onto mine.I said, "You were like a princess kidnapped by a dragon, and I was the prince. In my story, the prince always saves the princess. It's just like how you appeared before me back at the orphanage. I'd never believed in fairy tales, but in that moment, it felt like I'd really seen my savior."Dominic's eyes widened. "You remember now? When…""The day you went at me so hard that I got a fever," I said.His eyes darkened, and his voice was roug
