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?

When Lily entered the car, she turned to ask Raven curiously, "What happened? Why is Jeffrey here?" She asked, fastening her seatbelt.

Raven sighed, starting the car. He began driving, then he turned to look at Lily. "He is the first person you ask about? Is the blood on my body a joke to you?"

"I asked you earlier, and you said you feel better already. Don't tell me you're.." Lily's lips twisted into a sly grin.

Raven turned to glare at the girl, a silent threat that meant she shouldn't dare complete her words. "I'm what?"

Lily shook her head, "Nothing, I was going to say absolutely nothing." She turned her face out of the window and snickered a little.

As soon as Lily and Raven arrived at the mansion, they stepped inside their home. Lily stood at the entrance with a frown on her face. Raven turned when he noticed the girl was no longer walking behind him.
