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 school was finally over, Lily packed her bags quickly and rushed to the gate where she stood waiting for Raven. She was scared yet excited to carry out Maya's plan.

"Hello there, Lily," she turned to see Dylan waving at her with a wide smile.

Dylan stopped in front of Lily, "You don't look happy to see me. I understand, I didn't get the chance to thank you for saving my life yesterday."

"It's not a problem," Lily said, turning her focus on the road, with her hand clutching her handbag.

Dylan walked closer, "Seems like you're waiting for someone, your uncle maybe?"

"What uncle?" Lily furrowed her brows, not quite understanding what he was talking about.

Dylan pointed, "Oh, you don't have to be shy about it. I wouldn't tell anyone about it. But your uncle looks like a very good person and he is handsome too. I mean being trained by one's uncle-"

DON'T THINK, JUST ACT!
