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?

Lily noticed that their car wasn't heading toward the project building. She asked, "Where are we going?"

Raven turned to look at her. "Somewhere that might answer all the questions you have."

Lily didn't say anything else; she sat quietly in the car until they arrived at Raven's mansion. The car drove inside the gate and stopped. Raven opened the car door and held out his hand for Lily to hold.

"Welcome to my house," he said to her, watching her closely to see if she would remember.

Lily looked around the house. It was getting dark, but she noticed a flower garden that had weeds almost covering it.

"Do you not take care of the garden? The flowers are going to die," she asked Raven as they walked inside the house.

"It's waiting for its owner to come back, I guess," Raven replied. When the door opened, Lucy was the first to welcome them.
