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?

The Hitman’s Sunshine

Raven didn't want to let go of her for a moment; he was filled with so many emotions. The fear he felt when he saw her bleeding through her nose and convulsing, he was scared that he would lose her just because he wanted to have her. The nervous wreck when he didn't even know what was going on, and the pain she must have been through walking to him while trying to stay awake when she was hurting with overwhelming memories. It tugged at his heartstrings that he didn't want to let her go even for a moment.

"I love you," Raven whispered, "I love you, Lily," he said to her in a low voice.

Lily smiled, tears of joy flowing down her face. She felt like it had been ages since she saw Raven. A lot had changed about him, but he was still the same. The same man that saved her over and over again, he never gave up on her. "I know, Raven, I know," she replied with her head buried in his chest.
