A Murderer's Lover
Raven is the most wanted criminal in the town of Domsville. Her tainted past taught her how to think, fight, kill and hide. The wildness in her blood is unmatched, and with her team of best friends, or partners in crimes, she could potentially end the world.
It's too bad that Raven's only desire is a life without running, with someone she can call her lover.
That wish may have been granted when her plan took a turn. She was to play the feelings of a man to gather a series of information that can earn her an impossibly large sum of money, then end him.
It's a pity that she fell into her own trap.
Now, only one question remains: would the man accept a lover with wildness in her veins and hand-caked blood?

Jean Luc frowned, "You're impossibly stubborn. Just admit the truth."
"I can promise that half the population reacts to movies," Raven raised her voice. "You're built like an alien, so it's no surprise that you don't understand and--"
Jean Luc rolled his eyes at her seemingly endless rant, then before he gave himself a chance to reconsider, he shut her up.
His lips on hers.
It did the trick flawlessly.

Chapter: Part Two, Chapter Twenty FiveRaven didn't care that she was naked.Jean Luc, on the other hand, did. He had made her slip into his oversized shirt.Lying beneath the wholly darkened sky peppered with sparkling glitter, Raven felt complete and content. One of her hands was entwined with Jean Luc, while the other gestured to the specks of stars, drawing an image of a face.The night was not silent. In the distance, the celebration of gratitude still raged. Raven had no doubt that citizens of Soardina were dancing and drinking, that children were giggling and fooling around, that Lydia and Sartac were enjoying themselves, too.She knew Darrow was taking his blonde girlfriend on a ride around the island, while Margaret was climbing until she reached a place where she could watch the movements of everybody. Dominic would be taking the time to impress people with his skills in computing and Zak would be walking around the city, collecting whatever people offered.Celie and Blake, on the other hand, would most probably

Chapter: Part Two, Chapter Twenty FourJean Luc gaped into the wardrobe room. Or more specifically, the woman standing within.She stared into the mirror, which reflected an image of a goddess. A man could only dream of being with her--a different breed. A wicked genius with the face of an angel. She wore an outfit that her sister, Celie, chose. It was insanely beautiful.Jean Luc matched with her, and so did their children."Done staring?" she spoke. As usual, she seemed to feel the weight of his stare.He looked away, flushing slightly."You look delicious" was all she said before brushing past him. Then, she headed towards the door. Something changed between them. Or perhaps, his view of her changed instead.He continued to like a murderer, but his mind did not attack him for doing so. Instead, they were encouraging him with the most beautiful thoughts of a future with her. It was ridiculous.Outside was filled with deafening noise, raging for a festival made for him. I

Chapter: Part Two, Chapter Twenty Three"How are things going with him?" Margaret raised a curious brow. She did not need to expand on her question for Raven to understand who she meant. "Better than I thought," Raven said with a wide grin. She sat on her bed, surrounded by rolls of bandages for her knife wound from the day before. "He's definitely choosing to stay," Darrow said, leaning against the wall. "How are you so sure?" Zak asked. Celie was in front of him, checking which outfit suited Zak best. "Because Blake practically has that guy wrapped around his finger," Zak said as a matter of fact. "He's not letting Jean Luc leave. Not after he finally finds a partner to start playing that boring game with." That was true. Even as they were in the room, letting Celie dress them up, they could hear the screaming of the two men in the gaming room. Blake had somehow convinced Jean Luc to start playing 'Human Apocalypse' and they've been yelling profanities at each other ever since.

Chapter: Part Two, Chapter Twenty TwoJean Luc decided that the city was beautiful. Domsville could barely even compare to it."Welcome to the place I hate most," Blake announced, then pointed to a garden. "The bugs here love me, but those assholes usually stay away from the rest of my siblings.""Raven asked for this place, didn't she?" Jean Luc questioned, already knowing the answer."Yes, and she made me plant the flowers with her." He rolled his eyes, then swatted at the air.Jean Luc bit back his smile as he looked at his surroundings and strode towards a relatively large house beside Blake."You'll be staying here for the few days you're here," he said. "Unless you hope to stay longer."The smile was immediately wiped away. "Here?" Jean Luc repeated. The place was where the entire crew lived, and he did not wish to sleep under the same roofs with a group of murderers."With the two little people," Blake replied, then opened the door to the house. Two faces appeared

Chapter: Part Two, Chapter Twenty OneJean Luc awoke to the sound of people.Outside the ship, voices erupted and cheered. Jean Luc couldn't make sense of it. He barely had enough sleep with the thoughts constantly racing in his mind.They reached their destination.Soardina. Jean Luc would be lying if he claimed he was not interested in what the city looked like. He could vaguely remember his mother uttering a series of praises for the place, carried down by the opinions of many. It sounded like a beautiful place, but Raven could have simply portrayed it as such.He knew her enough to know such plans could easily be carried out.Exhausted, he managed to get ready for the morning. He took the time to understand what the people outside their ship were screaming.Raven.They were cheering her name with all they got.In a less groggy state, Jean Luc was able to remember that Jay had said, "I think you'll be surprised how many people love and look u

Chapter: Part Two, Chapter TwentyJean Luc still could not believe the fact that Raven had raised his children without his knowledge. His mind was still racing even after he left them because they needed their nap.He needed drinks in his system, and he was thankful for the bar room. Darrow did not accompany him this time, and he was glad to be alone with his many thoughts.However, he was abruptly interrupted by a man."Ay, you mind?" he asked and pointed to the seat beside Jean Luc. The man seemed rather nervous."No, take a seat," Jean Luc replied, then took another sip of his alcohol."Thanks, man." He was definitely nervous. By his soft tone and little stutter, Jean Luc felt as if he had somehow offended him. The reason was very much unknown. "Ah, I can't believe I'm doing this right now.""Doing what?" Jean Luc questioned."Sitting beside you." He thought the man was a tad crazy if he thought sitting beside an ordinary person was surreal."Jean Luc," he i
