"Didn't you ask me to marry you? I permit you to wed me," said the raven-haired woman with a straight, blank face. "...Pardon?" "Let's get married." "...Weren't you the one who repeatedly rejected my proposal last night?" "Can't a woman play hard to get?" The man's face twitched. He could barely keep up with her, "Look, once you—" "So, you won't marry me?" A strange glint passed through the man's amber orbs which disappeared quickly just as it came by. "Who's to say I won't?" — In which a commander of a special unit under the PSIA found himself in a contractual marriage with his strange and mysterious neighbor. Little did he know that she's one heck of a little assassin.

"Are you ready for your first ever interview?"
"... Is this really necessary?"
I raised an eyebrow, shifting my attention from my camera to the beautiful young woman sitting leisurely in front of me. With a grin, I immediately replied, "Of course! This will be your very first story. Your fans would surely like to have a pre-interview with the main character of the newly posted and updated version of the book."
Repositioning the angle of my camera, I murmured to myself, "It has been a few months since the last time I updated. I won't be too surprised if I were to lose readers by now."
"Fans?" The young woman has a sarcastic look on her eyes as she smirks mockingly towards me, "We aren't even in the first chapter yet. How bold of you to directly lie to my face? We have no fans. Don't be delusional."
I ignored my character's obvious displeasure and clasped my hands in excitement, "Seeing how you look dashing as ever, let's start the interview then!"
Without caring for her response, I pressed the record button of my camera with a click. A red blinking light appeared in the upper right corner, indicating that it is now recording. The camera, which was placed right in front of me, was pointed towards the raven-haired woman sitting in the center of the room, capturing her figure in all black clothing with her arms crossed across her chest. Her long leg, clad in tight black leather pants, was draped seductively over her other. It was nearly impossible for me to keep myself from tearing up, like a mother watching her child who had grown up. She's just everything that I imagine her to be!
I began the introduction after tucking the brown strands of my stubborn curly hair behind my ear.
"Hello, everyone! Welcome to His Little Assassin's Character Interview! Where I, Aiesh, your interviewer for today, will have a question-and-answer session with one of the story's very important characters! As you can see, for this prologue, we have here as our very first guest the one and only main character who portrays Avyanna Collins, and is also widely known in the book by her other identity, Raven of the XYS!"
I ask her my first question with enthusiasm. "So, Raven, what is your role in the story?"
She replied, "A bloodthirsty killer." …without any hesitation.
"... can you elaborate on what you mean by that?"
"What else is there to say? I kill people."
My lips twitched as I became aware of her sluggish demeanor, who was currently scanning her black-painted nails in boredom. However, this did not deter me from doing my job as I continue with my next question.
"According to the script, you're an assassin for a well-known underground killers organization known for having a unique protocol for exclusively killing people who have sinned; what do you think makes you different from the other main characters with the same gender?"
When she abruptly stood up, I flinched. Every step she took forward mirrored the pounding of my heart. Anyone could see the danger in her glinting cold blue eyes, which kept me firmly rooted in my seat. My mouth was tightly shut as she came to a halt directly in front of my camera, reaching forward an arm to raise the lenses to her face. Her lips were curved upward in a seductive arc.
"Let me be clear: my story isn't your typical damsel-in-distress heroine with a cliché storyline of having a cold, intimidating, hot, sexy, and overly handsome knight-in-shining armor to save the day. I prefer to be the latter, love, but I don't save people; I kill them."
Ah, my child grew up to be such a fine lady.
Gently tapping the lenses three times with her left knuckles, my baby continued, "My story isn't for easily frightened cats who have heart attacks over small amounts of blood; such weaklings aren't welcome to step through my door; I prefer predators, someone who has the strength to enter my territory without being pushed back."
As when she's about to leave, I immediately snapped out of my trance. "Wait!! Last question! This is extremely important."
"Speak."
"Will there be any romance in the story?"
Raven seemed to freeze when I asked her a question. She didn't respond right away, but she returned her gaze to the camera and grinned.
"Oh, is that what you're all looking for? Don't worry, this is a romance story, after all."
She leaned in once more.
"Two people with opposing professions met. With a long history of being a star-crossed lover, that may or may not repeat itself once again. A savior and a killer. A knight and a joker. What if the two were bound by a contract requiring them both to take the sacred oath of undying love? Will the two end up saving each other from their own black hole as they fight for the same goal with never-ending lies and betrayals? Or will they remain each other's version of Pandora for the rest of their lives?
With a playful smirk, the raven-haired young woman pressed the button of the recording button without my permission, subsequently, the red-blinking light had stopped.
I sighed as I fixed my glasses. "I still want to ask a few questions, you know," I murmured underneath my breath.
Raven crossed her arms over her chest and raised an eyebrow at my sulking figure, "Miss Author, is your life that boring for you to waste your time conducting such pointless interviews?"
I snapped my head towards her and glared, "Hey! This ain't useless!"
I was honestly offended.
"Whatever."
"Raven!"
I shuffled in my seat as the door suddenly burst open, revealing another of my characters.
"Lei?"
"Oh, Ms. Aiesh! I'm so sorry to interrupt the interview but it's urgent. Mr. Black suddenly wants to summon us for a very important mission." He apologized as he scratched the back of his head.
I smiled. "It's fine. You can do your business, then."
"Thank you!" Lei grabbed Raven's wrist and practically dragged her out of my office.
"Hey, brat. Remove your hands off of me this instant."
"Sorry boss."
I shook my head, before reaching for the little notepad of mine sitting on my desk.
Just a few fixes here and there, then the first arc will be revised completely.
I just hope you are ready for the changes… ‘cause it will kinda tinee bit be different hehe.
See you in the next newly written chapters, readers!

Consequences."Let's talk about what you did with the request-command that I clearly told you not to do." Mr. Black's expression turned serious. He folded his hands before leaning forward to rest both arms on his desk. "Let me tell you the reason why I never told anyone about their existence, except to you which I now regret. I never would have thought that you would use it after all the warnings I gave you." Avyanna didn't retort. To be honest, Avyanna hasn't yet heard the reason why he forbade the request-commands from being known in the organization, which is the very first thing he did right after he stepped up as the head of the XYS. So she didn't have an idea how dire the situation really is. "I already told you about the consequences once an assassin utters the oath and requests a command directly to the head—they will either end up dead, or be stripped of their title as assassins and be thrown to them. The XYS will no longer be their homes, nor will they be able to go ba
2nd Arc“It’s always the past that made them the way they currently are. “—In a relationship"I have a boyfriend.""*cough cough* What did you just say?"The raven-haired woman boredly stared at her uncle, who stared back at her with a dumbfounded look as he pathetically wiped his mouth with a tissue.Even the secretary of his standing beside him stared at her with a mixture of shock and terror.
Hello! I apologise for the lack of updates over the last few months. The thing is, I had my first ever blue screen problem around the end of January, and I didn't have the chance to fix it until this Wednesday. Because my brain can't function or generate ideas while I'm not at my computer, I became inactive shortly after finishing the first arc. Sorry! The good news is that I was still able to use my Android phone to produce a few drafts for the second arc and even revised the entire first arc. Although I can't promise to update every day this month, expect the story to continue:) I'll make sure to finish my book before I graduate. I know I've lost a lot of readers by now, but that's okay. My objective is to finish my first book and use it as a stepping stone to becoming a much better writer and producing far more books than I could ever conc

48: Rotten Rules For SurvivalONCE AGAIN, THE scene changed."Is this them?""Yes. The other kid was injured all over but we had already checked, his body can still make it. It's a miracle that he's still alive. Fortunately, both are very suitable for the experiment.""I see. They're also twins, huh.""Yes. They are perfect for the projects."Evan had his eyes closed. So Avyanna couldn't see the two people conversing with each other, but she
47: The Twin's Promise.THE SCENE SUDDENLY changed."Brother! They're coming!"A cry sounded from his behind. Evan quickly turned around and Avyanna was able to see who it was.It was a thin child, with clothes made out of rags, running towards Evan with a desperate expression."Eli,"Evan opened his arms just as when the child fell forward to him.Only then did Avyanna realise that the body she was in became small. 
46: The First MemoryEverything was white.Like in an asylum, all four corners of the room were painted with nothing else but white. No furniture, no dust, no anything.And in the middle of that room was Avyanna.The raven-haired woman stood motionless on the white floor, barefooted, with nothing else on her but a white hospital gown.Where am I?Creak.She turned her head towards the sound. The door that was too unnoticeable to the eye was pushed open by someone. A woman dressed in a lab coat came in,
45: Flirt THERE HE IS. The person who will serve as Avyanna's tool in her pursuit to seek the truth about her past. Archilles Calisto. The man stood up straight from leaning against the door before slowly approaching Avyanna, as the two confronted face-to-face, he had completely shadowed her small figure. He had indeed lived up to his title as the Captain of SPADE.
44: "Independent" Unit DETAILS REGARDING WHAT happened last night at a certain college university in Shwirlan were all over the news just as the sun rose up to light the sky. A woman working for the media spotted the movements of the police and went to investigate herself, never did she expect to end up with a big scoop. Another cold case has been broken and 'solved' by a unit under the PSIA.
