All Chapters of Broken Halo: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The couple made small talk as they drove, Alec asked about the friend Eden was walking with. She told him her name was Astrid, and they had been friends since high school. After about 20 minutes the couple arrived in front of the Hollywood sign and since it was evening, the sign was lit up. Eden had always wanted to go but never had time. You'd be thinking, she lives in LA and the sign is always there, or 'who hasn't been to the Hollywood sign living in LA?’ Eden. Also, Eden was from Canada, she's studying in LA on a scholarship, so she hasn't been here all her life. Moving from Canada was a little hard for her, it's been a year, and she was doing okay. She met Alec 4 months in, and he taught her so much. Eden also had a cousin in Korea who taught her everything there was to know about living here so Eden's move wasn't the most difficult thing. She could thank Eric, her cousin, for that. Eden was a Law major and a business major; she always thought of working in the business world

"What happened to him?" Eden asked curiously. "He was obsessed. So, I got a restraining order on him, I haven't seen him since, and it's been 4 years." Sienna sighed but remembered her current boyfriend and smiled. "Your cousin is a lot better, don't worry." Eden laughed and Sienna was glad she could make her feel a little better. After 2 rings, Alec picked up Eden's call and regretted it not even 5 minutes later. A phone call wasn't the most ideal thing, but it was better than a text. And Eden couldn't face Alec right now so the phone call it was. "I can't be with you Alec. I started to fall in love with you but after what you told me, I'm scared to be around you. I'm sorry. We're done." "That's what she said. Those were her exact words; fuck I don't know why I didn't listen to you Kai and I know your happy inside right now because you were right so fuck off." Alec quoted Eden and explained the situation to Malakai who listened with a straight face. Kai wasn't happy per say, bu

In all honesty, over the years, Eden changed a lot. A lot more than she'd like to admit. Gone was the Eden who would never hurt a fly. She'll admit she had some murderous thoughts about people. Like her professors or people who annoyed her, she wasn’t serious, but a part of her mind thought she was. That is why she regretted breaking up with Alec quickly. But at the same time, she fell out of love with him. She would always care about him, always love him but not so much romantically anymore. But Alec hurt her too. He told her he would hurt her if his boss asked him to. She knew it was a test but that didn't matter. Alec lied to her and hid such a big part of himself from Eden and that's what hurt. "No. Not anymore. Never again. Being scared is for the weak and I'm anything but." Eden answered confidently and Malakai nodded. Just the answer he needed. "That's exactly what I wanted to hear. So, do you accept it?" Malakai sat down opposite Eden. "What if I don't?" Eden knew there w

"One day Eden. I'll tell you one day hmm?" Malakai said and Eden nodded. Malakai was in awe. Eden’s eyes were so innocent, but she was the opposite. She had fire in her veins and embers in her eyes. She looked like she wouldn't hurt a fly but oh how wrong that was. She didn't strike anyone as a criminal, a serial killer. Maybe that's what made her so good at it. Part of Kai feels bad that he created a killer from an innocent angel. But another part of him was glad. This is who Eden was now and they both liked it. Besides, don't get me started on her name. Eden. It’s a garden in paradise. It's ironic that her name resembles paradise, but her actions will probably send her to hell. Her name was perfect for her. Eden liked not being afraid anymore. In turn, people were now afraid of her instead. She wasn't scared and that made her feel more powerful. In control of herself. She was living breathing proof that a girl was just as deadly as anyone else. "What do you say about us g

Malakai on the other hand was raging but he hid it so well. How can Eden just disobey him like that? This whole job was based on orders. He'll admit, Eden was the only one who would do something like this. Even Alec follows his orders, no questions asked. He wouldn't ever think of disobeying Kai. But Eden just had to be different. Eden was quite different from when Malakai first met her, she'd changed, maybe for the better since there was no more nice, innocent Eden who hated how vulnerable and weak she was. Now she was strong, confident, powerful and not so scared. For that reason, Malakai didn't regret making her into what she was, until now when Eden disobeyed him. He couldn't care less about the client; it was about orders. If orders weren't followed, it would be an issue in the future. It's happened before. He had an agent who didn't follow orders and soon went rogue, also trying to kill Malakai but he was the one who died instead. Which is why he needed to make sure everythi
