I only like it when I’m the instigator.Being the top female assassin in our guild gives me a lot of perks. My favourite? Not having to train the arrogant recruits, most of who will end up in a body bag before the year is up. My boss knows this, so as punishment when I “misbehave,” I’m forced to do what I hate train starry-eyed recruits so they might have a snowballs chance of survival.

Things are happening in the shadows, and I better watch my back before someone sticks a knife through it.Still, they better be careful because they aren’t the only masters of deceit here.If they want to play, I’ll play.I’ll be their funeral.This story is the first in a super slow burn why choose series.
