Her entire life has been submerged in darkness.
Its his job to bring light back into the world.
Chelsea
I fell in love with him before I was old enough to know what love was, but it wasnt until I turned eighteen that our friendship became something more. I thought we would last forever, but forever didnt include him leaving town without saying goodbye and shattering my heart in the process. Years passed and eventually, I forced myself to move on. I found someone, who for a while, filled the void left behind by Austin. Until his tone towards me turned darker, his words harsher, and his touch more painful. Escaping him wasnt easy, but I did it. Only now hes lingering over my shoulder, making his threatening presence known at every turn.
Austin
Seven years is a long time to be away from the person you love. Chelsea was my light in this otherwise dark and twisted world. Leaving her was the hardest thing Ive ever had to do but it was the only way to keep her safe. Ive put my job above all else since the day I left. Ive never allowed myself to look back on what I left behind. Not until my latest assignment brings me right back home and into Chelseas life.
Ridding this world of the most godawful people is something Im good at. Ive never hesitated to complete a job or question an assignment. But when I find out that my target is someone with close ties to the woman I love, Im not sure that I can sink into the darkness while being surrounded by her light.
