Knives Among Roses

Never Change

Never Change

Jun 25, 2017

"No one can save us but ourselves.

No one can and no one may.

We ourselves must walk the path."

- Buddha

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

I live by many rules. Some of which are more important than others.

Rule 1 : Trust no one.

In a life when one is always on the run, the trust of others can be the death of you. Sometimes junias can be a disadvantage. They hold us back.

They can wither. They can die easily. They can kill. And we can never forgive them.

Rule 2 : always carry a weapon.

The enemy always picks the most unexpected time to strike.

I eat enemies for breakfast.

Rule 3 : never fall in love.

That dangerous feeling is the reason why the world can never be without war. With love comes great danger . It makes people vulnerable. That's what I have always known.

The feeling of love is dangerous for a person like me. I can kill a person with just a wave of my hand. I can kill my spouse in my sleep. If spouses were legal in my society.

Rule 4 : kill or be killed.

I live in world where the only thing known is survival of the fittest. The strongest people can live. The weaker ones will die. That's how the world works.

Rule 5 : Never show too much emotion

The less emotion you see the smaller the chance they can hurt you.

Rule 6 : Never show mercy

I don't know why that's a rule, I don't even know what mercy is.

When you're me you would understand that somethings can't be changed.

Like the fact I killed thousands of people.

Or the fact that I can smile every time screams come out of my victims mouths.

How about the fact that killed the young ones.

And I liked it.

I don't have a soft side.

I don't make friends, I make allies.

I'm a world class assassin and won't change so easily.

Or that's what I thought.

Vitani Illea never had a normal life. She's part of an advanced superhuman society of criminals and terrorists called Serpentine. As an assassin and a mere military pawn for her father, Vitani never thought that there was more to life than being a murderer. She never experienced love since she was raised to be ruthless and merciless. When you live by the saying "Kill or be killed" you don't have many options.

When her gang of badasses have to live among the "junias" (the ordinary humans), in a college Vitani sees and learns so much. Soon Vitani finds herself falling head over heels for football jock Tames, and starts making new friends. Overwhelmed by this new set of feelings she discovered, Vitani struggles with her need to avenge the boy from her past and her wish to be human.

But sometimes you can't change what you are.

Self control was always sometimes she lacked. And when her new friends become suspicious... she must do what she can to protect them from the darkness that is deep within her.

But how long can that last?

And will Vitani be willing to risk everything for the man she loves?

From the author who gave you The Chronicles of Immortals, The new series Assassins of Thorns will truly sweep you into a whole new perspective of life.
