Bane

Vengeance Is Mine, #1

Hope, and light… I have neither…

Bane

My life revolved around death, they told me I had no soul.

Until I met her, my Grace.

She brought a secret sunshine to my life, until she didn't. She left with my brother.

Then I met her daughter, and she desperately needed the skills I've honed over the years.

In the end, it didn't matter, all I knew was that I had to protect Grace's child.

I did what I had to do. I did it for my Grace, my own saving light.

My life might be over but I'll make sure she will survive.

In my dying hour, I was saved by an unexpected source.

A man who'd once been part of my dark world offered me a do over.

I took it and vowed to become a better man.

I then met Sarah.

Her warmth and friendship held me up on the darkest days of my recovery.

For the first time, I felt alive… for the first time I actually felt.

Now, Grace's child, Cricket needs me again. In fact, she needs the man I used to be.

The killer…The heartless assassin.

Can I kill again? If I do, will the beast in me take over?

Sarah

I lived in fear, people are hunting me for a crime I committed a lifetime ago.

I killed a man who deserved to die, then I ran away.

I've been running for a long time now and I gave up everything just to live another day.

But the past always catches up and now, the man I'm with wants me to face my past.

Can I trust this man with the whole truth and face my fears or do I continue to run?
