Summary: International hitman Kylo Ren meets his match when he goes after the same contract as Rey Niima. Intrigued by the knife-wielding assassin, he proposes a partnership. But when both parties are keeping secrets, how can they move forward and learn to trust each other?

Chapter 11 Excerpt: Rey blinked against the warm light laying across her face. She rolled over and felt her body cringe in protest. Thanks to the man sleeping aside her, she was sore everywhere.

Kylo’s hair was tousled, black strands haphazardly strewn around his face and contrasting against the stark white pillow. There was no smug grin on his face or any tension in his brow; he appeared to be at peace.

Her lips twitched as she attempted to hide a smile. She didn’t want to give her partner the satisfaction of being right, no matter how true it was. Unconsciously, Rey reached over, fingertips barely brushing along his forehead to push his hair out of his face. As she drew her hand back, Kylo grabbed hold of her wrist.

“And where do you think you’re going?” he rumbled, voice laden with sleep. He hadn't even opened his eyes yet.

“To get dressed,” Rey replied haughtily.

“You don’t need to do that.”

Chapter 12 Excerpt: Rey wondered what Phasma would say if she confessed to everything. Would the casino owner reprimand her for getting in over her head? Would she mock her for letting Kylo get under her skin? Would she open a contract on Rey? Or worse, Kylo?

She sighed, unsure what action Phasma would take. One thing was certain of though, was when Phasma discovered Rey was in a partnership with Kylo Ren, they’d have words. Rey just needed to be prepared.

Phasma wasn’t an active assassin anymore, but that didn’t mean she didn’t know her way around a weapon. The woman was as cunning and cold-blooded as they came. Rey would never underestimate her. She would advise Kylo to do the same. Just in case.

As if hearing her thoughts, she heard the bedsheets rustle behind her.

“Rey.” Kylo’s voice was low and unwavering. “Come back to bed.”

Chapter 10 Excerpt (Rating: E)

Overwhelmed.

That was the only way he could describe the sensation he was experiencing. From the moment Rey had arrived in his room, to when she drove her blade through Netal's thigh, he felt consumed by his need for her. It went beyond initial attraction, beyond carnal desire, and beyond the primal urge to secure his place with her. She became all he could see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste.

He was overwhelmed by her.

Sanguis Sanguinem Meum (Blood of my Blood)

Chapter 7 Excerpt: “So about the phone,” he began. Rey raised her eyes from her task to his face. “I had an associate of mine trace it back to its source.” Her hazel eyes went almost completely green at his revelation. “You want to tell me what your tie to Canto Bight Casino is?”

Rey went back to cleaning her blades. “Not particularly,” she replied.

Kylo settled into the desk chair across from her. “Partners need to be honest with each other.”

“Maybe, but they also need to know when to butt-out of other people’s business,” she retorted.

“Your business is my business now, sweetheart. That’s what a partnership means.”

She glared at him, gold flakes breaking up the emerald coloring of her eyes. “What’s with the name?”

“Excuse me?”

“I’m not your sweetheart,” she protested.

Kylo smirked.

Chapter Six Excerpt

He was crossing Avenue Mac-Mahon when he heard gunfire ring through the night. The clap of the shot was followed by a series of cries from onlookers and the wailing of sirens. Guns were outlawed in France and although that didn’t stop anyone in the First Order from carrying, he wanted to avoid any unwanted attention.

Kylo ducked into the nearest alley, cautiously peeking around the corner to check the street. It was vacant.

Slowly, he stalked towards the Continental, his forefinger on the trigger of his Heckler & Koch.

As the hotel entrance came into view, he scanned the area for signs of a fight. There weren’t any attackers lurking in the shadows or pedestrians illuminated in the Continental’s welcoming light. He imagined they’d all run off, startled by the gun’s blast. It wasn’t uncommon.

What was uncommon was the deserted street. Suspicious, Kylo glanced around for a discarded blade or shell casings. That was when his cell rang.

“Unknown Caller’ flashed across the display and he immediately knew who it was.

Chapter 3 Excerpt

“Did you hear about what happened in New York?” Mitaka questioned, breaking Kylo out of his murderous thoughts.

“You’ll have to be more specific,” he muttered in a bored tone.

“Three new contracts opened up after Plutt was taken down. Teedo, Ducain, and the Irving brothers. Rumor has it that one girl is going after them all. Some people think she has a personal vendetta against them,” he informed Kylo. “But I think it has more to do with the contract amounts. They are each priced around $1.5M.”

Kylo stared at Mitaka. Even though he already knew the answer, he asked. “What girl?”
