Angel
‘Before I sign, I want to know
Does she make any noise at all?
For example, does she scream?’
Promise
I haven’t spoken in a year.
Because even my name is a dirty lie told by my father.
When my silence threatens his campaign for governor, he finds a new way to punish me.
He promises me to the most feared man in all of New York.
Angel Sinclair.
The rumors about him haunt my nightmares.
A psychopath.
A soulless killing machine.
The Devil of New York.
He’s fighting a war to take over the city’s gritty underworld with his enemies circling ever closer.
And me?
I’m just a sacrificial pawn in his game of power and corruption.
I should probably just give up already.
But the last words I spoke out loud
They were a PROMISE to my mother as she lay dying in a pool of blood.
And I will do anything to keep it.
Even sell my soul to the Devil
