ECLIPSE
Logically speaking, a lot of cracks had appeared at everything that Eclipse thought she knew about the Hollow and the reason why they supported her on the path to murder Malric NorthSteed.
Killing Malric NorthSteed was no longer feeling like it had been just a mission to them all along.
No, it now felt personal.
Far too personal if the mother of the man she wished to kill was once amongst their ranks in the Hollow.
Yet between the ticking clock in her head, and the need to sate her curiosity, Eclipse had no choice but to fall for the former.
Not when she could hardly contain the need to lunge for Malric NorthSteed whenever he was within her sights.
But at intervals, the latter won, and all she could think about was the name Star.
Once when the Bloodhound mentored her, he had made a statement that stayed with her for five years.
"The best assassins are not the most lethal killers. They are the ones willing to walk out of their mission alive."
