The Alpha and His Deadly Beauty

A/N and POEM

Author note: 

Previous title The Alpha and His Rouge Assassin. THE ROUGE IS NOT A TYPO. The people of City of Corpses chose the nickname 'Rouge Assassin' because of Scarlett's red hair. No. It's never meant to be 'Rogue Assassin'. Yes. I know the difference between ROUGE and ROGUE. And would I ever change the title in the future? Maybe. 

It's my characters' personal creative choice and those people did have cuckoo brains since City of Corpses is a very shady city to live in so... what can I do?

That being said, thank you for taking a chance on this story. Hope you like the characters here as much as I do to develop them. Hope the plot in this story can let you forget whatever you want to forget even for just a while.

P.S. This is the second story from the Dawnless Sisters series BUTT you can read this book as a stand-alone. If you have read Lyria's book and only want to know how Scarlett's story will converge with Lyria, go to chapter 85 until the end. 

And this book will also intertwine with The Emperor's Black Swan (still free until completion) starting from chapter 77 :)

***

At dawn,

A heart was torn

She realized love was a pawn

Before the day turned to morn’

No time to fawn

She must sing free her life’s lorn

At dawn,

She ran to the dark

The cold has grown

To make a mark of her own

She must be crowned

Dear, hide your frown

Hide your sorrow

Let your secrets drown

In the death town

At dawn,

Her hair flared against the night

Her eyes shone through the sand

A fire, a light

A destroyer of man

A red dot under the stars

Lovely, but full of scars

At dawn,

She would charm

She would fight

She would take revenge

She would bring fright

At dawn,

She is dawnless.
