Crossed Blades

Aral Kingslayer has traded his days of stealth and blades for a life that’s anything but ordinary. After six years of evading his dark past as a temple assassin, he now navigates the shadowy underbelly of society, taking on odd jobs that keep him just on the right side of the law—or sometimes a little beyond it. But peace is elusive, and old foes lurk in the shadows, ready to pull him back into a world of violence.

Just when he thought he could leave behind the chaos, a flicker of danger calls him back to the life he thought he had escaped. With his skills in high demand and ghosts from his past resurfacing, Aral must confront not only his former enemies but also the profound cost of the choices he’s made. Filled with intrigue and hard-hitting action, this story delves deep into the heart of a man caught between the shadows of his memories and the light he desperately seeks.
