The Assassin's Remorse
A Fantasy Short Story by J.M.D. Reid
Book 2 of the Jewel Machine Universe Series
"What had she tried to say to him at the end?"
New, revised edition!
Cerena's face transformed in the last moments of her life, the fear fleeing, and a strange, calm serenity overtook her. Her lips moved, whispering three words.
The Assassin was forever changed.
A decade of blood stained his hands. None of his victims had ever weighed down his conscience. He was merely the tool, the living weapon wielded by his employers. His victims had begged for their lives, had cursed him with their dying breath, and stared in uncomprehending disbelief.
But none had ever been calm in their final moments. None had ever stared up at him with such serenity.
Cerena's blue eyes and her final words haunted the Assassin. Three simple words plunged his soul into torment.
Could a heart that had long been dead and desiccated beat with remorse? Can the Assassin survive against the crushing weight of his crimes? You have to read this exciting fantasy story to find out!
