Hello my lovelies!

That sounds kind of weird right?😅

I'm sorry, I've been away for so long, exams have been keeping me busy. But I just have 2 more months to go and I'll be free to write as much as you want me to😁.

Thank you so much for your patience, my last book, what the heart wants now has 118 likes and I have 39 followers isn't that awesome?!

So, to celebrate I have decided to grace you with a sneak peek into my new book NYX( it's not going to be in a third person's perspective, I just wrote it like this so you could see what was going on, on both sides) Enjoy!

She wrinkled her nose in disgust at the sight of the tall, white building and sighed.

Let's get this over with.

Plastering a fake smile on her face, she got out of the car to see the doorman waiting to go park her car.

" Good morning Ms Cupid."

" Good morning Trent!" She chirped with a fake enthusiasm; her left hand went into her white pantsuit pocket while the other carried her briefcase.

" Good morning Ms Cupid." Her other employees greeted with wide smiles as she walked past them; she offered them a wide grin in response.

" It's good to have you back Ms Cupid." Hazel Groves, the head manager greeted.

" It's good to be back. So, what have I missed?"

" Well, we are now ranked the 8th best match making company in the world with a 4.6 stars review, our sales have tripled since the last time you were here and so has the number of our clients that have gotten married."

" Hmm, impressive."

" Thank you Ms Cupid." Hazel grinned.

" I would like to see everyone here in the next five minutes, okay?"

" On it!" Hazel chirped as she scurried off.

" Good morning everyone!" She chirped with a blinding smile.

" Good morning Ms Cupid!" Her employees replied with a similar smile. Of course, Ms Cupid wasn't her name, it was a nickname she'd gotten for running one of the most successful match making companies in the world.

" Thank you for holding the fort while I was away, I've heard great news from Hazel concerning the progress of the company and for that, I am giving you all a huge bonus on your next paycheck!"

A thunderous applause broke out in the room.

" Keep up the good work! Have a nice day my little cupids!"

" And you too Ms Cupid!"

She didn't drop the smile on her face till she was inside her office. The chirpy persona was something she had to maintain due to the nature of her job. She plopped down on her chair and sighed.

" Ashley," She called through the intercom.

Her secretary entered the room almost immediately.

" Yes Ms Cupid?"

" I'm about to start working and I don't want any distractions so hold my calls for now; I'll let you now once I'm done okay?"

" Yes Ms Cupid."

As soon as her secretary left, she pressed the secret button underneath her table to reveal a door right behind her. She placed her right palm on the door and a beam began scanning it.

" Finger prints confirmed."

" Rex, open the door. " She stated.

" Voice recognition complete, access granted. Welcome, Nyx."

With a slight smirk on her face, Nyx stepped into her lair, her real office.

" Good morning Rex."

" Good morning Nyx, welcome back." Her automated assistant greeted.

" How was your trip?"

" It was great I guess."

" That's wonderful. Would you like to see the page?"

" Have the new protocols been put in place?"

" Yes."

" Alright then."

***

" Arthur what's taking you so long?"

Arthur spun around and glared at the blonde haired agent,

" I'm sorry, why don't you give it a try?!" He snapped.

" You do know we don't have all the time in the world right?" Chase muttered earning a glare from Arthur.

" Killian, Chase… behave."

Arthur turned to Ambrose who appeared to be the level headed one among the trio and spoke,

" I told you earlier, you don't find her, she finds you."

" But we need to find her." Ambrose stated calmly.

" Finding Nyx is not easy!"

"Doesn't she have a page or something?" Killian questioned.

" What do you think I've been trying to do?! Her page isn't stable, it always changes. Only people who are desperate go looking for Nyx."

" Just find her."

***

" How many requests do I have?"

" Five-"

Nyx raised her eyebrows in surprise.

" Just five?"

" -thousand. You have five thousand requests. Would you like me to put up the signal."

She stood in front of the large holographic screen and nodded.

" Yes."

" As you wish."

Let the bidding begin.

***

" I found it! So now all we have to do is solve the riddle. A man without bones with flesh so cold; An unthinking man yet always shrinking. Any ideas?"

" Let's just Google it." Chase said.

" No! If you do, she'll know, the page will be cancelled and we'll have to start all over again!" Arthur shrieked.

" How will she know?" Killian muttered.

" I don't know! Nyx has one of the most complicated systems ever."

Ambrose became even more interested in knowing Nyx's true identity. He began thinking of a possible answer.

" A man without bones," He mumbled.

" With flesh so cold."

" A dead person? Their bodies shrink after they die." Chase mused.

" But they have bones." Arthur reasoned.

" A man without bones, cold flesh, shrinking. What if it's not an actual man? What if it's not alive? A man that's not alive."

" A scarecrow?" Killian offered.

" A scarecrow doesn't shrink, and it's flesh isn't cold…snowman! It's a snowman." Ambrose stated.

" Are you sure because if it's not correct, we'll have to start over."

" I'm positive."

" Here goes nothing." Arthur breathed as he punched in the answer.

" It worked!"

The owl that sat on top of the comment box spread it's wings and covered the screen.

" What's going on?"

" We're being redirected to her the bidding page, you do know she works for the highest bidder right?"

" Yes."

" The bidding already started!"

" What's the highest bid?" Ambrose asking asked he paced about the room.

" Five million dollars."

" Five million?!" Killian exclaimed.

" She's the best assassin on the dark web, how much did you think she charges? Five thousand dollars?" Arthur retorted.

" The bid's about to close!"

" Ten million dollars." Ambrose stated, Arthur typed in the amount before the bid finally closed.

" Going once, going twice, sold to the incredibly annoying government agents!" Arthur announced.

***

" Ten million dollars? This should be interesting. Rex, trace that bidder and set up a call while you're at it."

" Yes Nyx."

***

" Uh oh!, Incoming call from Nyx."

" Answer it."

" Good morning. You put up quite a high amount, am I permitted to ask why."

" She's using a voice modifier." Arthur whispered.

" The job needs to be down precisely and quickly."

" You have my word. Once I end this call you will be directed to the account number you'll pay into. Drop the details of the job in the comment box below the account number. Have a nice day."

" Wait, how did she know it's morning here?" Killian asked suspiciously.

Arthur groaned, placing his head in his hands.

" What's wrong?" Ambrose questioned.

" This is why I don't go looking for Nyx,"

" There's a high possibility that Nyx already knows who I am."
