Soul of Darkness

A grim orphanage on the edge of London brings more reasons for sadness than for joy. I’m used to walking through life alone, despite the sideways glances and whispers behind my back. No one has ever managed to fathom the depths of my soul and find out how I plant fear in people’s hearts. And they won’t—because that’s my main secret… But everything changes when Alicia appears on the orphanage doorstep. They don’t want her here, yet the girl isn’t planning to give up. I don’t let anyone close to me, but it seems her resolve and her coldness toward me don’t scare her. Trying to break the wall of indifference, she risks colliding with the darkness I keep hidden inside me. But what if there’s much more in common between us than we thought? Will Alicia accept what I truly am, or will she just push it away?
