'How did I fall this far this fast?' He thought as he swirled the whiskey in his glass. He tilted his head back and downed the rest of his liquor. He picked the bottle up off of his desk to refill the glass for the nth time. Just a single drop rolled out and fell into the empty vessel. 'Well isn't that just fantastic.' In a moment of hazy frustration, he hurled the bottle across the office. It wasn't like there was anyone to care about a mess of broken glass anyway. There was no one around to even hear it shatter. Even he didn't get to hear it shatter. When that realization hit him, he jerked his head towards the door where he had thrown the bottle. In the shadows there stood a petite young woman, the bottle in her hands. She appeared to be carefully studying the label and completely disinterested in him. "Wh-who are you?" Perhaps he had turned around too quickly. The room was starting to sway. He barely managed to sputter out those three words much less put them in the right order. "How original," the woman rolled her eyes before fixing them on his. "Shouldn't you be asking yourself that very question?" ~~~~~ This is NOT a transmigration or reincarnation story! ~~~~~ If those you trusted most had betrayed you and you had lost everything and someone offered you a second chance, would you be willing to take it? Would you still be able to trust others? Chance L. Addison has seemingly hit rock bottom when he is offered an unlikely opportunity to start over. Not only can he get back to where he was before, he can have his status elevated further to become one of the most wealthy and successful tycoons in the world. But first he is at a small publishing company? What secrets could he be keeping? And what secrets are his saviors keeping from him? ~~~~~ Hello Readers, This is the first web novel I've ever written!

Having being framed for insurgency, Abaddon Gadreel was cast out of Hell and stripped of his rank with his only redemption being to bring the souls of all the freeborn mages to hell with a time frame of six months. 5 months passed and Abaddon succeeded in his assignment until he came in contact with Abigail, an angel in disguise and a frail, harmless, charming looking damsel who was the last of her kind and the very last soul he needed to complete his mission. In the process of getting close to her to get her trust and willing relinquish her soul to him, he ends up falling in love with her as her goodness affected him, leaving him in a dilemma. Would he succumb to his love and desire for her, giving up his whole world and ambition or would he choose his rank and mission over her, claiming her soul for the Demon Lord. ******** Relaxing his muscles and flaring his wings as his horns stood proud and tall, Abaddon twisted his neck from side to side. “You have got to be kidding me!” Abigail exclaimed as she gazed with wide-eyes at the creature standing in front of her. Gasp! Turning swiftly, with eyes that look like hers, disbelieving and scared, he opened his mouth quickly to say something. “Shit!” She blinked, realization dawning on her. “Abigail, wait. It is not what you think.” “You liar, you lied!” Not giving him room to explain, she turned and fled. ************* MATURE CONTENT!
