Love from the ashes
When Damien's team is decimated in what has now become a very suspicious mission, he has enough. He has risked his life for the country, done enough by being its most feared blade, but that is not the only way to serve it, and that has never been his dream, so he has decided to come back for everything he has left behind, to face the ashes he had buried deep inside for the past years, to face the love that has shone a light in his life, and to get revenge of the one who has trampled on it, and tried to destroy it.
Now, he is Damien no more, he is Daemon, like those who have left, allies and enemy alike, used to call him, almost. Now, he is an orphan no more, he is...

A ghost operative of special warfare, one of the best in existence, coming back after the last mission turned out to be a deathtrap. A quiet life might be his wish, but the dark world is not so easy to leave, blood is not so easy to wash off, and human's heart is never fathomable. But he can fight again, for the one he had been longing for, for those ashes he wants to set ablaze once again... for the future he wants.

“I don't like judging people, but sometimes I can't help it. I don't like talking behind people's backs, but sometimes I do. I just want to live a good life, but sometimes I can't.”
It is not easy to leave the darkness, just as it is painful to cradle the burning ashes of the love of yesteryear.
He disappeared without a trace, coming back from the ever-present war years later, from the darkest depths where death was the unchangeable constant.
As for her, she had suffered, she lost had everything, and she had raised her son alone.
Two worlds set to meet again, like years ago, on a ground covered with the fiery ashes of the love they have left behind. Can a spark set the ashes afire again?
Love, Betrayal, Blood, but not Hatred, only cold revenge, and a son to complete the family he never had, the family she did not have anymore.
