La Perla

A marauder army camps outside the walls of Torrel, drunk on the promise of sacking the city by dawn. The Alcalde, desperate, hires the two most expensive assassins on the continent. He doesn't tell either one about the other. He pays whoever comes back first. Almartín kills because he loves it. He's twenty-two, self-made, born in Torrel's gutters, and he's never met anyone who moves through the dark the way he does. He's looking to solo the contract and earn the coin. Nobody knows La Perla's real name. She's twenty-one, alone since she can remember, and the pearl belly ring she wears is the only honest thing about her. She needs every coin of this contract. Her mother's freedom depends on it. One camp. One night. Two killers who hate each other, want each other, and can't afford to share.
