Khysen Bennett grew up in the streets with a father who turned him into a soldier, not a son. Violence was all he knew, and loyalty to his dad, Kion Bennett, was the only way to survive. He never questioned orders, until his father told him to follow Saija Fletcher and take her out. She was supposed to be just another target, watching her, move, and pull the trigger, but the more Khysen watches her, the more he feels something he hadn't felt in forever, and that makes the job impossible. Now he's stuck between the only life he's ever known and the girl who makes him want better. With his anger always one call away from blowing up and his father watching his every move, Khysen has to figure out what's worth more - his loyalty or his heart, but in his world, turning your back on family can get you killed.

"you're married. I can't be a mistress, I don't wanna settle for somebody's else's property. You have to let me go." konamie sniffled, wiping the tears that spilled from her eyes. Kentrell grabbed her wrist, pulling her closer to him. "you not a mistress, nami. Please just give me a chance to fix all this. I don't wanna let you go. I love you." but he also loved her and he can't have both so what he pose to do. HIS MISSES, HIS MISTRESS.

Fresh out of jail and carrying the weight of her past, Mariana "Marni" is known for her tough exterior, tomboyish presence, and the assumptions people make about who she is and who she's supposed to love. Her only safe place is with Gianna, her best friend-who also happens to be the sister of Kyzion "Kyzi." Kyzi has never liked Marni. Or at least, that's what everyone believes. So when Gianna asks if Marni can stay at Kyzi's place for a few months while she gets back on her feet, the answer comes as a surprise: yes. Living together reopens something neither of them is prepared to face. Kyzi's distance isn't random, and Marni's hardened attitude isn't just sexuality decision. As days turn into nights, the truth begins to surface. Conversations stretch longer. Guards slip. The resentment melts into something complicated. What they're building is quiet, hidden, and never meant for anyone else to see. Because Marni and Kyzi share a past no one knows about. When that secret finally comes to light-why Kyzi has always pushed her away, and why Marni became the person everyone thinks they know-it threatens to unravel everything they've rebuilt.
