What do you do when you're given a second chance at life? *** Age 15: Oliver Sallow is shipped to the tiny town of Blissby to live with a new foster family. Finn O'Connell is captain of the football team. Neither of them knows much about the other except for one thing: they have absolutely nothing in common. Age 17: Oliver finds Finn having a panic attack in the library bathroom. They still have nothing in common. They fall in love all the same. Age 18: Oliver breaks up with Finn. Age 18.5: Oliver dies in a motorcycle accident. Six minutes and twenty-four seconds later, he wakes up again to be offered a deal: he will get to spend another twelve months as a guardian angel, neither fully dead nor completely alive. The catch: the person he is assigned to help is none other than Finn O'Connell. Age 19: Two boys, fourteen months of history, and a promise: this time, there can be no falling back in love.

📖 Title: Crimson Debts Genre: Mafia BL / Dark Romance / Enemies-to-Lovers / Forced Proximity The Characters Kaelen "Kae" Thorne (The Enforcer/Heir): Cold, ruthless, and meticulously organized. He's the feared second-in-command and heir to one of the city's most powerful crime families. He values loyalty and payment above all else. He has a piercing gaze that rarely shows emotion but can cut through anyone. He's known for getting what he wants, one way or another. Julian "Jules" Vane (The Reluctant Pawn): Bright, artistic, and fiercely independent, but burdened by his family's struggles. He works hard, trying to keep his father's small, struggling art gallery afloat. He's sharp-tongued and doesn't back down easily, even when facing a terrifying figure like Kaelen. The Core Plot Julian's father, desperate to save his failing gallery, makes a fatal mistake: he borrows a substantial sum from the Thorne syndicate, believing he can pay it back quickly. When the deadline arrives, the gallery is still bleeding money, and his father is nowhere near repayment. Kaelen, known for his unyielding pursuit of debts, personally arrives to collect. Julian, trying to protect his ailing father from the syndicate's brutal methods, steps forward and offers himself. He makes a desperate deal: he will work off his father's debt, whatever it takes, for as long as it takes. Kaelen, intrigued by Julian's courage and perhaps a flicker of something in his defiant eyes, agrees. But his terms are harsh: Julian will become his personal assistant/manservant, bound to his side, privy to the syndicate's dark operations, and under Kaelen's absolute control until the debt is paid.

"Ensure they cannot touch what belongs to me again," he commanded, his voice firm and authoritative. His beta nodded, taking a step back and bowing his head. "Yes, Alpha King." The gravity of the situation hit me like a ton of bricks - they were talking about my friends. A wave of panic washed over me as I realized my little drama to piss him off had put them in danger. Now, I had to act fast to prevent disaster. I couldn't let my recklessness hurt the people I care about. I tugged on Alarico's coat sleeve, and he turned to face me. Our eyes locked, and for the first time, I felt genuine fear. My voice barely above a whisper, I said, "No." Alarico's gaze narrowed, and he raised an eyebrow, as if granting me permission to speak. I swallowed hard and tried to find my voice. "D-Don't hurt them." My words were laced with desperation, and Alarico's expression softened slightly. He tilted my face toward his beta and said, "Order them." I hesitated, unsure of what he meant. Was he testing me? But Alarico's gaze remained steady, his voice low and commanding. "Say it," he urged. With tears welling up in my eyes, I spoke, my voice shaking with rage and fear. "I, Mario Cassano, order you to revoke your alpha's previous order and not to lay a finger on my friends." The words felt like acid on my tongue, but I knew I had to protect my friends. As I finished speaking, Alarico's men dropped to their knees, their heads bowed in unison. I stumbled backward, startled by their sudden action. "Your wish is our command, Queen Luna," they chanted in perfect harmony. The title "𝗤𝘂𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗟𝘂𝗻𝗮" sent shivers down my spine. What did it mean? And why did Alarico's men respond to me with such reverence? I looked up at 𝗵𝗶𝗺, searching for answers, but his expression remained enigmatic.

|•COMPLETED ✔•| 🎲Book 1 of Dangerous Desires series 🎲 Detective Dominic Moser is an undercover detective that lives his life normally, well as normal as a busy detective can get it. He spends his days and nights chasing murderers, rapists, and the occasional drunkard or panty thief instead of hitting up bars or clubs and looking for a decent hook up like any other twenty five year old. But little does he know that his life is about to become even more complex after the usual day on the job. Add Adrian Van Benschoten to the mix. He's Detroit's most feared Italian "Mafia" Boss, also know as "Don". Adrian takes a sudden liking to Dominic's boldness and loves that he is seemingly unaffected by his position. This story will tell the tale of how things pan out between the workaholic,foul-mouthed detective and the ever so stubborn, short tempered (and sometimes stupid) Don. Will the two actually learn to get past their differences and become an odd couple, or will they just constantly be in a game of cat and mouse? If you weren't genius enough to figure it out, this is a story about male x male romance. Either get with the program or leave, Einstein. Timeline of work: 12/08/2015 - 10/02/2016
