She was supposed to be my stepsister, but I'd rather go to hell for loving her than spend a day being her brother. He was supposed to be my stepbrother, but brothers don't make you watch them bleed just to see if you're still brave enough to let him ruin you. And God help me, I always am. Rosabelle was promised a fresh start. When her mother emerged from a high-end rehab with a new husband and a "sober" outlook, Rosabelle expected a family. Instead, she got a gilded cage. Their sprawling mansion stinks of expensive gin and the looming threat of the next relapse. In this house, "recovery" is a lie, and her mother and stepfather have traded their sobriety for a shared language of toxic destruction. Then there is Declan. Cold, lethal, and heir to a fortune he despises, Declan is a master of a world his father doesn't know exists. By day, he's the brooding stepbrother who ignores her. By night, he is the "Prince of the Pits," an underground fighter who thrives on the darkness of the underground. When the chaos of her home finally reaches a breaking point, it isn't the police who save her-it's Declan. He levels his father with terrifying precision before dragging Rosabelle into the dark. He doesn't take her to safety; he takes her to the Pits. He claims her place at the edge of the ring, his "lucky charm" in a room full of wolves. Back at the mansion, the sibling labels are burned away. Declan doesn't want to protect her innocence; he wants to be the one to ruin it. In a house of addicts, Rosabelle has developed the most dangerous habit of all: a craving for the man who risks his life for her." NOTE: Declan and Rosabelle are not biologically related. No blood relation exists between the characters. **the male lead in this story acts as a sanctuary. Expect more "Who did this to you?" and less "I'm the one hurting you."** Rated Mature for: Dark themes, underground violence, and strong language.

I shake my head, eyes fixed anywhere but the gorgeous man next to me. His hand grips my chin tightly, just enough to make me avert my eyes to his. "You know you want this as much as I fucking do. I want you to be mine. I want to be the one to hold you and kiss you the one you go to whenever you're happy or fucking sad. But let it be me, let me fucking show you that it should be me." He glares, jaw tensing. ...... ©hessaherophinelove

Three months of unpaid rent. A routine eviction. That was supposed to be the extent of Officer Asher Gray's Tuesday morning. But when he forced his way into the dilapidated apartment, he didn't find a deadbeat tenant. He found a nightmare. Hidden behind a door was Aria-broken, bound, and trembling under the psychological ghost of a man who called himself "Matthew." For three years, she lived in a hell of Logan's making, a world where her body was currency and her voice was a liability. Now that Logan has vanished into the shadows, Aria is physically free, but her mind remains a prisoner. She is a ghost in a hospital gown, refusing to utter a single word to the doctors, the counselors, or the world that failed her. The only person she doesn't shrink away from is Asher. He's the one who cut the ropes; he's the one who stood between her and the darkness. When the Chief realizes that Asher is the only anchor keeping Aria from drifting away entirely, he makes an unorthodox-and dangerous-request: Asher needs to take her in. Asher Gray is a man of protocols and boundaries, and bringing a traumatized witness into his home breaks every one of them. He's annoyed, overwhelmed, and certain he's the wrong man for the job. But as the days turn into weeks, the silence in his house begins to change. Through the flicker of her hands and the tentative trust in her eyes, Aria starts to emerge from the wreckage. Asher intended to just keep her safe until the trial, but he soon realizes that the closer she gets to healing, the harder it becomes to imagine his life without her quiet presence. In the process of saving Aria, Asher might just find that he was the one who was truly lost.
