Ace is a ruthless killer, he shoot first and ask questions later. His childhood was nothing but rough, protecting and providing for his twin brother was all he did. When he runs into Hendrix she turns his world upside down and bring out something in him he didn't even know was there. No matter how much he pushes her away, she's like the goddamn plague.

Cee Ayers doesn't let people in-he's got walls built from years of learning that trust is dangerous. Zeph Carter doesn't need an invitation-he sees through the silence, through the sarcasm, and meets Cee exactly where he is. What starts as an easy friendship shifts into something heavier, something neither of them expected. But love-real love-means letting yourself be seen, even when it's terrifying. Sample Scene: Cee was sprawled on Zeph's bed, noise-canceling headphones on, iPad in hand, locked into his game. He barely noticed when the mattress dipped, barely reacted when Zeph's warmth pressed against him. Then Zeph slid on top of him. Cee exhaled through his nose, adjusting his grip on the iPad, ignoring the weight pressing him into the mattress. A slow, deliberate kiss landed on his neck. Then another. Cee tapped his screen. "Move." Zeph didn't. Instead, he bit down gently, then soothed the spot with his tongue. Cee tensed. "Zeph." Zeph hummed against his skin, pressing more kisses, dragging his lips up the side of Cee's throat. His hands settled on Cee's ribs, thumbs rubbing slow circles. Cee's fingers twitched around the iPad. He tried to focus. He really did. Then Zeph bit again, harder this time. Cee sighed, dropping the iPad onto his chest and yanking off the headphones. "You deadass?" Zeph grinned against his skin. "Been deadass." Cee huffed, tilting his head to the side in surrender. "You so fuckin' annoying." Zeph just chuckled, lips finding Cee's jaw. "Yeah, but you love me though."

"It's blood bout' that pussy."

"Ain't no gettin' out," When he meets Von's gaze the man smiles at him lazily, all sharp teeth and dark promises. "We in this shit for life."

Dontavius has been in love with Diamond since they were kids. When they were 23 and 22 respectively and finally began exploring a relationship together, Dontavius thought he finally had everything he'd ever wanted. But when Diamond ended up cheating and coming out of it with a baby, Dontavius realized that the love of his life didn't love him as much as he does. Diamond claims to love Dontavius, but even three years after making his son, he still can't bring himself to stay faithful to his boyfriend, even when the looming threat of Dontavius leaving him becomes apparent. Neither of them expects a bright eyed, Spanish speaking young man named Raymonte to approach Dontavius and suddenly start fighting for his heart and showing him the love he should've been getting the whole time while Dontavius continues to fight for his shattered relationship. Dontavius has the choice of staying with Diamond and letting him continue to hurt him, or giving Raymonte a chance to show him a better life.
