Everything's an Illusion: A Dark MM Enemies to Lovers Romance

ASH I know it's not truly his fault, but his captivating blue eyes were the last thing I saw before my entire world was ripped out from under my feet. Now they're all I can see in my nightmares. We haven't crossed paths since that night and I'd like to keep it that way, if only for his sake. I don't care about his cartel family or the gangbangers he calls friends. I can't fight my demons, but I can do much worse to Mason Rojas if I ever see him again.

MASON I wasn't raised to care about much of anything. As the youngest child of New York's most infamous crime boss, I was generally able to get away with doing whatever I wanted and let the responsibilities, and repercussions of my actions, fall on the shoulders of my two older brothers. But I'll never forget the way Ash Brighton screamed my name that night. The agony, the desperation in his voice. The truth is, I've put my life on the line for that uptight rich boy who has always looked down on me and I still don't understand why. What I do know is no one can ever find out what I did.
