Benjamin "Benny" Taylor had the city on lock. At 23, he's one of the youngest to move up in the Heights Killer-Known for running weight, throwing wild-ass parties, and having more girls than he can remember. There weren't too many guys in the game that moved like him-cold when he needs to be, but always the life of the spot. Benny built his name on never showing weakness, never folding, and keeping his real thoughts buried six feet deep.
But when he's all alone, Benny's stuck facing things he doesn't talk about-not even to himself. He isn't just into women like he's been portraying. There's urges he doesn't know how to explain, feelings for dudes and even non-binary folks or anybody in-between that make him question everything he's ever been taught about being a man in the streets.
He ain't soft. Ain't sweet. But he damn sure ain't living right either.
When someone from his past-somebody bold enough to live out loud-shows up, Benny's world starts crackin'. Fast. Now he's caught in a war between who the streets want him to be... and who he really is underneath all that bravado.
And in the Heights, being real can cost you everything.

Sky never talks about that time. "You remember." I mumble. "Chase, I can't hear you from all the way over there.."

Fight For Me
(Completed) Bryan Phillips didn't have an easy life. Parents who got addicted to drugs meant doing what it took to survive. He thought blacking out when he lost his virginity was the icing on the cake... not even close. Two little words that hold so much meaning changed his world. "I'm pregnant." Becoming a parent at nineteen is no easy feat. It's even worse when your child's life is threatened. Handling a debt that his good for nothing parents owe is why he standing here at the underground boxing ring. Flexing his hand after punching the notorious Grayson Miller. Feared by most, but there is something in his eyes that Bryan can't shake. "I'm so dead Benny, what the fuck was I thinking? I can't do this!" "What other choice do you have?" I don't and that's the problem. If I don't get the money that they owe, my little girl... "Your puny ass will be dead within a week here." Grayson glares at him. "I don't have a choice, I rather it be me than my daughter." Why did I just say that? The cold dead look in the man's eyes would scare anyone away. I can't back down, no matter what. Neither one of them can look away. A familiarity, a longing one that Bryan thought he lost almost five years ago resurfaces and he doesn't understand why. "It's your funeral, meet me here tomorrow at ten, I will show you how to properly fight." The hold is broken as Grayson walks away. That was... strange, but forgotten the moment he was out of sight. Little did they both know that they shared a history that will soon come to light once training begins. How they will deal with that history is anyone's guess. Copyright © 2022 All rights reserved.

Joshua Pierce, CEO and heir of Pierce Constructions, is a successful business man. He turned what was a very profitable company into an empire that builds luxurious mansions and buildings throughout the USA and is about to expand his activity with a new division dedicated to small luxurious hotels. His favorite pastime? SEX. Sex with a capital S. Joshua is a gay Dominant and spends all his free time with his current Submissive between his playroom and the Black Diamond, a private club that indulges in BDSM and owned by one of his best friends. All this is a game for Joshua. He uses the Subs, enjoys their company for a few weeks or months and once he gets tired, he chooses another one. But at the age of nearly 28, he should start thinking about settling down. What would it take for him to do so? Is he ready to give up on his lifestyle? Certainly not...

The unexpected
Von kills like she breathes-calm, cold, constant. Tahani doesn't just watch people die-she decides when. Vonn'asia, or just Von, is twenty-three and deadly as fuck. A storm with a trigger finger. Raised in blood, forged in silence, she's carved her name into the city's bones. She doesn't flinch, doesn't forgive, and damn sure doesn't fear. People say her name when they pray no one's listening. When she hunts, she doesn't leave witnesses-she leaves warnings. Then one night, bleeding and laughing like death ain't never met her, she runs into Tahani Aguado-a quiet girl in blue scrubs with hands too steady, eyes too knowing. Tahani is twenty-two. Mysterious. Methodical. And vicious behind closed doors. Her body count's a whisper, her smile a trap, and her heart? Frostbitten beyond repair. She's been surviving off precision kills and secrets too heavy to speak. She doesn't help people. She ends them. But something about Von made her open that door. Made her act against every rule she's lived by. Now the city's about to bleed. Two women built from violence. Both with pasts that could burn empires down. One running from chaos. One becoming it. What started with a single bullet explodes into something brutal-lust, loyalty, betrayal, and bodies stacking too fast to count. In a world where mercy is weakness, and love is a liability, Von and Tahani don't fall for each other- They crash. Hard. And when killers collide? Some cities never recover.
