KIAN HARPER
I never thought there'd be a day where my Devil left me. Completely.
The heartbreak feels like someone twisted and yanked my heart out of my chest, but I suppose my heart was never there to begin with, was it? Couldn't be. Not when Zephyr Delaney held it captive.
Zephyr cut me out because I'd been breaking him to pieces while he'd done all he could to save me.
I wasn't surviving or living anymore. I was a shell.
It has been a month with no contact when I happen upon him in town, and the look of nothingness when he sees me, breaks me further.
It was like I was a stranger.
I want my Devil back, but how do I stop the all-consuming fear? How do I give him everything he deserves? My perception of intimacy is so twisted, and I fear I can't give him something so important because of what happened to me.
I'm losing my mind, I can't keep going on like this. I have to communicate with him, but it will prove to be the hardest challenge of my life.
But what am I to do when my Devil seeks me out one late-night not long after seeing him act as if I was a stranger in town? What am I to do when he tells me he can't only be my friend? And what am I to do when he gives me one final chance to be honest-to tell him how scared I am?
I... take it.
Because a life without my Devil hasn't really been living at all, and the horrors of our past will complicate our build phase. I don't know if I can be good enough for him.
But I know I need to try now.
It's my last chance, and I don't want to waste it.

Book three out of six in the Chaotic Hearts series. THESE STORIES MUST BE READ IN ORDER. RAIDEN ASHER: I get it. I'm a big, tough guy who rides a motorcycle and can get anyone I want with the snap of my fingers. Not true, by the way. Who even believes that stereotype? If that were true, I'd have the one I wanted and have wanted for almost a year. Not only that, I thought he wanted to kiss me, and I most certainly wanted to kiss him. So, I kissed him. Then he ran away and locked himself inside his room, and I had no idea how to fix the mistake I made in his honor. It wasn't a mistake for me. I only wanted to wipe his mind off the kiss so I could still keep him around and comfortable. I don't care how much it breaks me. I'd break apart for him. It's Halloween month, and I'm determined to back away and give him space. So, why does it seem like he doesn't want space? How long is he going to do this to me before he does break me? I know he has demons that crawl through his head and paralyze him, so how do I take away his fears? I'd fight many battles if it meant I'd win the war in his head. I want to show him that I mean what I say, and I'm giving myself until the stroke of midnight, November first, before I lay my weapons down and give up on any romance I could have with him. However, one of my Halloween dares that I must complete before midnight is to get a kiss from someone at the party we attend. So, why is Killian Wolfe standing in front of me?Complete

Don't Hurt Me: Book One (bxb) ✔️
Book one of six in the Chaotic Hearts series. BOOKS MUST BE READ IN ORDER. - RIVER MINTZ: Listen, I need you to hear me out. I'm a little bit impulsive, and I don't think anything through enough before I'm implementing my next plan of action. And it's because of my impulsiveness that I even ended up in this heartbreaking situation. See, I was falsely engaged to a man-a straight man named Louis-who did some awful things in his lifetime. You don't even want to know. But my parents had sent me to college and told me to discover life outside my wealth. I needed money. But when I found out what Louis had done, I immediately left. I didn't want anything to do with him. He was a vile human being. I should have known better. However, I didn't want my parents to know that I was someone's pet, so while they knew nothing about Louis, I also never told them we broke things off out of fear of my Mother's hound nose discovering what I'd done to make money during college. It's been five months since I ended things with him, and my Mom begged me to come home for Christmas this year and to bring my fiancé. And I couldn't very well say we were no longer together out of thin air, right? I had to figure something out, or my Mom would know I was lying. So, why did my ex-boyfriend, Seven Knight, appear in Chicago when he lived in Vermont, last I heard? Why did he agree so easily? Why was he so willing to go along with this? Mom found out my "fiancé" is Seven, and now she is begging us to get married on Christmas! What do I do?! We haven't seen or spoken in years because we... had to discover life outside of one another. But what I never told him? I never wanted that. And now, I have to pretend we're happily together, and it's confusing my brain. I still love him. I crave him. I need him. But I have doubt that he feels the same. It's been too long. I don't have much to offer. How could he still want me? Ha. What a fun Christmas holiday this will be, right?Complete
