DAMIEN.

I walked out of her room like the walls were on fire. I didn’t look back. If I did, I knew I’d turn around. And if I turned around, I wouldn’t trust myself to stop.

My footsteps were angry, echoing too loudly in the hallway as I headed straight for the garage. The moment I reached the car, I yanked the door open and slammed it shut with a force that rattled the frame.

The silence inside the car was suffocating. Then my phone vibrated.

I didn’t want to look. I already knew—my gut had bee

  • HIS TO RUIN   Little Play Thing

    IRIS.Consciousness didn’t return with a bang. It dragged itself back into my mind like a wounded animal, heavy and sluggish.My eyelids felt like they’d been fused shut with lead. When I finally forced them to crack, a violent, sterile white light scorched my retinas. I flinched, the motion sending a dull, throbbing ache through my skull — the kind of pain that felt like a hangover from a chemical hell.Panic flickered in my gut. My first thought was a cell.I expected the bite of cold concrete against my cheek, the smell of damp rot and bleach, and the distant, hollow sound of steel doors slamming shut. I expected a cage where women with dead eyes counted the days until their souls finally gave up. Prison wasn't just a place; it was a grinder, and I’d just handed myself over to the machine.But as the spots in my vision cleared, the world sharpened into a reality that was far more terrifying.This wasn't a precinct. It wasn't a jail.The ceiling was a soaring expanse of crown moldin

  • HIS TO RUIN   Unconscious

    IRIS.For a long, agonizing second, my lungs simply forgot how to work.He stood in my doorway like he owned the frame, the storm howling behind him as if he had dragged it here on a leash. Lightning fractured the sky, throwing his sharp, ruthless features into bone-white relief.“Did you miss me, my love?”My brain scrambled to process the nightmare standing on my welcome mat. My love?Pure, unfiltered survival instinct kicked in before I could even form a thought.“Get the fuck away from me!” I screamed, throwing my entire body weight against the heavy oak door. I pushed with everything I had, desperate to slam the deadbolt in his smug face.But I was fighting a force of nature.Aiden didn’t even brace himself. His hand simply shot out, his palm hitting the flat of the wood. And he shoved.The physical disparity between us was catastrophic. The door violently buckled inward, the heavy wood slamming into my shoulder. I flew backward, my feet tangling beneath me, and hit the floor til

  • HIS TO RUIN   Did You Miss Me?

    IRIS.The front door clicked shut with a hollow, final thud that rattled my teeth.I stood in the foyer, my fingers white-knuckling the cold brass knob, listening to the silence settle around me. The house smelled of industrial carpet cleaner and sterile, wet paint. It didn't smell like home. It smelled like a massive, terrifying mistake.I walked further inside, my heels clicking sharply against the bare tile, and dropped my bag onto the solitary armchair in the living room. The afternoon sun bled through the half-drawn blinds, casting long, bruised shadows across the floorboards.I sank into the chair.A laugh bubbled up my throat—a harsh, jagged sound that tasted like battery acid. I slapped a hand over my mouth to force it back down, but the laugh cracked down the middle and splintered into a sob.“What the fuck have you done?” I whispered to the empty room.The tears came hard and fast, blurring the pale walls. I pulled my knees to my chest, burying my face in my hands as my shou

  • HIS TO RUIN   Finding The Devil

    IRIS.The silence in the penthouse wasn’t peaceful; it was a vacuum, sucking the oxygen straight out of my lungs.I sat dead-center on the edge of the mattress, my legs crossed, tracing the frayed seam of my jeans with a trembling finger. The heavy blackout curtains were drawn halfway, bleeding a bruised, violet evening light across the pristine carpet. My phone sat face-down beside me, the screen completely dark. The bags were already packed and shoved discreetly by the door.Today was the day I burned my safe haven to the ground.I pulled a slow, jagged breath through my teeth and let it sit in my chest before exhaling. I had rehearsed this script a hundred times in my head. I knew the blocking, I knew the cues, but my heart was actively violently rebelling, hammering against my ribs like it was trying to break out.I had played my part perfectly these last few days. Despicable, really, how easily the lies had slipped past my teeth.When Derrick had cautiously asked about the invest

    WENDY.The bass from the club was still rattling my teeth when I stepped out into the biting neon glow of the Strip.I blew a kiss to the bouncers and shifted from foot to foot on the pavement, the cool night air doing absolutely nothing to kill the fire pooling between my thighs. The club had been electric tonight. Strobe lights licking over sweat-slicked abs, hands hovering just inches from my skin, eyes devouring me while I danced. I lived for that hunger.But I wasn't allowed to feed it. Not with them.That was the golden rule of being Aiden’s personal property. I could tease the crowds. I could strip down to lace and glitter under the lights. But I belonged to him. And honestly? I didn't give a damn. Aiden paid me enough to buy the club if I wanted to, and money aside... no man had ever handled me the way he did.My phone buzzed in my tiny sequined purse.Jasper.I answered. The call didn't even last three seconds."Come to the house."Click.That was all it took. A single senten

    AIDEN.The ocean chewed at the jagged rocks below, a violent, foaming maw of black water.I stood at the absolute edge of the precipice, my hands buried deep in the pockets of my overcoat. The wind howled, whipping the heavy fabric against my legs like it was actively trying to drag me over the edge to join her.I stared down into the suffocating abyss."She’s probably dead," I said aloud.The wind instantly swallowed the words, offering no argument. It should have felt like a closed case. A loose end neatly severed by gravity. But the words didn't settle right. They sat in my gut like a block of cold iron, heavy and distinctly uncomfortable.If she had survived that drop, she was either defying the laws of physics or divinely protected. And I had never believed in divine intervention—unless I was the one pulling the trigger.I exhaled a slow, clouded breath into the freezing air and turned my back on the cliff.Thirty yards away, Orion was on his knees in the dirt.My men stood aroun
