The Rose Sorry

Having him is taboo for me, loving him makes me hurt even more. I will never be his, because of a fact that happened to me.

Julian Hayes has spent his life carrying the weight of a family that never wanted him. When his father’s reckless debt delivers him into the hands of Adrian DeCarlo — the city’s most feared mafia king — Julian vows to escape, even if it means betraying the devil himself. Risking everything, Julian flees to reunite with the woman he loves. But freedom is short-lived. Adrian tracks him down, threatening her life if Julian doesn’t return. Forced back into captivity, Julian’s world shatters when his girlfriend is found dead the next day. Grief turns to rage. Convinced Adrian’s cruelty has stolen everything, Julian swears vengeance. When a rival mafia offers him the chance to strike back, he seizes it without hesitation. Yet every moment in Adrian’s world feeds his hatred as much as it ignites something far more dangerous. Because hatred was supposed to keep him alive, not make him crave the very man he vowed to destroy.

When Olivia moves into her father’s house, she expects discomfort and distance—not the quiet pull she feels toward his son. Adrian is older, already in college, and careful in ways that make him seem unreachable. At first, he treats her like a responsibility, someone he needs to look out for. But closeness has a way of changing things. It begins with small moments. Lingering conversations late into the night. Shared laughter that feels too intimate. The way Adrian always seems to notice when Olivia is overwhelmed, the way his voice softens when he speaks to her. What starts as protection slowly becomes attention—and attention turns into something dangerously close to desire. Olivia feels it first. A flutter in her chest when he enters the room. The way her breath catches when their eyes meet for a second too long. Adrian feels it too, even as he fights it—pulling away one moment, drawn back the next. They never say the words. They don’t have to. Every look holds meaning. Every accidental brush of hands lingers longer than it should. The air between them grows thick with everything they refuse to admit. They know the line they’re standing on. They know crossing it would change everything. Yet the heart doesn’t care about rules. What grows between them is soft but consuming—tender, aching, and forbidden. A love born in restraint, made stronger by everything they deny themselves. When their secret is discovered, it shatters them both. Adrian is sent away without goodbye. Olivia is left behind, clutching memories that feel too precious and too painful to keep. Years later, Olivia has built the life she once dreamed of. But some feelings don’t burn fast and disappear. They smolder. They wait. And they never truly let go.

[RATED 19+ CONTENT AHEAD] "This is the last time, Thea." He thrust himself entirely into me, and I whimpered. "Yes, Daddy." That was the lie we told ourselves. *** He was my father's best friend. The man I called "Uncle Stellan." Now, my father is gone, and Stellan Vaughn is my new guardian. My new boss. He’s cold, ruthless, and the most powerful man in New York. He’s supposed to protect me, to guide me. But at my father's funeral, when his dark eyes met mine, what I saw wasn't comfort. It was a hunger that lit a matching fire in me.

He doesn't know I'm just as broken as he is. He doesn't know I want his control to shatter. He's the one man I can never have. The one man who could destroy my future. And the only one I'm willing to sin for.
