This is a dark mm romance. If you are not familiar with the dark romance genre, I urge you to proceed with caution. This book contains explicit on page scenes of violence, torture, domestic and parental abuse, child neglect as well as explicit scenes where consent is not clearly given. Additionally, there is a scene where two characters intentionally trigger a PTSD response in an effort to help one of them overcome trauma.

I loved fucking dudes. There was just something about bending over a pretty alpha male and making him see Jesus through his asshole. Nothing got me off faster than a good ol’ fight for dominance that ended with me literally on top.

The ginger-haired sex god in question walked into the room abruptly, and my jaw literally dropped. That picture online had not done him justice. Forget muscles. I was suddenly craving a ginger snap.

I have to say, this was the first time someone had ever gotten hard for me while I tried to kill them, but I wasn’t complaining. Something about that was so hot. What else would make this little psycho hard?

Ryan followed me into the kitchen, looking sullen and pissed off. It seemed I had a brat on my hands, which was literally my favorite. I loved it when they fought back. I got to punish them and teach them their place.

What is the significance of 2739, you ask? Well, it’s the same code that I use to confirm the completion of my jobs for Damian. It could be a coincidence that my code was written on these slips… However, I didn’t believe in fucking coincidence. Not in my line of work.

“That’s it, straight boy. Come for me.” “No. Fuck you!” I spat, and he chuckled. “You’re going to come, Ryan; there’s no point in fighting it. You’re going to shoot your load all over that bitch’s corpse, then you’re going to clean it up like the good boy I know you are.”

He dropped the money into my hand, and my cheeks flushed as I realized he was paying me for… what exactly? Giving me a handjob? Humiliation and rage bubbled in my chest, burning away any good feelings that had been growing.

The fact that fear seemed to turn him on excited the shit out of me. There were tons of things I would love to do to him to show him just how fun a fear kink could be.

“Yeah, baby. That feels good, doesn’t it? Show me how good you look when you come.” I growled, even though he couldn’t hear me. I hadn’t been able to see his entire face earlier, just the side of his head when I held him down. “Cal…”

Not just any apron. It was a frilly pink apron that said, ‘I put the bitch in obituary.’ My aunt had gotten it for Iris as a gag gift one year, and it had never been worn.

I wanted to kiss him so bad. I wanted to beg him not to go. I wanted to tell him he didn’t have to hurt people. It didn’t have to be like that… but… what did I know? I didn’t have the means to protect him from someone like Damian Ryker. I was just a fucking mortician.
