Blood and Desire by hardiahhh

Lennon Hayes was born in a world that chews people up and spits them out. She's seen what happens when people rely on love, on promises-they get left behind. That's why she keeps her head down, keeps her heart locked up, and keeps running from the ghosts of her past. Then she meets Knox Mercer. He's everything she should avoid. Cold. Untouchable. Wrapped in ink and arrogance, with money that whispers of violence and power. His name carries weight in the underground-the kind people don't say too loudly. Illegal fights, high-stakes bets, blood-stained cash. He should be a villain in her story. But villains have a way of making you feel safe when the world never has. Knox doesn't lose-not in the ring, not in life. He climbed his way out of nothing with his fists and a ruthless reputation. Now, he owns more than just the fights-he owns the city, the debts people owe, the fear in their eyes. Lennon doesn't belong in his world, and he doesn't belong in hers. But she's the first person in years to look at him like he's not a monster, and he's the first person to make her want to stop running. But Knox's empire wasn't built on kindness. The same money that keeps her safe could just as easily destroy them both. And in his world, nothing stays untouched forever. "You think money makes you untouchable?" "No, sweetheart. I make me untouchable."

The Cunning by CLHarper

Everything changed the night they took her. Ripped from her mundane life, Madison is thrust into the violent world of trafficking, where her only choices are to adapt-or die. Jase, her captor, is as cruel and unrelenting as the men who pay him. Cold, calculating, and fiercely loyal to the underworld he serves, Jase thrives on being in control. But Madison was never going to be anyone's average victim. Relentlessly cunning, she ignites something lethal within Jase. As the lines between predator and prey blur, Madison is drawn deeper into Jase's dark orbit, while he finds himself captivated in ways he can't afford to admit. In a world where trust is a death sentence and love is nothing but a punchline, there are no heroes - only the willing and the unwilling. Madison must decide just how willing she is before her time runs out. Gritty, raw and unapologetically dark, The Cunning explores the razor thin edge between survival and destruction - and the forbidden passion that lives there. * New chapter every Saturday and Wednesday
