Ravaged Devotion : A Dark MM Sci-Fi Romance (Vicious Vices Book 2)

Be vicious with your vices.

Rue Vadim made a terrible mistake.

He slept with the wrong Hart. And for the last three years, he's been paying the price. But he's home now, back on Usurn, enrolled at Sacrum Cor University. Back at Hart Estate, in a bedroom that used to mean something different, before his mother decided to marry Rhys Hart, the father of the man that Rue has loved for as long as he can remember. The man Rue has been avoiding like the plague for more than one reason, including how his stomach flips and his heart skips a beat whenever he hears the words stepbrother whispered in his direction.

Ryker Hart knows anger.

He's as familiar with fury as he is with oxygen, and nothing infuriates him more than the one that got away. Rue abandoned him in his time of need, and that's something Ryker will never forget. Forgiveness isn't even on the table. Black Harts don't forgive. They get revenge. Not even their parent’s random union and the fact that they’re forced onto the same family tree will stop Ryker from doing as he pleases. When they’re both dragged to a company retreat, he anticipates a long weekend wherein he gets to make Rue suffer. Only, someone else is way ahead of him, and they don’t plan on stopping with ruining just Rue’s good time.

Overnight, they find themselves trapped, unable to exit the luxury lodge without risking entering the fog that has surrounded them.

And encountering the monsters that lurk within it.

Suddenly, making Rue pay is no longer on the agenda, because no matter how angry Ryker may be, no one else gets to mess with what’s his.

Rue left him once. He’ll never get the chance to do it a second time.

Not even through death.
