Summary
It's said that every soul is connected to another by a red thread, and that these two souls are destined to meet. The thread, though it may tangle or stretch, will never break. That's not your experience, lucky or unlucky enough as you are to see the strings that bind people together. A red thread is developed and grown, not born, and you've worked hard to weed out any semblance of crimson that might cling to you. You pay your bills, you keep your head down, and you find whatever lost people or items you're hired to sniff out.
Then the Devil of Hell's Kitchen tags along on a job, and your plan falls apart.
Starts prior to Into the Ring, and loosely follows the canon timeline. There is eventually smut, so enter at your peril. Reader is never physically described but uses a false name and may be treated as an OC.

Summary
You seldom came across a person whose emotions were so complex in their strength that they overwhelmed your abilities. But the man that sat in front of you put them all to shame. The breathtaking grief that welled up inside Matt Murdock swirled in a vicious whirlpool full of rage, pain, fear, and above all, burning shame. The currents were so strong that you did not know how he wasn’t drowning in them. And at the center twisted a bottomless core of self-loathing wrapped in the razor wire of abandonment that felt all too familiar. And while you recognized that no human being should ever be left to suffer so completely – the way you had been all those years ago – the resistance you were met with time after time when you tried to extend him a lifeline left you terrified that you would fail him. But damned if you weren’t going to try.

Summary
It's said that every soul is connected to another by a red thread, and that these two souls are destined to meet. The thread, though it may tangle or stretch, will never break. That's not your experience, lucky or unlucky enough as you are to see the strings that bind people together. A red thread is developed and grown, not born, and despite your best attempts, your thread with the Devil finds fertile ground in the blood-soaked soil of Hell's Kitchen.
What that will mean is up to you and him to figure out, hopefully before the predators that walk the shadows take interest.
Time to sink or swim, little Hound.
