Everybody at Fairview High knew that Kyle Konstantinov, the school's biggest flirt, and Nath Santos-Rodriguez, the football team's wide receiver and biggest mystery, were close. It was almost odd, the stark comparison between the bouncy, friendly junior and the tall, brooding senior. On paper, it shouldn't have worked. But something in Kyle evened out something in Nath, and despite having nothing in common, their personalities mixed like peanut butter and jelly. No one quite knows exactly how or when they came to be, but soon they became a well known concept, as if they had somehow merged the idea of one another into their own presence. They didn't have a label for whatever they were, they just were. Until one day, they weren't. Nath and Kyle aren't high schoolers anymore. They're in their twenties, secure in their lives, put their past behind them. Neither of them have talked to eachother since that day, both convincing themselves that there's no other option - not with betrayal that big, secrets that hidden, lies that oppressive. But by either a devious twist of fate or a stroke of second-chance luck, the universe decides to bring them back together. The paradox only begs the question: can something so strong ever truly be snuffed out? Or is a spark only ever going to light into flame?

Warning - Very mature content Luca has always felt like someone was watching him. A shiver on his spine when he walked home at night. A shape in the corner of his eye that vanished when he turned. A pair of blue eyes that haunted his dreams long before he ever saw them in real life. He should have listened to his instincts. Because one night, Luca wakes from a nightmare to find a masked man lying in his bed- calm, patient, and claiming the space beside him like he owns it. He calls himself Jett, but that's all he gives. Not a face. Not a reason. Not a choice. Skull mask. Blue eyes. Leather gloves. A voice like gravel and sin. And an obsession that sinks its teeth in deep. Jett doesn't want money. He doesn't want silence. He wants Luca-every breath, every heartbeat, every terrified gasp. And he's willing to tear down the world to keep him. As Luca fights to reclaim his life, he begins to realize something far more horrifying: the man hunting him might be the only one who can save him from something worse. Because the shadows that follow Luca aren't just Jett. And monsters don't always wear masks... sometimes they make them. Dark. Twisted. Intimate. Unsettling. A horror-laced romance where fear becomes fascination... and the line between captor and protector shatters completely. Warning - Very mature content

"Explain to me why this not right baby, please." "Nyzir I'm not suppose to feel this way about you."

I sat behind him on his motorcycle. At that moment, all I wanted was to hold him in my arms and absorb every bit of his pain. He acted as if nothing had happened and drove in silence. I slowly started moving my hands towards his body, and suddenly, my control snapped and the pent-up feelings burst free. I gripped his back, my face burried into his shoulder as the sobs tore loose from my chest. He froze for a second, then gently tapped on my fingers wrapped around his waist, and went back to driving without saying a word. Author's note: Hey! This is the first part of a three-part series.
