Victor McNemara is still dealing with his new reality. He has a son, his engagement has been revoked, and his career is in shambles, going from CEO to a co-owner of a small start-up company. On top of that, his best friend leaves his side due to some family emergency and basically ghosts him for half a year without a proper explanation. As much as he tries, setting his life right simply doesn't seem possible at the moment. Then he meets Dale. A guy who shows up in his office to deliver some documents and Victor is instantly smitten. He is aware of Dale's hunger and attraction toward him from the moment their eyes meet and decides to use it to his advantage. Having fun once in a while won't hurt anybody, right? Right. Unless you are a publicly known figure and your closest friend isn't keeping secrets from you.

Toby Wentworth's life is a clusterfuck. For a lot of reasons. And one of them just happens to be the fact that he is very gay, and also so far in the closet that he's practically in Narnia. But then there's this guy. This guy in his calculus class who winks at him. And suddenly, they're partners for a project. And Toby cannot stop thinking about him. Toby does his best to balance school, work, relationships, and the biggest secret he's ever kept as life goes on. He does, honestly. He tries so very hard. But things like drama, bizarre coincidences, and, of course, his crippling tendency to overthink have been making it difficult, and it's really not fair. But Toby just cannot stop thinking about that boy. And there are times when he wants to hate himself because of it. Sometimes, Toby's life sucks. He'll admit it. But as aggravating as the feeling of being just out of reach of a romance he desperately craves is, there's something... thrilling about it. Something that, no matter how many times he tries, cannot get him to stop this madness. He's in trouble. Absolutely. But maybe trouble can have its benefits. *** cover art by me!

"C'mon Lou," says Zayn after a moment, He sounds even more exasperated than before. Louis sort of has a knack for exasperating people, especially people like Zayn who aren't usually bothered by his brattiness. "Can't you give this guy a chance? Harry Styles? Aren't you curious about him at all?" Despite his best efforts, Louis still flinches at the name. He really shouldn't be so affected after all these years. He's seen the name printed down the curve of his waist in obnoxiously and uncommonly large loopy letters every single day since his sixteenth birthday eight years ago. He's very familiar with the name Harry Styles. It sounds pretentious and Louis hates it. He hates everything about his supposed soulmate. He hates his large handwriting that stands out like a claim on his skin whenever he's walking around shirtless. He hates his pretentious name. And now he hates his supposed curls and green eyes and dimples. - Or Louis has been skeptical of soulmates for years so it seems like fate when he finally bumps into the owner of the obnoxiously large signature printed onto his skin since age sixteen: Harry Styles, a human rights attorney who is firmly against soulmates.

Summary: "I do not care if she banishes me to my chambers for a month or the rest of the year, you two must see reason," Louis protests, feeling a minor fit coming on. "He is nothing but an insufferable, cocky, cloddish, pitiful excuse for an Alpha, and he deserves to live the rest of his days in solitary, not me." "My, my, what an array of abuse. I surely would loath to be this inadequate excuse of an Alpha you speak of, but alas I cannot relate to possessing such deficiency," a honey-glazed voice drips out from behind Louis, and the omega can feel the steam pouring over, ready to burst out of his already flushed ears. Or, the one where Omega Prince Louis is thrown a Courting Ceremony. A weekend full of competition ensues for his hand in marriage. As if he's not already stressed about choosing his future Mate in three days, it's just his luck that his enemy, Alpha Prince Harry has decided to partake as well. - Prompt #105: Omega Prince Louis is the sweetheart of the kingdom and pampered to bits. Naturally, when he reaches the marriageable age, an over the top ceremony is held with all his potential suitors being invited to participate in a bunch of tests, with the winner winning Louis' hand in marriage. Louis is horrified when his arch nemesis Alpha Prince Harry Styles also participates in the ceremony.

"Louis," Zayn suddenly sits up from the couch, no doubt recognizing the thread of menace that has laced Louis' tone. "What do you intend to do?" "It's simple," Louis replies, already feeling a tingle in his bones as a plan begins to formulate. "In the end, Harry will be the one to call off the engagement." "Harry is hellbent on marrying the omega heir," Zayn points out. "I have a hard time seeing how you will convince him to do such a thing." "I will make him fall in love with me," Louis announces slowly, ignoring Violet's tiny scratches against his thigh that feel an awful lot like a warning. "Piece by piece, I will come to take ownership over his heart. An invasion of love, if you will. And then I'll shatter it so violently that he will be unable to spend even a mere second in my presence." - Or, Louis and Harry are sworn enemies, especially at their university where they're constantly trying to one-up the other. They have been promised as each other's Mates since they were little pups and will become married as soon as they graduate. Louis cannot let that happen.

Harry has a condition that disallows him to feel physical pain. For a man thriving on fear and resistance from his victims - his prey - Harry is not prepared for the affections of a witty and ignorant Louis. "Are you afraid?" "You won't hurt me." "Yes I will." Harry loses himself to the darkness that swallows his brutality and rigid anger, but he needs Louis to be his anchor. His sanity. "There is no one else now. You can only love me, feel for me as I do for you. What I am is too lost, too disturbed to retrieve. Do you understand? You've done something to me and I don't want it to stop, so you can never leave me again. You are just mine now. Mine."

"Yes. Harry should help me through my h-heat," Louis shuddered, looking away from his mother because it was getting really weird by now. "Please leave, Mum." "Right," Jay exhaled in relief. "Ring the bell for Zayn to get you anything. Remember, no knotting or bonding. And...have fun?" "Out!" ... When Prince Louis falls into an early heat, his new personal guard Harry Styles is brought in as his new heat partner for the time being until Louis finds a suitable royal prince to bond and take the throne with. The only problem is that Harry is everything Louis wants but can't have. Freedom, tattoos, individuality...and quite possibly love. I found this in my drafts, i don't know what it is or where it came from tbh

"Dad, you can't go!" Louis yells to his father as he watches him pull out his sword. "Louis, you know that I have to. It's the pack leaders orders," Dan says calmly. "I need you to promise me that you'll take care of the family if I die." "So what? You'll just give up?" "Of course not. I am just willing to die for my family's safety." "So am I." The Zoely pack is attacked by rogue alphas and the pack leader orders all alphas over the age of eighteen to protect their pack. Dan Deakin is one of the strongest alphas in the pack, but there is one problem. He has a wife and six kids to feed and look after. Louis is the oldest child and the one who wants to protect their family. Or a Mulan AU where Louis is an omega who takes his father's place in the war.

Harry Styles is a frat boy football star from the wealthy Styles Family athletic dynasty. A celebrity among football fans, he knows how to play, he knows how to party, and he knows how to fuck (all of which is well known among his legion of admirers). Louis Tomlinson is a student and an athlete, but his similarities to Harry end there. Intelligent, focused, independent, and completely uninterested in Harry's charms, Louis is an anomaly in a world ruled by football. A bet about the pair, who might be more similar than they originally thought, brings them together. Shakespeare, ballet, Disney, football, library chats, running, accidental spooning, Daredevil and Domino's Pizza all blend into one big friendship Frappucino, but who will win in the end?
