Isolated and adrift, he struggles with panic attacks, loneliness, and memories that refuse to stay buried. His world shifts when he meets Atticus. Confident, kind, and impossible to ignore.

As their relationship deepens, so does Miles's hope that maybe someone could love him enough to help him heal, but the past has a way of catching up.

[COMPLETE!] A mostly-cozy friends-to-lovers BL about healing, high school, and second chances. Two years ago, Jace Walker had it all - popularity, talent, and the kind of ego only an American teenage soccer star could have. Then he was kidnapped. Gone for two years. Experimented on. Forgotten by everyone but the nightmares. Now he's back. Back at school. Back to pretending he's fine. But Marcus, the school's new golden boy, sees right through him - and Jace can't decide if he hates him for it... or needs him. As Jace struggles to rediscover who he is, he finds something unexpected: friendship, love, and maybe even himself again. Will he ever stop being the boy who disappeared? Or is he becoming someone new entirely?

Theo Graham has always felt like the "black sheep" of his pack. He's never managed to shift as effortlessly as his packmates, never been affected by the notorious "Haze" that all werewolves go through in their late teen years, and biggest of all, he's almost 21 and still has yet to find his fated mate. He's sick and tired of everyone telling him that there isn't any rush, and that it will "happen when it happens." Sure, some wolves find their mates in their early adult years, but *most* found theirs in their late teens, and for once in his life, Theo craves to be a part of the majority. He wants to finally feel like a proper werewolf--not some defective mistake. However, during the Alphas' anniversary ball, an accidental run-in with the sole heir of the Mockingbird pack sets Theo's life on a course he could have never anticipated. (this started as a shitpost that developed into an actual story. you're welcome) Content Warning: strong language, sexual themes and scenes (chapters marked with 🌶️), mild homophobia - COMPLETED!

"Excuse me, sir. I think you may have dropped these?" It was the voice I noticed first. Smooth, a little amused, and low enough to draw me out of myself. Then I saw him. Dirty blonde hair that looked like waves crashing down the sides of his face, and freckles like splattered paint across his fair skin. A silver hoop in his nose, another in his brow, both catching the light. And those eyes... electric blue, staring into my green ones with intensity. - After a heartbreaking loss, Killian has spent two years shielding himself from love, or any human contact really-convinced that no one could ever replace the person he lost. Finn, on the other hand, is caught in the throes of a toxic relationship, knowing he's not getting what he deserves but is too scared to walk away. When their paths cross, the spark is undeniable, but both are hesitant, scared of getting too close. Killian fears the pain of loving and losing again, while Finn's relationship has made him lose hope all together-almost. Will they let their pasts define them, or can they find the courage to bloom together in the wake of their ruins?

(mxm) Survival tip #1: Don't strangle your snowed-in roommate. Easier said than done for Miles Thompson, a college senior who just wants to cruise through his final semester with as few complications as possible. But when a freak blizzard traps him in Logan Arver's apartment, simple is officially off the table. Logan is smug, infuriatingly calm, and way too good at getting under Miles's skin. Miles is short-tempered, sleep-deprived, and certainly not interested in making new friends. But with the snow piling up, the power on the verge of cutting out, and nowhere else to go, they're forced to navigate more than just the storm together---long after it ends.
