By day, Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles are co-stars, sharing long hours on the set of Supernatural. By night, they slip into the comfort of anonymous letters exchanged under secret names on an online pen-pal forum. Neither of them realizes that the person they've been pouring their hearts out to, the one who makes them laugh, challenges their thoughts, and feels like home is standing right beside them in real life. What begins as casual letters evolves into an intimate slow burn of ink and longing, blurring the line between friendship and something deeper. But when the truth of their identities comes to light, Jared and Jensen must face the hardest question of all: will the connection they've built between the lines survive once it steps into the spotlight?

Jared Padalecki never expected a charity live stream to change his life. As one of the biggest YouTubers in the world, he's used to millions tuning in, but this time it's different, the event is dedicated to men's mental health, and everyone, from celebrities to major brands, comes together to support the cause. The spotlight grows brighter when an unexpected guest joins the campaign: the President of the United States, Jensen Ackles. Jensen never planned on being charmed by a whirlwind of youthful energy and sincerity broadcasted through a glowing screen. Jared, with his easy smile and relentless compassion, is unlike anyone Jensen has ever met in his carefully guarded political life. What starts as a public collaboration soon deepens into stolen moments, cautious text exchanges, and the quiet pull of two men discovering a connection neither of them anticipated. But falling for each other means balancing a world of cameras, public scrutiny, and impossible expectations. Between the chaotic rush of fame and the weight of presidency, Jared and Jensen must navigate the line between duty and desire. A strangers-to-lovers, slow-burn romance where one live stream sparks more than just donations, it sparks a love that could reshape their worlds.

Set during the filming of Supernatural's sixth season, Jensen Ackles is quietly drowning in the grief of losing his wife, Danneel, while doing everything he can to stay strong for their daughter, JJ. His best friend Jared Padalecki is right there beside him, on set, offset, in the long, sleepless nights when Jensen feels like he's unravelling. What begins as friendship and support slowly, tenderly, grows into something more. As they navigate the blurred lines between co-stars, best friends, and fathers raising JJ together, Jensen learns that love doesn't have to end with loss. It can heal, surprise, and burn just as deeply the second time around. A slow-burn friends-to-lovers story about grief, healing, and finding home again.

When Jared attends his ex's wedding, he expects nothing but heartbreak, tears, regret, and the suffocating weight of watching the life that should've been his slip away. What he doesn't expect is Jensen. One intoxicating night with a stranger at the reception was supposed to be meaningless, just a way to numb the ache in his chest. But nothing in the omegaverse is ever truly meaningless. Jensen isn't just any Alpha. He's got secrets, ties to Jared's past that no one dares to speak aloud, and an intensity that shakes Jared to his core. Suddenly Jared's one night of weakness spirals into a dangerous entanglement where every truth feels like a lie, every bond feels like fate, and every choice could shatter the fragile control he clings to. In a world where Alphas and Omegas play dangerous games of power and vulnerability, Jared must decide whether to run from the storm Jensen brings or surrender to the fire and risk being consumed by it.

Jensen Ackles has been carrying a secret since the day he met Jared Padalecki, a secret he's never dared to say out loud. Instead, he hides behind the anonymity of his blog, pouring every unspoken feeling into poems and letters signed only as J, each one addressed to Jay. But when a fan uncovers the truth, that J is Jensen, and Jay is none other than Jared himself, the quiet world Jensen built comes crashing down. Suddenly the internet is ablaze, Jared is looking at him differently, and the walls Jensen has spent years building are threatening to collapse. Set during the height of Supernatural's season four, this friends-to-lovers slow burn unravels in stolen glances, hidden words, and the terrifying possibility that Jared might feel the same way. But how long can Jensen keep J's identity in the dark before the truth, and his heart demand to be revealed?

Behind the smiles and stage lights, Jared is quietly unraveling. The weight of expectation, fame, and a relentless inner darkness has turned each day into a silent war. But Jensen sees through it all-the tired eyes behind the laughter, the aching pauses between takes, the way Jared clings to moments of stillness like they might save him. As the lines between their on-screen brotherhood and off-screen bond begin to blur, Jensen refuses to stand by and watch the person he loves disappear. With quiet patience and unwavering loyalty, he becomes Jared's anchor through the storm-fighting not to fix him, but to stand with him in the dark, reminding him he's never alone. A tender, slow-burn love story about finding light in the shadows, In the Quiet Hours explores the healing power of presence, the courage it takes to stay, and the kind of love that doesn't try to rescue you-but holds your hand until you can breathe again.

okay...so I typically don't right Wincest...but it was recommended...almost (was definitely) begged for. in order to right this I just pretended it was Jensen and Jared....not related at all...but even then...they are 'practically' brothers and all so it was pretty hard. I hope those of you reading my book enjoys this (especially you, the little shit who got on your knees and _begged_)

Fame is loud. Pain is quieter. Jared's smile has always been a little too bright, something Jensen and Misha know all too well. When the cameras stop rolling and the laughter fades, Jared begins to unravel beneath the weight of expectations, past trauma, and a quiet storm of depression he can't seem to shake. But love doesn't demand perfection. It offers presence. As Jared struggles to keep afloat, Jensen, steady and loyal, and Misha, gentle and intuitive, refuse to let him drift away. Together, the three of them build a sanctuary where it's okay to cry, to be held, to heal slowly. Through shared memories, late-night confessions, and the soft power of touch, they find a rhythm that doesn't erase Jared's pain but gives it somewhere to rest. This is a story of vulnerability, found family, and a love that doesn't try to fix, but simply stays.
