It seems like everyone Lake knows has already met their other half. He's spent years in waiting but has finally turned his back on fate. The counterpart system is simple but his life is not, so he doesn't expect it to work for him as it has for everyone else. He joins the League as the next logical step in his life. It's the best option for anyone with powers, and Lake can control ice. His new career will serve as a distraction from the disappointment of the counterpart system if nothing else. When Lake is assigned to an undercover operation that he's out of his depth with from the beginning, he gets far more than he bargained for. His friends have told him their stories of how they met their counterparts, but he's pretty sure that he can top all of them after he encounters the son of the man he is supposed to arrest.

REMOVED April 9, 2024 One notorious gay heartbreaker. One homophobic ex-best friend and his kleptomaniac brother. Mix in a sex tape, commitment issues, and some explosive chemistry. The illusion of Dreyden's perfect life can't survive this disaster. ***** Dreyden is very good at being who others wants him to be. He's an obedient, church-going son, a perfect student, the life of every party. Maintaining the equilibrium means staying in the closet at home, so it's lucky his parents don't suspect a thing when he lies. When others are happy, it's easy to forget that he isn't. After one drunk night gets out of control, Dreyden dumps his loving boyfriend rather than admit to what he did. Adrift and increasingly alienated from his friends, he finds himself sucked into Orion's dysfunctional orbit. Orion has a habit of taking things that don't belong to him, but what's worse is his angry, homophobic brother, who used to be Dreyden's best friend. Bad habits might be harder to escape than the gravity of unwanted feelings, but maybe Dreyden's equilibrium isn't as stable as he pretends. And maybe Orion is about to disrupt it all, whether Dreyden is ready or not. It's just a shame that bad people don't get happy endings. ***** Contains sexual content, profanity, underage substance use, and themes of consent, mental health, homophobia, and coming out. *featured on Wattpad's "Stories to Read OUT Loud" list* Complete at 137k words.
