SWEET & SPICE Series #1 ||APPLE & ECHO|| R-18 Asherin Apple Boones has never tried to be anything other than himself. A blunt, feminine boy with a sharp tongue and a stronger spine, Apple refuses to shrink just because people think a man shouldn't look or act like him. While others whisper behind his back or stare at him like he's something strange, Apple doesn't care. He'd rather stand up for people who can't defend themselves-even if it makes him look even more "weird" in their eyes. But if there's one thing that truly lights up Apple's world, it isn't people-it's reptiles. Snakes, especially. While others recoil in disgust, Apple's eyes sparkle with fascination. He hates furry animals, but show him a serpent and he'll talk about it for hours. So when he meets someone who shares the same unusual interest, Apple can't help but be intrigued. Echo Nasil, a calm and intelligent professor, also happens to be the older brother of Apple's best friend. Unlike everyone else, Echo isn't bothered by Apple's blunt personality, nor does he judge his strange obsession with snakes. In fact, he seems to understand him more than anyone ever has. Their shared fascination becomes the reason they grow closer, conversation after conversation, moment after moment. But Echo Nasil isn't just a professor with the same interests. Behind his quiet smiles and patient demeanor lies something deeper-something intentional. Because while Apple believes their bond was built on coincidence, Echo knows the truth. Meeting Apple was never an accident. And the closer Apple gets to the man who finally makes him feel seen, the more he begins to wonder- Was Echo drawn to him because they are alike...or because Echo has been watching him all along?
