SLEEPSONG (BoyxBoy)✔️
In the beginning... he was like a storm: violent, dangerous, and perfectly capable of destroying everything in his path. He'd gotten his hands on everything needed to pin me in his trap. My home... my belongings... my life -- he could have taken any of them at any time, and I wouldn't have been allowed to so much as let out a single protest. In the end, though, what he ended up wanting more than anything else in the world was something I swore up and down I wouldn't ever give him. Me. 🌺👑💛👑🌺 Aerin Vanderhill is uncertain of who he is on the inside and what he really wants out of life. For seventy-five years, he's lived very quietly in a small but futuristic American town, sleeping during the day and occasionally meandering around at night, basically just wondering at his own depressing existence. His family is long dead and everyone he once loved is gone, so for him, all that's left is the silence of being alone... of mimicking life because its there and he has it. Its boring, but what's an awkward, socially inept vampire who's only true form of human contact comes through playing online video games supposed to do? Nothing. That's right, nothing. Because doing something would make him spiral. That's why he sticks to his routine, no matter how pointless it feels to him. Unfortunately, his simple way of living comes to an immediate end when a dangerous, beast-like man with strange powers and even stranger origins comes gallivanting into town, hunting for the so-called "leech" who lulls his victims to sleep before preying on them. Aerin is soon certain he's going to be murdered, but fate might just have other plans. (This is a story featuring male only romance. LGBT+) TRAILER INSIDE!

Valentine was an orphan with no memories of her family, all she had left was an old necklace-and the scars from years in an abusive relationship. When she finally escapes, she seeks protection from her old friend Kenji, a man she once secretly loved, despite knowing he could never love her back. But safety is fleeting. Kenji's domineering boyfriend exudes danger and dominance, in turn to always make Valentine feel on edge around him and the tension between the three of them crackles with dark, forbidden desires. Valentine discovers her bloodline is anything but innocent-she's the daughter of a fallen drug lord who before death claimed him left a promise of her hand in marriage to the powerful and brutal Caine family. Worse still, Tyler, her ex-boyfriend, knew it all along. His love was a lie, his only goal to secure a child and seal their family's legacy. Trapped between deadly secrets, a tempestuous connection with Kenji and his lover, and the dark legacy she's inherited, Valentine's life is a dangerous game of power, passion, and survival. Will she sink under the weight of her past, or rise to claim her own future?

Unfolding Eternity: The Eternity Series Vol. 2
Corey Reeves thought he had already lived through his worst nightmare-until Daniel came back from the dead... or undead depending on how you look at it, to rip open wounds that had never truly healed. The brother he was never meant to meet. The man whose death dictated the course of his life. Now, the one responsible for every terrible thing that has happened to him, Brittany, and the all people he cared about. Annemarie Vallier has spent centuries in the shadows, watching, waiting-until Corey was finally within her reach. But as their bond deepens, so does the weight of Daniel's deception. He isn't just another enemy; he is solely responsible for the pain in Corey's eyes, the mastermind pulling the strings long before she knew he was behind it all, but how did she miss it? Torn between revealing the full extent of Daniel's motives and keeping Corey from spiraling even deeper into rage, Annemarie is finding herself battling more than just old skeletons. The connection between her and Corey is undeniable, it's intense, and far more consuming than she ever expected. As danger is closing in from all sides, there's no time to slow down, no room for hesitation. Knowing Daniel's betrayal is just the beginning of what's to come. If Corey and Annemarie want to survive what's coming next, they have to decide just how far they're willing to go for revenge, for redemption, and for each other.
