Gabriel Velasques has all the fame, wealth and status that comes with being the town's greatest fireman. You would assume that if you had the house of your dreams, a supermodel for a wife, and constant praise and recognition that you'd be set for life, right?
Gabriel thought that too. He thought if he had everything else in the world, he'd be able to ignore a certain part of him--a part he was happily content with ignoring and locking away--but his life has been far from ideal. Unhapilly married, smothered by work, and battling a past he doesn't want to confront, Gabriel's mental health is in a serious declination.
However, add Nathaniel Park--a cute, gay rookie firefighter--to the mix, and expect an inferno of change. Gabriel knows better to play with things he isn't allowed to touch, but he can't resist. What happens when you play with fire?

Nathaniel Angelev is a gritty, battle-hardened mafia prince who seemingly has it all - money, power, and devastatingly good looks - even though he's sacrificed a lot along the way. But the final straw isn't the knife fight that renders him mute; it's the one that forces him to take the life of his closest friend. So Nate leaves his legacy of blood and gunpowder, determined to turn state's witness and dismantle the entire organization that has caused so much pain. And he finds himself headed straight into the arms of Marshal Reid Logan, a man secretly running from a past of his own. But the usual witness protection placements fail, over and over, and after an especially close call, Reid realizes that there must be someone inside of the Marshals Service working against them. Their only option is to send Reid's partner back in to hunt the mole inside of the agency, while Reid and Nate go off the grid and hit the road together. They're constantly on the move, fighting both Nate's fearsome family and their growing attraction to one another. The Angelev specter of danger is ever-looming, leading to numerous close calls and showdowns, with the stakes climbing even higher after Reid and Nate give in to their fierce passion for one another. They come to realize what's truly worth fighting for and learn that love can grow even in seemingly impossible circumstances. *****contains language, violence, sexual content, and other things of a mature nature***** (Originally posted - in a very different form - as Destiel fanfic)Complete

The Wright Way
Ethan Wright knows what's right and what's wrong. Homosexuality is wrong to him, but then, given the background he's coming (or, more precisely, running) from, he could hardly have formed a different opinion. He doesn't allow it to affect his actions, though. He is a firefighter, and he saves lives no matter how people choose to live them. There's just that one guy that he can't quite get out of his head. The guy that circumstances keep putting in his way. The guy that makes him feel... he's not sure, how. There's not much time for him to figure that out, for his past is about to catch up with him, putting more than just his life in danger, forcing him to face uncomfortable truths and make life-changing decisions. #1 in BXB on 2022-10-01 #2 in MANXMAN on 2022-10-01 *** WARNINGS: The story contains mature themes and language.
