Nova's 18th birthday is approaching fast, and the kingdom is already buzzing with rumors of what the king has in store for his only sons coming of age celebration. Everyone is bursting with excitement, after all, it is a tradition for the next in line for the throne to court a partner during the ball which is held on the final night of the week long festivities. Maybe in another life Nova would be excited, but in this one, he can't help but sink more into his resentment.
With each passing day, thoughts continue to crowd his brain, never slowing, growing ever louder. With it, he grows more and more alone. Beyond the smiles and kind words of his people and his servants, is a fear of authority, a fear of him and what he represents. Just once, he wants someone to look him in the eyes, to treat him like just another person, to push back when he says something they don't agree with.
Why was he born into this family? What caused his mother to pass, and does he carry the same sickness? What do his dreams mean? Why was a mysterious boy smothered with bruises left in the royal garden during the dead of night? Why does Nova want to help him? And more importantly,
why does he seem familiar?

Between the stress of having a baby, having to train to be king, and figuring out his sexuality, will Prince Remiul crack under pressure? Or will he find his own happily- ever- after?Complete

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️
"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him.
