Wild Hearts by EffervescentElixir

Anxious. Alone. Afraid. Aiden Griffin never asked to be any of these things, but they define his existence, shaping every moment, ruining any chance for connections, and carving deeper into him with every passing day. His life is a quiet battle, one fought in solitude-lost in the woods, wandering through forgotten cemeteries, and navigating the decaying corners of an uncaring city. He's far from the world that's hurt him, but the words still haunt, sharp and unforgiving. Isolated by the cruelty of those around him, Aiden often feels like an outsider, his mind swirling with thoughts that others can't understand. His autism makes it harder to connect, leaving him drifting in the shadows, struggling to navigate a world that feels overwhelming and unkind. His parents are distant, and no one at school seems to notice that the golden boy everyone admires is the one person Aiden fears most. Then comes Ryder McCallum-charismatic, wild, and fearless. With a smile that could charm anyone and a penchant for adventure and bold risks, Ryder steps into Aiden's life like a whirlwind, challenging everything he's ever known. Ryder dares Aiden to step beyond the cage of his own fears, to be something more than the walls he's built around himself. But Aiden is wary, his heart too tethered to its darkness to trust the light Ryder brings. With every reckless adventure they embark on, Aiden starts to wonder if maybe, just maybe, he's meant for something more. As their friendship evolves into something more profound than either of them anticipated, Aiden finds himself drawn to Ryder, a boy as unpredictable as he is magnetic-a boy who slips away just as quickly as he arrives, leaving Aiden to question if he's chasing a dream. But no matter how elusive Ryder becomes, one thing remains undeniable: for the first time, Aiden feels alive with a love that makes him believe in something greater than himself, and he'll do whatever it takes to hold on.

My Little Junior (BL) by bharoo_rabha

Aiden, an 18-year-old high school junior from a wealthy background, lives in the shadow of expectations and privilege, but nothing prepares him for Ethan-his handsome, 22-year-old senior. Ethan is dark, possessive, and intense, someone who knows what he wants and will stop at nothing to claim it. The two find themselves drawn together in a tangled web of attraction, power, and undeniable chemistry. Aiden is the last person to expect the whirlwind of emotions that Ethan brings, and as their relationship intensifies, he begins to feel consumed by Ethan's dominance. Despite the allure of Ethan's darkness, Aiden struggles with his own sense of control and independence, trying to reconcile his growing feelings with the fear of losing himself in Ethan's world. But as the lines blur between love, obsession, and desire, Aiden realizes that there's more at play than just raw passion. Ethan is as broken as he is, and their connection is deeper than anything Aiden could have imagined. Will Aiden be able to surrender to the pull of Ethan's love, or will the intensity of their connection tear them apart? Bound by desire, they are forced to confront their darkest fears, navigating a dangerous love that is at once passionate and possessive, sweet and destructive.
