AN inseparable trio breaks into an emotional parting, and they must find their way back to each other. . . .

Samuel Crisostomo used to be out only to two people, his best friends Fernan and Rinia, before he came out publicly. His home isn't a safe space for his queerness so he's only ever himself when with them at Rinia's place.

For four years of junior high school, the three of them are a team, solid and inseparable. When one drunken night leads to a drunken sex, and the drunken sex leads to a secret relationship, and ultimately to a bitter parting, the inseparable trio is separated. But when they're grouped together for their research subject, their broken hearts are tested and unhealed old wounds are reopened.

As the trio pays the consequences of having two friends taking their friendship into a whole new commitment, they must now work to fix all their broken pieces and treat all their wounds or say goodbye to their friendship forever.

Reap the Earth at Which you Stand [boyxboy] by FKNichols17
55 parts Complete Mature
Growing up in chaos isn't simple for all. Not many could cope. They would struggle and kick, but ultimately drown. However, for Dakota, that was his normality. Torturing. Maiming. Killing. That was his life, the life of a hunter. The Arizona line was elusive, written fame in the lore of hunters, and infamy for their prey. They were the best. No one could ever compare to their skills, their abilities, their ruthlessness. But Dakota was something else. His siblings might have learnt to enjoy the hunt, well most of them anyway, but Dakota didn't. There was always something missing for him, something he was waiting on. Silent and everlasting hope. A promise had been made to him, the day his twin brother was stolen, taken by the enemy, plucked right from the very home the Arizonas had grown up in. A promise of something better, something that he might actually want in his life. Now, almost sixteen years later, something was coming. A change was begging to be found. Maybe it would be for the best. Maybe Dakota would finally find that certain something that had been missing his whole life, something to fill the dark and fractured abyss that ached and wailed within. But nothing was ever that simple. Because, of course, the promise that had been made to Dakota would never be anything plausible for him, anything tangible to have and to hold. He had been promised a new life, by the greatest enemy of them all. It wouldn't be easy. Not with his family still clinging to his heels, the teachings of blood and violence burnt into his mind. No, leaving them behind wouldn't ever be easy. Then again, staying with them would only bring his inevitable death. Why not take the chance to die happy? After all, out of the ashes, a phoenix will rise...

Sex, drugs and the death-dealing pressure to make money night after night - It's a steep, downward spiral which 20-year-old Elijah Everdeen has found himself stuck in ever since his parents died. If it weren't for his two siblings, he would have given up years ago. For a long time, he wanted to, thought about it every day even. Sometimes - in the cruelest, darkest of nights - he still does. But if this black-and-white world has really become Elijah's grim reality, then why is this young, mysterious man capable of adding color and a heartbeat to this dreadfully achromatic still life Eli is trapped in? Who is he? And...who is he REALLY? ~~~~~ DISCLAIMER: The storyline of this book is entirely fictional, it does not intend to mimic or describe real circumstances.

My Best Friends Brother - Book Three in The Forbidden Lust Series "You're my best friends little brother Milo, we can't do this." Looking at me with those f**king gorgeous pale hazel eyes, I know I can't keep holding back from him for much longer, this pull dragging me towards him is too strong. He steps in even closer, his coffee stained breath mixing with my own until the taste of him is all that coats my tongue. "I'm not a kid anymore Josh.." Joshua Jones, everyone's favourite best friend. Losing the love of his life ten years ago meant one thing for him - surrendering to a life alone. Instead he chose to focus on the family he built for himself, channelling all he had into making sure they were all happy, even if he wasn't. Coming back after a few years away from Westbrooke, not too much has changed; everyone was carrying on with their lives, while he stays stagnant. They were having kids, getting married, running businesses... Josh doesn't even have someone to kiss goodnight. He's okay though, really, or so he thought... Until he finds out something definitely has changed - Milo Thompson. The once shy geeky little brother of his best friend is no longer the child he once knew, that right there is a damn man. A man that he shouldn't be drawn too.. A forbidden man... Throw in a crazy teenage sister, overly involved best friend, sexuality confusion, hot business rival, evil ex-sister in-law/fathers mistress and all your favourite psycho's from our original Westbrooke tales.... Then ladies and gentlemen, we have got ourselves a story. *BOOK THREE IN THE FORBIDDEN LUST SERIES! MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE FIRST TWO BOOKS AHEAD! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND READING BOOK ONE (MY FUTURE STEPBROTHER) AND BOOK TWO (MY TWISTED LOVERS) TO UNDERSTAND THE ROAD THAT BROUGHT THESE TWO TO THIS POINT**YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED*
