Calm lives a quiet life on Moonfall Island, but lacks purpose. She may want everything to stay still, but what happens when the world around her goes topsy-turvy? At a young age her father left. And things may not be as peaceful as they really seem. Even on her little island, there are dangers that lurk in the shadows and some that are right out in the open.
The world has seen decades of order. Turmoil is unheard of on a global scale, thanks to the Ten Guardians. These well-respected, public servants sit at the Top of the World and devote their very existence to ensuring peace and eradicating corruption. But nothing can stand forever. What happens when one of the Ten Guardians suddenly, and mysteriously, dies? The seat at the Top of the World is open, and there are very few who wouldn't give anything to take it.

FOCUS [BXB]
Like a bolt of lightning, this stupid boy appeared in my life. First day of summer break between first and second grade, he just appeared- standing on my porch like he was born there. Straight brown hair, wide dark eyes and a fresh sunburn across his cheeks. He was already talking before I even opened the door. I don't know how it happened but it's been ten years. And he's still here. Talking, whether or not I'm listening. Laughing, even if no one else is. He's still too quick- racing around the world like he's scared he's going to miss it. He's gotten taller...much taller. His hair is a little longer, a little wavier, but under the light it still looks the same golden brown it did when we were nine. And now, finally, he was a high school graduate. We both were. Like a bolt of lightning he appeared and like the sun he refused to disappear. _____________________________________________ I fell asleep with my chin pointed at him, the outline of his face being the last thing I saw. How was I supposed to do this? It had always been difficult, hiding this secret, keeping him close. But now, my focus was starting to slip. I couldn't see anything but his lips, his hands, his smile. I couldn't hear anything but my name in his mouth, his jagged breaths and that loud laugh. How am I supposed to be okay with this? How am I supposed to focus on anything other than him? #1- slowburn- 11.10.25π₯ #1- friends to lovers- 11.01.25π₯ #1- fluffandsmut- 11.02.25π₯ #1- college- 11.06.25π₯ #1- best friends- 11.12.25π₯ #1- teammates- 12.04.25 π₯ #1- college roommates- 12.30.25π₯ #1- mental health- 01.02.2026 π₯ #1- gay love- 01.02.2026 π₯ #2- roommates- 12.18.25π₯ #3- bxblove- 11.30.25π₯ #4- boyxboy- 11.01.25 #4- lgbt- 11.15.25 #14- boyxboyromance- 12.15.25 #22- basketball- 12.15.25Complete
Between
She's panting, flushed and breathless like something from another century. It hurts to look at her, so stunningly alive in a way he isn't. Almost smiling, too. She has the kind of lips that need undiluted devotion. "You've always looked at me," she breathes. Yes, and he finds himself thinking about ruin. The right kind, like his knuckles against her jaw to shake her apart. Freedom. Maybe in another life, he brushes the hair off her shoulder and whispers, 'Eyes on me.' Maybe in another life, they have time. π«π πππ ππππ ππ? π»ππ πππππππ πππππππ πππππππ. She isn't his to protect. He's a cop, she's taken, and rules are rules. But Faro Wyatt has mapped every freckle on her nose and dreamt of the oceans in her eyes. His resolve is weakening. So when the radio crackles with a single call, he's breaking every rule from here on out.

The Ascent Between
Kiara Steele, a twenty-four-year-old girl, never dreamed her wedding would be sealed with silence instead of love. At twenty-four, she finds herself married to Samuel Stone, an aloof billionaire CEO, eighteen years her senior, a widower with no children, only to save her father's collapsing company. Their union is nothing more than a contract: no touch, no feelings, no expectations. But living under the same roof with a man carved from ice proves far more complicated than Kiara imagined. Samuel keeps his distance, haunted by the loss of his late wife, while Kiara struggles against the loneliness of a loveless home. For six months, they live as strangers bound by vows neither of them wanted. Until one unexpected night breaks every rule. In a story of sacrifice, secrets, and the forbidden emotions, Kiara and Samuel must decide: Will their marriage remain platonic or will fate turn it into something dangerously real? #1st in Developments (13/11/2025) ππ₯ out of 19.7K stories #1st in Wholesome (14/11/2025) β€οΈ out of 15.4K stories #1st in Aloof (17/12/2025) #2nd in Ageisjustanumber (14/11/2025) out of 1.44K stories Hello, dear readers!
