To have everything at your fingertips is no fun for Marco Perez.

A member and the keyboardist of the Philippine Band called 'The Firezone', Marco is someone who has everything but despises it. Growing up as the only child, he was spoiled and learned that he doesn't have to work for anything just to get it for himself. Life will just give the thing without any second thought. Perhaps this was the reason why he grew up the way he did: cold, short-tempered, stoic, unmoved, and more importantly, someone who doesn't value a thing because its worth wasn't seen by him.

Yet his co-member from the same band, Seb Johann Monterubio, the bassist, could endure Marco with no difficulties. Seb is mostly known as someone who's caring and sunshine-the Yang of Marco's Yin.

With this kind of relationship between the two, how would they deal with each other, especially when they unknowingly learned to know each other and Marco's sudden realization why Seb could tolerate him more than the others? Seb worked hard from the beginning: worked non-stop to pay for his school finances, supported his remaining family only by himself, bought his bass guitar, Mars, from working 24/7, and many things more Marco did not experience. With this type of experience that completely contradicts Marco's life, will he be able to learn to see how Seb means him so much to himself and to the world?

Even after everything he's done to Seb...

Even after everything that Marco did to push Seb out...

Even after everything that involves swallowing your pride, your anger, your control...

Would they end up in a better relationship with each other? When from the start, they are doomed not to be together because of being both male and being in the same band?

Seb and Marco are both negative poles-or as Marco always thought. Are their experiences enough to bring themselves the happy ending they really deserve?

Fire Fist Ace, 2nd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, has been trying to deny his feelings. His feelings for who?

Treated like a monster by strangers all his life until Whitebeard took him under his wing. When Ace saw Marco with his blue wings of flame, he blushed lightly. Ace couldn't admit to himself he was gay but soon, he succumbed to his feelings. Little did he know Marco knows that he likes him and that he also likes him. Will the two find themselves or will they be pulled apart by the challenges they face? ꕤ - boy x boy - triggering topics - angst - fluff ꕤ Additional Note: Characters are either gay, lesbian or bisexual so no worries about only having gay couples in here. Also, there'll be other couples like Lawlu (Law x Luffy), ZoSan (Zoro x Sanji), RoNa (Robin x Nami), etc. Ace is a hermaphrodite so he can get pregnant. He just doesn't know because his mom didn't tell him and Garp knew about it but decided to let the boy find out for himself. Sanji is also a hermaphrodite too and he knows that. He told the Straw Hats and they were cool with it (I love this crew). ꕤ Everyone is welcome to read. Read it if you want to. If not, just read the description. I'm fine if there's a little bit of hate comments or stuff like that because I'd laugh at them. Yes, I've got a broken sense of humor. ꕤ Alright, no more delays! Enjoy reading!

Riley Steele, an omega soldier, is ready to do whatever it takes to get accepted into a special unit in the army full of alphas, and the people standing in his way are not shy to take advantage of that. With no choice but to accept the abuse, Riley's wish comes true, and he is finally allowed to join Tactical Team 07 with a promise his life will always be hell, and the people he should be most afraid of are not the domestic terrorists trying to bring back the good old ages when omegas had less rights than tablespoons. No... It's his allies he needs to be afraid of. But maybe this team, TT-07, is different. Maybe these alphas don't mind fighting with an omega. Maybe they don't see him as fair game, a toy to use. Maybe his new partner, a grumpy older alpha, Reid Bishop, doesn't actually hate his guts like it first seems. Maybe he has found his family in this team. Maybe they see him as their brother, as equal. But it is certain there are people who hate to see a strong, skilled omega in their precious elite alpha army, and will do whatever it takes to ruin him and break his spirit. ***** Trigger Warnings: Violence, Blood, Death, Non-consensual sex (non-graphic) Ream subscribers will get more goodies from early access to additional chapters, plenty of smut scenes, art, and even more!

"I am the textbook definition of in love with you." *** Castor Rex: He's snarky, quiet and mysterious. A secret keeper. He doesn't like his life to be on display. People avoid him, even if they respect him. Jasper Red: He's polite, nice and helpful. A open book. He likes filling his life with other people and their love. People love him, they can't help it. Because of his quiet nature, snarky smirks and sarcastic words Castor has always had a hard time when it came to making friends -and keeping them. Something Jazz doesn't struggle with. With Jazz's protective nature, shyness and many friends he doesn't need someone else to fill a spot in his life -at least, that's what he thought. Then they met. And that empty part in Jazz's heart felt a little bit bigger because he started to realize Cas could fill it. Cas sees him as a grinning, happy dork he has no chance with. Jazz sees him as a adorable, grumpy jock that now, is his. Castor wants to get through the school year as quietly as possible but with how loud Jazz loves, neither of them know if it's possible, and to make matters worse they're roommates for the rest of the year. It's only a matter of time before they come together or fall apart. *** As a private person, someone who doesn't share myself with others, I can say that learning how to interact with others is difficult. It's like baking, almost, you have to mix the right ingredients together, and if you add the wrong ones things can taste hideous even if they look good. It's a lot like our words. But I've mastered how to tell someone just a little about myself but doing it in a way that makes the person in front of me think they know a lot. Jasper, somehow, sees through this every fucking time and it's absolutely infuriating. He's never satisfied with just a little of me, with my hidden truth, and it's the most annoying thing I've ever experienced. *** @STESLARA made the second POV in her book 'Jasper Red's Anomaly'

Brick has been out of the closet since he was a teen. Yet, for some reason, he only ever seems to attract closeted men. When he first joined the Rebel Souls Motorcycle Club, coming out was the first thing he did. He would never stay somewhere he wasn't accepted; he'd never hide himself. What he didn't expect to find hidden within the club, was the love of his life. Bubbles is one of the club's biggest players, hopping from soul sucker to soul sucker. His sexuality has always been straight.. so he thought. That all changes when he meets Brick. Bubbles spends the year that Brick is a prospect for the club pining after him secretly. He tries drowning himself in the club girls to forget the feelings he's having, but it doesn't work. Finally admitting their feelings to himself, and then to Brick, Bubbles still isn't ready to come out. Against his better judgment Brick begins a relationship with him, hiding it from everyone in the club. Months later, Bubbles is finally ready to come out, but Brick is at his breaking point. A stray bullet has Bubbles kissing Brick in front of the entire club. He doesn't care anymore. He almost lost the love of his life, he's tired of hiding. Until he runs scared. Just days after their heated kiss in front of the entire club, Bubbles requests nomad status from their club President. Once he's granted it, he disappears for months. The only thing Brick knows is that he's alive, and he only knows because Bubbles has to check in regularly with Prez. When Bubbles finally returns, three months later, everything has changed. Is it too late for Brick and Bubbles? Did Bubbles screw it up so badly that Brick will never forgive him?
