Tristan's POV

I never expected to get this close to Alexander. His warmth, his sincerity-it all felt so real. But with every moment we shared, a fear gripped me. How long could I keep up this façade? What would happen when he found out the truth about my past, the things I'd done in the name of revenge?
Alexander trusted me, and that trust was everything to me. But deep down, I feared that one wrong move, one slip-up, would make me lose everything- his trust, his love, and the fragile bond we had built.


Alexander's POV

I grew up idolizing my father, Richard, believing he was a man of strength and honor. But when I met Tristan, everything changed. His pain, his quest for revenge-it all pointed back to my father's betrayal. I couldn't believe it at first, and yet, the connection between us was undeniable. But was it love, or something else-guilt, sympathy, or the need for redemption? As the truth unfolded, I couldn't ignore my feelings, but I questioned if I was falling for Tristan out of duty or desire. Either way, we were bound together, whether by revenge or something deeper.



Two men, bound by the sins of their fathers, find themselves walking a fine line between love and betrayal. Tristan, haunted by the past, wonders if he can ever truly trust Alexander-or if his secrets will destroy them both. Alexander, caught between guilt and desire, questions whether his growing feelings for Tristan are real or driven by something darker.

Can love survive the weight of lies, or will it crumble under the pressure of truth? Only time will tell.

C.L.O.S.E HEARTS (Book 3) by CammyDen12

Elias and Alexander have spent the last few years tangled in each other's orbit, their love steady and unshaken. But as the future looms closer, the reality of change begins to settle between them. Elias has finally found his path-art. It's always been a part of him, but now he's ready to make it his future. He dreams of studying at an art school, of creating something lasting. Alexander, on the other hand, is still searching. With everyone around him settling into their ambitions, he feels stuck, torn between expectations and a desire for something he hasn't quite figured out yet. When Elias is given the opportunity to spend time in a small artist village east of their countryside town, it feels like fate. A chance to grow, to learn, to connect with other artists. But distance is a fickle thing, and leaving Alexander behind-even for a little while-feels heavier than he expected. In the village, Elias meets Leo, another young artist whose work is as intense as the walls he keeps up. At first, Leo is cold, unwilling to let Elias in. But as they spend time together, painting side by side, Leo's guarded nature begins to crack. He shares pieces of himself through his art-memories of a past he can't escape, pain etched into every brushstroke. Their bond grows, built on understanding and creativity, leaving Elias torn between admiration and the echoes of home pulling at his heart. Meanwhile, Alexander struggles with Elias's absence more than he expected. The quiet of their town feels different without him. He finds himself thinking too much, questioning everything-what he wants, where he's going, who he'll be without Elias by his side every second of the day. And with the possibility of them attending different schools in the near future, the uncertainty gnaws at him. As both boys navigate their own journeys-one of artistic discovery, the other of self-realization-they're faced with the biggest question of all: Can love stay the same when everything else is changing?

Mine, all Mine (Book 1) (Mature 18+) by UntameableBeauty

Seven years ago, Tristan Knight walked away from the love of his life, Serenity Harris, without a word or a backwards glance. No goodbye. No Dear John letter. No words of apologies or excuses. She'd woken up one morning to an empty bed, her body sore; her hair wild and unkempt from their tempestuous love-making the night before. That night had been the first time Tristan told her he loved her. Their courtship had started fast. It took four hours for him to get her into bed and take her virginity and one night for her to fall head over heels in love with him. The year leading up to their final night together had been full of twists and turns, ups and downs. But she'd thought they had finally gotten to a place where they full understood and valued one another. So what happened? Why did he leave? And why had he come back today of all days? Her wedding day. To his former best friend and band mate, Nyle Wentworth. Nyle has been there for Serenity ever since Tristan left her heart in irrepairable pieces. Nyle loved her back to life and in spite of her love for Tristan, she found herself drawn to him. Now they're about to get married. Nyle won Serenity fair and square and he doesn't feel bad about actively pursuing her, falling in love with her, marrying her, or spending the rest of his life with her. He and Tristan were friends but that's all in the past. And that's where he intends to keep it. All Serenity wants to do is to marry Nyle, be happy, and go on with her life but the reappearance of the love of her life is making that more than difficult. Tristan is back, he wants what's his, and he doesn't care who he has to destroy or kill to have it. Now that Tristan's back, Serenity finds herself torn between what her heart wants and who her head knows is the better choice. **For mature audiences only (18+)

"A mate will love you and only you. No other can compare to you and he or she will treasure you above all and everything in the world," mommy says to me as she kissed my forehead. I sighed dreamily. I can't wait till I find my mate. He'll be perfect and handsome and funny and smart and brave and beautiful and he'll love me... only ever me... and... and... Present This hurts so much. Seeing and hearing and knowing my mate, the one who's supposed to love me above all, me, only me is in love with somebody else. I'd hate him if I could. I'd reject him if I could...

~Trust Me ~ by insanelysane2552

"I want a divorce." And just hearing him say that my whole world that seemed to revolve around him stopped. Gathering myself I barely managed to speak in a voice that even I could not recognise. I couldn't comprehend anything going around me. "Wh..hy?" As soon as the words left my mouth he threw the file and the photographs spread across the floor. And those photographs had me in compromising positions with not one but several men. Looking at those photos I looked straight into his eyes. Disgust and hatred. The only emotions I could see. Taking a deep breath I composed myself and tried to keep my face void of the emotions I felt at that moment. Hurt and immense pain. If he didn't trust me then he has no right to see me vulnerable too. "Is this the only reason why you want to divorce me? No other except this?" It was foolish of me to ask him but I had to make sure. Also for me trust comes before love. If he doesn't trust me I don't even want to save the relationship. "Is this not enough you whore? What else can I expect from a slut and a gold digger like you! I knew it from the start that all you showed was just a facade. Your innocence, kindness, it was all fake. I just don't believe how can I be so dumb." Was I hurt? No I was broken beyond repair. My heart ached. I felt like I was seconds away from collapsing. I had far exceeded the limit of hurt and pain. I was so powerless in that moment that I couldn't even fight with him. Love makes you strong. I have heard and felt that countless times but they always forget to mention what comes after that. Love makes you weak too. I couldn't shout at him because I loved him. But I had to be brave. For myself. ************************************************** Is love enough for two people to be together or is there something more important than love? This is story of Xander and Sophie who loved each other but still couldn't be together. Because more important than love is trust. © All rights reserved

THE SHEIKH'S TRIBUTE by Mussojj9

"How long will you keep on rejecting me ya amar..... The longer you keep me waiting, the more my patience will run out my dear." He whispered in my ear he pushed me to the wall. I could feel his breath on my neck making me shudder. How did this happen? How did we get in this position. I am not going to lie I wanted him... God knows how much. I wanted his body on mine, wanted to feel his hard callused hand around my neck as he pushed against me. He chuckled when he heard my whimper. "See ya helo you also want this.... You crave it as much as I do." He said as he pushed his hand under my silk shirt as he ran his finger on my nipple as I bit my lip to hold in my moan. " No..... No... Don't hold back... I want to hear that delectable voice of yours" Things were not supposed to turn out like this. He was not supposed to notice me. I was not supposed to want him and most of all he was never meant to want me too. This book contains Man to Man action. Simply meaning this is a Gay Mature book. If it's not your plate of pasta then please move along. Otherwise please enjoy.

9 Years Later by CYDream1

They met for the right reasons but at the wrong time. She was just about to graduate from college, and he was already a successful CEO/Businessman who is ten years her senior. A city love like no other. Enter the world of Alecx and Tristan, brought together by fate, only to be separated by unexpected circumstances. Will there be a second chance for them when they meet again 9 years later? A story about chasing dreams, friendship and love.... "A love story that will make you swoon. Definitely a fun, entertaining and feel-good read. " - A Reader's Comment Excerpts: 1) I saw her hug one of the guys in that department and kissed him on the cheek. I don't really deal a lot with our employees. I am mostly either inside my office or in the boardroom conducting meetings, so I do not even know who this guy she is smitten with. Just seeing her do that caused a twinge of jealousy inside me. I barely know this girl and yet, she is making me feel something I have not felt before. 2) I gave him a dagger look and tried to get away from his hold, but he did not let me. Instead, he put both his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. Our faces are just inches away from each other. He was looking at me intently. My heart is beating so fast. I feel like I am going to melt from his gaze. "I am just messing with you. I am sorry. Forget about what I said. Just dance with me. For old time's sake." He smiled at me. I continued to look him straight in the eyes. "Why did I ever leave this amazing man in front of me?" I asked myself regretfully. I set aside all my inhibitions and placed both my arms around his neck. Even just for tonight, I will enjoy this moment. I rested my head on his shoulder and nuzzled my face on his neck. I hope we can stay like this forever.

It Was Never Said: "Not Every Love Has A Place" by erikderochefort

It Was Never Said: "Not Every Love Has a Place" is a quiet, aching tale of love that exists in the spaces between words, in stolen glances, and in moments that never quite become more. Erick, known to his friends as Posh, is beautiful, bold, and beloved. With his flawless style, signature sass, and head-turning looks, he's the heart of every room he walks into. When he's sweet, he's Posh. When he's sarcastic and extra? That's when the teasing begins, and out comes Chanel. But behind the glamorous facade lies a fragile truth. He's fallen for someone he can never have. Tristan, calm and enigmatic, belongs to someone else. Still, there's a connection between them, a tension neither dares to name. They are all part of a tight-knit circle working at the city's most prestigious fashion magazine, a world dazzling with beauty yet unforgiving to hearts that feel too deeply. While the world sees only the fabulous surface, Erick silently wrestles with feelings he chooses not to act on, not because they aren't real, but because he still believes in a kind of love that doesn't need to be claimed to be true. Through late-night talks, subtle exchanges, and moments that linger a bit too long, Erick learns that real love sometimes means choosing peace over passion. Sometimes it means silence over confession. And sometimes, it means letting go... even when your heart never asked to hold on. This isn't a love story that ends with a kiss. It's a love story that ends with quiet dignity. A choice to walk away with grace, even when the love was never said.
