Ashes of the Last Sun
Seventeen-year-old Ash Thorne lives in a world where beauty has withered, cities lie in ruins, and the rot-both literal and emotional-devours from within. Haunted by death, burdened by hunger, and tainted by the shadows that stalk his every step, Ash fights to survive in a crumbling world where cannibalism is whispered behind closed doors and love is a forgotten myth. With his younger brother Richard clinging to hope and his older sister Lilith drifting toward something darker, Ash walks the line between protector and monster. But everything shifts when he meets Storm Royal, a quiet boy with ink-black eyes and a past he won't speak of. Their bond grows in graveyards and abandoned places, carved from whispers and quiet touches, until love blooms in a place it was never meant to survive. As secrets unravel and the rot spreads, Ash must decide what he's willing to sacrifice-his soul, his sanity, or the boy who became his home. A story of blood and blossoms, grief and graveyards, tenderness in ruin. Love doesn't always save the world. But in the darkest corners, it just might save two boys.Complete
A Breath of Fresh Air
For 17-year-old high school senior Evan Brooks, life could be better. He's a social outcast at school, stuck in a rural Alabama small town he never wanted to move to, and he's got a secret he's desperately trying to keep: he's gay. When he embarks on a weekend vacation to the Florida panhandle with his hypermasculine brother, homophobic stepdad, and aloof mother, none of them can anticipate how much a simple 3-day trip will change their lives forever... **2025 Update: Hi! This was my very first attempt at crafting an entire story from scratch all the way back in 2020, and I'd like to think my writing has since improved. I've started working on a big rewrite project, so stay tuned for a newly enhanced story! Please visit the last chapter (2025 Rewrite Info/Updates) for more details. In the meantime, the original story will remain here in full - just know that I know some parts of it are cringe lol. I hope you still enjoy it though! :) Some details have changed between this story and Road to Rockdale in anticipation of the rewrite, so please excuse some inconsistencies if you're coming from that story. I promise everything will line up eventually! CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times.Complete
