When Captain John Price receives a pair of strange glasses from Soap marketed as to "fix for his shite love life" expects a gimmick, not a reality-shifting sort of thing. But the moment he puts them on, the world around him changes... and so does his door.
Enter Dorian: 6''8, tattooed, suited up, and insanely smug. With a key necklace on his chest and a voice like smoke, Dorian is everything a door shouldn't be.
Alive, teasing, and suddenly everywhere.
Bathroom? He's there. Gym? There. Back door? Still there! leaning, watching, waiting.
Price tries to ignore him after some while - But loneliness lingers deeper than his war wounds, and Dorian? Dorian sees it all. He doesn't offer friendship. He offers something heavier. Something warmer.
Something real.

TORPEDO ✓
Girls have always been enough for Dorian Ayuba; until they weren't. Now, he is a hurricane in a box, all the while piggybacking scholarships, bills and his broken mother. Then there's rich, sickly Giovanni Price whose life expectancy is just as short as his chances to bag a kiss from the naturally homophobic, yet dreadfully bicurious Dorian. They collide and it's a race above love, against nature and without time. Formerly titled as 'WILD-GOOSE CHASE'. (vote, comment and share ♥)Complete
The Tango of The Cursed
𝐈𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐭 - "It's hard to forget your past when its written all over your skin." - Colleen Beaumont is a 19 years-old village girl from the forested mountains of Cuba. Had Colleen not been labeled as La monstruosidad Blanca, maybe she would've had a childhood like the others, with parents like the others had and even love everyone else got to feel. It wasn't easy to live among the ignorant only that was nothing compared to the struggle of trying to cover up those scars they left. - You could say that the universe seemed to finally have enough pity to sprinkle some hope into her pathetic life with an opportunity to escape it all, in form of a 6'4ft Auburn haired COO, Thomas McGowan who was blessed with the face carved to resemble an angel only to have a heart that'd rotted long before his grave. - Somehow, those two souls as different from one an other as Ying and Yang yet as well fitting to each other, tangled up together, forming something almost worth calling beautiful. - "I think that true love is when two people make each other love themselves more" . Clueless x Cautious . Old money x no money . Sunshine x Grumpy . Knowing eyes, peaceful soul . Pretty smile, ugly thoughts . Fish out of the water . First Love . forced proximity . Aloof couple
Kindness has teeth
Your life is gray, quiet, forgettable - you work an office job you hate and live in an old, tiny apartment you can barely afford in a shitty neighborhood. Your neighbor, Mr. Riley, is cold, quiet and impossible to read. He helps out a few times - carrying heavy boxes, fixing things - but never sticks around long enough for a thank you that he doesn't even seem to want. Every conversation ends in silence, every interaction feels wrong. Then his face appears on the news. He's not just unfriendly - he's a wanted fugitive, linked to multiple murders and armed robberies for which he wore a skull mask to hide his identity. Shaken but relieved he's gone, you try to move on. Until the news breaks that he has escaped. !!THIS IS A SLOW BURN.!!
Fault Lines
You were trained to heal fractured minds - never expecting to find yourself unraveling his. Captain John Price comes to you claiming he's "just fine," the faint scent of smoke and gunpowder still clinging to him. His eyes hide whole wars, but his words are careful, calculated, meant to keep you out. You should keep your distance. You know the cost of getting too close. But when the nightmares he swears he doesn't have begin bleeding into the daylight, you find yourself caught in the crossfire between his shadows... and your own.Complete
Ghosted
✨️"He's dead, she's in denial, and true love has never been this haunting." ✨️ 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻 Maria doesn't believe in ghosts. She believes in school deadlines, overpriced coffee, and avoiding Salem's tourist traps like the plague. But one accidental run-in with a strange necklace changes everything-mostly because it comes with a six-foot-tall, silver-haired, Aries-tempered ghost who claims she's his "one true love." Now Dorian (cocky, dramatic, and very much dead) is haunting her life-literally. He's showing up in her bedroom, commenting on her wardrobe, and making sure no other guy gets within a five-foot radius. The worst part? Only she can see him.Complete
