Smallville Sunlight (Clark Kent X reader)
Y/N Wayne is a creature of Gotham's shadows, her life a carefully curated performance of galas and paparazzi smiles, a legacy from her father, Bruce. All she craves is one summer of anonymity-of quiet, of realness. She finds it in Smallville, working on the Kent farm. And she finds him. Clark Kent is everything her world is not: honest, grounded, and with a warmth that feels like the Kansas sun itself. He sees past the "Wayne" name to the person she is underneath. But as a Gotham princess falls for a farm boy, the shadows of her old life begin to loom. Can something so simple and pure survive when her world is built on secrets, and his is, too?
Unethical ~ Clark Kent
At the Daily Planet, truth is everything - but some truths are unbearable. Elara Vance has built her career capturing honesty through a lens. Her photographs stop time, reveal what others overlook, and turn chaos into beauty. She sees the world clearly - except when it comes to Clark Kent. Clark is warmth in human form - steady, kind, impossibly good. And that's the problem. He's the man who never misses a deadline, never lets a promise break, never stops running when someone else needs him. Especially Lois Lane. To everyone else, they're just colleagues, best friends bound by a lifetime of headlines. But to Elara, it feels like standing in a shadow that will never move. She doesn't resent him. She can't. But loving Clark Kent feels like loving something you're never meant to have - too pure, too unreachable. And every time he leaves without explanation, every time his eyes flick to his phone mid-conversation, Elara feels the quiet ache of being almost enough. Until Clark finds out. When he learns what she's been hiding behind her calm smile - the loneliness, the doubt, the quiet conviction that she'll always come second - it shatters him. Because for all his strength, Clark has one fatal flaw: he's never known how to put himself first. And for the first time in his life, he wants to. He wants her. Determined to prove that his heart belongs only to Elara, Clark begins to fight - not for the world, but for her. Every rescue, every story, every secret he's kept becomes a test of devotion. But loving Elara means learning to be human in a way Superman never has - to be vulnerable, to stay, to choose her even when the world burns for his attention.Complete
COINCIDENCE, clark kent.
"𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞!" Fiona Starling never believed in fate. She trusted logic, facts and headlines, not destiny. As a hard-nosed journalist in Metropolis, her world was grounded in truth, not fantasy. So when Superman kept showing up to save her-again and again, even when danger wasn't near- she told herself it was just a coincidence. But those lingering glances... the way his touch stayed too long... the way her heart beat faster whenever he was near- it all felt like something more. And Fiona couldn't let it go. Determined to uncover the truth, she turns to the one man who seems to know everything about Superman: the quiet, insightful reporter Clark Kent. But as she digs deeper into the mystery, Fiona begins to uncover secrets. One in particular that could rewrite everything she thought she knew about Superman... and herself. Because some coincidences aren't coincidences at all. [clark kent/superman x fem!oc] [superman]
