Hook:
In a tight-knit world of friends and family, two young men must navigate secrets, past pain, and the quiet sparks of a love that could change everything.
Set in the second-generation Hollow Boys universe, this story follows Reign Van Doren and Atlas Caldwell, two college students navigating friendship, family, and the quiet tension of a slowly growing romance. Surrounded by their tight-knit circle of friends-Seraphina, Ezra, Andromeda, Nora, Jude, Racer, Stella, and Scout-and their supportive, playful, and occasionally mischievous parents, the kids share a life of laughter, secrets, and shared histories.
Atlas hides a painful past behind his cheerful personality, and Reign, his quiet counterpart, gradually becomes the anchor he never knew he needed. As they navigate college, high school friends, and family dinners, their connection deepens in subtle, emotional ways, while past trauma and unspoken feelings surface, testing trust, vulnerability, and the bonds of their chosen family.
Rich in humor, heart, and slow-burn tension, the story is a detailed, immersive exploration of friendship, family dynamics, and the tender beginnings of love.

🖤✨THE LAST SPELLBOUND✨🖤
Lucien's voice dropped to an intimate whisper beside his ear."Now tell me..what is the problem, Ezekiel? We're both men are we not? My state of undress shouldn't matter unless.."he moved to Zeke's other ear,"of course, it stirs something in you that feels..utterly inappropriate" ***** "I'm scared of the guilt you must carry,"Wren whispered."Knowing that inside you is a..a power so fierce. Knowing that at any moment, you could lose control and hurt the people around you. Or worse..yourself."Her thumb brushed gently over his knuckles."I can't possibly imagine what that weight feels like."Her gaze was unwavering, fierce in its compassion."Let me help you Zeke. Let me." 🖤✨ Dear reader, Zeke Aldren's magic has a body count. Sent off to Blackthorn Academy to control his magic that almost wiped out his entire village, he plans to be invisible.All he wants is control, and maybe, to feel human again. He finds that humanity in Wren, a banshee whose quiet love feels like a sanctuary. She is his ideal first love-the exact replica of what he'd always been taught to want. With her, he can almost believe in the simple, safe story he was given. But everything changes when he meets Lucien. Centuries old, utterly shameless, and whose beauty is as haunting and magnetically terrifying as his reputation, the vampire ignites a different kind of fire within Zeke-one that has nothing to do with magic and everything to do with a desire he never knew he could feel, one that could devour them both. Drawn to Lucien's dangerous allure, Zeke is forced to question everything: his power, his purpose, and the very foundation of who he is allowed to love. Wren felt safe, an anchor for his humanity but Lucien was a challenge against everything Zeke thought he knew about love and himself. In my book, love isn't just a choice..it's a weapon. *Love or loyalty? Light or dark? The wrong choice could doom them all..but the right one might destroy Zeke's heart.* Enjoy : )
Inversions and Contradictions
So I'm deep in the Sanders Sides fandom probably to an obsessive level and I've decided to take a shot at writing a popular story. The Descendants AU. Though rather than the Dark Sides being the Isle kids, though Virgil will still be the secretly good son of Maleficent, it'll be the Light Sides. Let's see what kind of story that turns out to be. Virgilant Flare had one purpose. Survive. To do that he twisted and warped into the most cruel, ruthless villain the godforsaken rock of the Isle had ever seen since his Mother; Maleficent. He had two minions(read: friends) at age 16 who he'd gladly kill for if they would just allow it. His friends were good, they deserved Auradon, no reason they couldn't make it their land though. Roman, son of Jafar, was not a street rat. He shines bright, he's brilliant, a royal among peasants. As father said their family deserved the world and more, to be kings with the world at their feet. It was such a nice image. The kind of grace and poise that was worth a man of honor, not a nimble, hapless thief. Perhaps Auradon would be the place to do so. Look out royals here comes King Roman. Us against the world. Those four words gave Patton hope. Let him know that even if Mother's love was out of his reach there was still someone to give to and see happy. His friends always worried about the lack of abandon in him. Baked sweets and smiles were well and good but otherwise he was just a mound of fat taking up space and taking advantage. Auradon would be a new start, the chance to finally be safe and just be friends. Now if only fairy tales were that simple. Twenty long years have gone by; good and evil aren't so distinct anymore as dark forces begin to stir in three friends' dreams. Trigger Warnings: Manipulation, physical and mental abuse, negative relationship with food, unhealthy body image, mentions of neglect and poverty, violence, anxiety, implied violence, implied poisoning, near poisoning, implied toxic friends, and RemRom.Complete

Plan Of Seduction
"I hate you - so much Tripp." More confusion because, once more, wasn't this a good thing? "Why did you have to say that? What if," A little quieter, just above a whisper. "What if we mess up our friendship?" "But what if we don't?" "You don't know that," I bumped his nose with my finger. "And neither do you. So, why don't we give it a shot?" He bit down on his bottom lip, hesitation and worry filling his gaze. __ This is literally a story that follows the plot of two best friends realizing their feelings for each other, yes, I know, very cliche, but I enjoyed writing it.

Tear In My Heart ✔️
"Noah, I won't do it unless you ask me to," he whispered, his voice seductively low. "What?" I asked almost breathless. "Kiss you," he murmured. "And God, there are no words for how badly I want to." **** Noah was your all American boy. Captain of his soccer team, extremely good-looking, having other boys want to be him and girls want to be with him, but there's one problem. He doesn't chase after the captain of the cheerleading squad or the girls who spread their legs open for whoever asks. In fact, he doesn't go for any girl. Instead, he hates himself when his eyes linger on a guy that his brain and heart say is cute. He's gay, and he's having a hard time accepting himself for it. It doesn't help when he wakes up almost naked in another guy's house, let alone in another guy's bed. And to make matters worse, he can't help but fall for the outspoken and extremely attractive Madison who he'd drunkenly went home with and tried to screw. Finally, to add the cherry on top of the crap-tastic cake, Noah is forced to work with Madison for at least six months, or he'll lose his beloved soccer. Nothing could go wrong, right? Throw in a bit of awkwardness mixed with a few close calls and you've got a recipe for disaster....and a tiny tear in Noah's heavily protected heart. © 2018 *endless thanks and love to @half_a_hetero for helping me with the Italian in this book.
