Gemini (Dark Roast Coffee & Worn Leather) is a meticulously controlled Alpha, hiding his intense, volatile desires beneath a bad-boy façade and a lucrative Biomed future. Living with his wealthy step-brother, Fourth, is a constant, exquisite form of torture.
Fourth (Crisp White Tea & Sharp Bergamot) is a brilliant Fashion Design major whose vibrant sassiness is his shield. Tired of years of rejection, he starts a risky game: using alluring outfits-from crop tops to sheer silks-and flirting with others, hoping to push Gemini's deep-seated jealousy into an honest confession.
The tension is a live wire. In their shared penthouse, passion erupts in stolen kisses and desperate, secret intimacy. But Gemini's crippling fear of the step-brother taboo and his high-society parents is stronger than his love. He continuously sabotages their bond, culminating in a devastating, public betrayal that dismisses Fourth's identity as mere "attention-seeking drama."
Fourth doesn't fight; he simply breaks. He packs away his vibrant art, his sassiness extinguished by heartbreak, leaving Gemini terrified by the depth of the damage he's caused.
Now, with Fourth withdrawn and his own life ruined by shame, Gemini is forced into an agonizing public choice: abandon his perfect image, sacrifice his entire career, and prove, through radical acts of devotion, that his courage is finally bigger than his cowardice.
Can the Alpha who destroyed his step-brother's heart find a way to reignite his light, or is the messy, magnificent chaos of their love too costly to survive?
The only thing more intense than the silence between them is the heat.
Extremely self-indulgent fanfic one-short collections of Gemini and Fourth in different universes. It's mostly fluff and crack. If you get my sense of humor you will find them funny.
