In a world where the dead refuse to rest and ghosts whisper louder than the living, Dante only ever wanted peace. He keeps his distance, hides behind cold manners and sharper words, and pretends that silence is enough. Even though ghosts always denied him that one simple pleasure.
One bright day brought many changes. One of them being reckless, and far too curious for his own good, a young man who decided to annoy Dante more than the ghosts. What begins as irritation turns into something far more dangerous: understanding. And between the weight of the past, the stir of monsters, and the moments when the veil between worlds grows thin, Dante discovers that love, much like ghosts, is never gentle.
A story about warmth finding its way through frost. A psychological romance about the living, the dead, and everything in between.

(MalexMale) The Bleeding King [Crimson Immortal Series: Book 1]
In a world with three realms, Human, Immortal, and Ghost, the lonely Lich King Sei finds himself in an odd situation. Magically bound to the charismatic young mage, Zhil, who mastered the forbidden soul magic, is obligated to fulfill his three curses. Unbeknownst to him, ulterior machinations are happening in secret that will involve the rest of the world. A world on the brink of collapse from Immortal and Ghost scheming. Sei is forced to relive painful memories of his past and learn how they are intertwined with his current situation. Will he be able to fulfill Zhil's wishes and be set free? PREVIEW: Sei watched the man intently grovel behind his red veil, hiding the wicked smile staring back. He tilted his head to the side. "Say it again." His voice was still as quiet as a whisper. The man stammered, "Say wh..what?" "My name." Clink...Sei took a step closer to the cowering man. The man looked behind himself as if there was any means of escape but it was hopeless. Behind him was only death, the dying cries crescendoing with each fleeting moment. Clink... He took another step. "Say it!" Sei took another and another. "SAY IT!" The words sounded twisted and deranged as if the monster from one's worst nightmare had finally come to life. The man fell to his knees and whimpered pathetically, "Crimson Warlock." Sei suddenly disappeared deep into the mist. The man shifted around scared not knowing where the Crimson Warlock went. A deep raspy laughter began subtly behind him, "That's it." Sei yanked the man back by his hair making their eyes meet finally.

✨️"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
When No One's Watching
He draws constellations on his sneakers and disappears in a crowd like he was never there. The other lights up every room he walks into-too loud, too much, and somehow still lonely. One hides behind silence. The other behind a smile. And when their worlds finally collide, it's not fireworks- It's quiet. Slow. A little bit painful. At a school where people only see what they want to, one boy is being hurt in the moments no one's around. And the only one who sees it? Pretends not to-until he can't anymore. A slow-burn love story about unspoken things, hallway bruises, unshared lunches, and the terrifying softness of being seen. Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction, inspired in part by real-life observations-moments, people, and dynamics that lingered in memory. While the characters and events are mostly fictional, some emotional experiences were drawn from things I've seen or felt in passing. If any part of the story seems to be similar to another it is unintentional. I also don't own any of the art that you might see all credits go to original owners but if you'd like to use any of the characters please ask first.Complete

He paused, taking a step closer, and this time, he didn't hesitate. His hand lifted to my face, his thumb tracing my jawline, soft and slow. "You mean everything," he said, his voice thick, rough. "And I'm done pretending that I don't feel it." I gasped, the words hitting me harder than I expected. It wasn't just the kiss now. It was the admission. The truth hanging in the air between us. His feelings-his real feelings. I didn't know what to say. Didn't know if I should say anything at all. But then, before I could even blink, his lips were on mine again.
