No one sees his true personality until he meets Kenji.
And has a dark secret hanging around him and scared to share it
Malachi and Kenji, despite being very different, become close friends and eventually fall in love and will find comfort and safety together.

Once in a Lifetime {BxB English}
IMPORTANT: Once in a Lifetime has been removed from Wattpad and is preparing for publication on Amazon. The first two chapters remain available as a preview. Please read the "READ THIS FIRST" chapter for more information and future updates. They say some loves only happen once. For Ody and Mano, that once changes everything. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen. And losing someone again isn't a risk he's willing to take. Ody is the opposite. Bright, extroverted, charming, and painfully sincere, he notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. For someone like Mano, that kind of softness is dangerous. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. What starts as tension becomes something neither of them can name, and soon, something they can't stop. But between secrets, buried trauma, and a world that won't let them exist without consequences, wanting each other comes at a cost. One keeps pushing him away. The other keeps reaching past every warning sign. Together, they burn. But when everything catches fire, love may not be enough to save them.Complete

With Our Hate
MXM. 18 AND UP. ______________________________________________ Adrien Ledger met Deacon Ashford at football camp the summer before their ninth-grade year. One fight turned into many, and by the end of the summer, they hated each other. When freshman year started, Adrien thought he'd left him behind-until Deacon transferred to his school. Adrien's luck hit an all-time low when Deacon joined his football team. For four years, they fought and attempted to keep their distance. But then Adrien's mom falls for someone new... who just so happens to be Deacon's dad. Now Adrien isn't just stuck with Deacon at school-he's stuck with him at home. Being stuck under the same roof forces them to face something neither of them ever expected. ____________________________________________ This is NOT incest. I don't support that here. (They aren't related by blood and do not have a brotherly dynamic, thank you)
Blaze (boyxboy)
Elliot Spellman wanted to live; he wanted to feel the rush everyone else did. He was tired of being just some kid in the back of the class who went home every night to study in his bedroom. That was how he found himself in an alley, dealing marijuana. He wanted this, he needed this. Not marijuana, but friends, a group, the thrill. Beatle, Mi, Trick, and Whiskey all agree that he can join them in their unlawful behavior (despite how boring his name is). And they all slowly bond, except Elliot seems to bond with Beatle more than the others. Maybe, a little too much. -- There is a second book in this universe with Whiskey as the main character it is called Asymptote --Complete

Spoiled
As if five bodyguards weren't already enough, Léonel's father assigned him a sixth. This one carried a different purpose entirely. Spoiled and reckless as ever, Léonel took it as nothing more than a bait to his own amusement, blind to what was about to unfold. A slow burn full of comedy, sharp sass, and passion-all twisted together with just the right amount of angst. jaeslut, 2026Complete

𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐁𝐎𝐘 ⋆ BL
❝Theo didn't plan on spending his summer at a boxing gym. He didn't plan on any of it, really - the job, the bullshit he accidentally stumbled into, or the guy who made it very clear, in no uncertain terms, that stumbling in his world was not going to be tolerated. Silas Crowe is not what Theo expected. Then again, Theo's not sure what he expected - the rumors never quite agreed on the details. What he does know is that Silas is difficult, and cold, and takes up more space than any one person reasonably should. And that for some reason Theo can't entirely explain, he can't stop looking. ⸻ 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐁𝐎𝐘 ⋆ i'm a motherfuckin' starboy❞

(BoyxBoy) Parker Davenport has had a secret crush on Noah Bishop, the popular boy next door, ever since he first transferred from the UK. A British accent and strip teases through their aligned windows was all it took for Parker to develop an attraction. But Noah Bishop is straight.... Isn't he?
Effortless
{This book has been published on August 12th, 2025. Read the full book on Kindle Unlimited!} His tone was low, "So you're jealous?" His lips looked so soft. "Of the guy who is good at everything without putting in an ounce of work? Yeah, maybe I am." "You wanna know what else is effortless?" Javier challenged. I bit my bottom lip. "What?" "My feelings for you." - To work so hard for something and then watch someone else do it better effortlessly is infuriating. That was definitely the case for Elias. Elias Richardson wanted to be the best at something, academics was what he chose. With a lot of hard work and dedication, he achieved his goal. So, when Javier Cortez came along and started showing him up at everything he did, he became furious. Now everything that they do is a competition, whether Javier knows it or not. But somewhere along the line that hate filled competition begins to turn into undeniable feelings that take a lot less effort. - {TW⚠️: This book contains heavy depictions of alcoholism, verbal abuse, mental health struggles, mature themes and strong language.
