    Summary

    A warm, slow-burn gay vampire romance, set against a lush gothic backdrop.

    It's the summer of 1822 when Avery Bedford, a tenacious young butler, is abruptly let go from his hard-earned position. He travels gloomily to his new place of employment: a vast old manor, perched on the edge of a desolate moor. Despite his dwindling expectations, he's determined to try making the best of it—but it isn't long before he's swept headlong into a terrifying mystery, and then a catastrophic transformation.

    In the wake of this tragedy, only two options remain:

    To learn the history, and thus the motives, of the solitary and enigmatic count who took the very last of his hope...

    Or to kill him.

    ~

    This is the complete, illustrated, and freely downloadable first book of an original novel consisting of four volumes, the last of which is in progress!

    Summary

    Noe has a sweet tooth-- more specifically, he has a sweet tooth for the delicious baked goods that Vanitas makes. Actually, it doesn't even have to be sweet; it just has to be made by Vanitas.

    Vanitas, despite his efforts to portray himself to the contrary, enjoys baking for Noe. Perhaps a little too much, seeing that his baking habits (and Noe's eating habits) are beginning to have an effect on Noe's waistline.

    Noe, naturally, hardly seems to notice at first. Vanitas does, but Noe is a grown adult, and if he wants to fill out that cafe uniform and then eat his way out of all his clothes, well, who is Vanitas to stop him?

    (This is a kink fic. Don't like, don't read. There may be smut later on.)

    Summary

    Domi laughed, leaning forward and tapping her fingers on his chin, tilting his gaze up to her meet her eye. “Seems like it’s time to retire then,” she murmured, and he understood that, eyes fixated on the pulse beating in her throat and already imagining the sweet bliss of sinking his fangs in right…there.

    Noé was suddenly so thirsty that his mouth was dry.

    Summary

    Paris is a city of fleeting encounters, of voices lost in the crowd and faces that vanish into the night. But when Noé Archiviste serves Dominique de Sade at the café where he works, something shifts.

    To her, it is a chance meeting.
    To him, it is fate.

    Polite smiles, casual recommendations, the brush of fingers over a paper cup, everything feels intentional when seen through his eyes. But as shadows of the past flicker at the edge of his vision and old ghosts threaten to resurface, Noé’s devotion begins to blur the line between protection and possession.

    Because love, after all, is just another story.
    And in this story, nobody’s innocent.

    Summary

    It seemed so simple now. Nothing had exploded. No one died. No arms were blown off. They’d just… kissed and fallen asleep. It had been nice. Simple and very, very nice.

    And Naruto might not have been single.

     

    Or: The one where Sasuke finds out that Naruto had been dating Gaara before they got together and tries to stay very cool.

    Summary

    Sasuke and Naruto had both signed up for the company at the age of eighteen, each filled with a desire to explore the stars. Neither of them anticipated falling in love along the way, nor did they foresee the challenge of navigating their feelings alongside whatever cosmic horrors the universe chose to unleash upon them on any given day.

    Summary

    They met on a rooftop in Ibiza.
    Got married in Paris.
    And never told each other what they really did for a living.

    Everyone has secrets.
    Vanitas’s are classified.
    Noé’s involve knives, regret, and a very real body count.

    Married? Check.
    Emotionally unavailable? Also check.
    Trained killers working for rival agencies? Unfortunately, yes.

    Noé and Vanitas are everything you want in a power couple—if “power” means mutual sabotage, unresolved sexual tension, and one toothbrush neither of them will admit sharing.

    But when a new assignment brings their lies too close to the surface, they’ll have to remember how to fight together.

    Even if they’ve forgotten how to hold each other.

    A love story disguised as a therapy session, disguised as a marriage, disguised as espionage.
    Featuring sex, secrets, sharp objects, and one very demanding cat.

    Summary

    A wave of something indescribable washes over him, like longing but so much more bitter. It’s twisted and dark. Like some swampish black and dirty facsimile of what he felt for Erwin in those early days.

    “What do you want, Zeke?” He breathes.

    “An opportunity” Zeke says, carefully, as though he’s picking through the words to find the perfect ones. “A chance to put this to rest. An opportunity to test if ties really do bind, Levi, Make some new ones. Am I really such a terrible alternative?”

    Levi considers it; Considers the tension and fear that’s been wrought through him since Zeke first started staring at him like a specimen and not an adversary. He thinks about the hopelessness he feels like a constant companion. There is nothing left, he thinks sickeningly, absolutely nothing left to lose.

    Summary

    When Hua Cheng loses all his memories of Xie Lian, afflicted by a tricky curse, there’s only one way to get them back: Xie Lian has to get Hua Cheng to kiss him.

    It shouldn’t be too difficult, right?

    Xie Lian has a plan.


    “Greetings, Chengzhu,” Xie Lian said. “Apologies for the intrusion. Actually, I’ve been gifted to you by the heavens as a…”
    His voice caught.
    “I mean, to—”
    Xie Lian’s cheeks suddenly felt hot, and his palms grew damp under the rope binding his arms together. Beneath Hua Cheng’s piercing stare from above, he lost his cool.
    “As your,” he stammered. “Um, as—well—if you want, I’ve been sent to you as—I’m here to be your—”

    Summary

    Noé was a man who fulfilled his promises. And so Vanitas had asked—for the final mercy—and deliver Noé did, not as swiftly as he would have hoped for, but it was his hands and nothing mattered beyond that. It was done. Except death seemed reluctant to keep Vanitas, and so he was returned, with a year's worth of memory completely lost from his mind.

    or; Noé kills Vanitas. The Mark refused it, and wiped Vanitas' memories of Noé completely instead. Set a year after canon.

    Summary

    Nine at night, as per usual, he walks in. He being the man who, without fail, would pop in right before closing time and purchase the most obscene items Noé had ever witnessed. One time, the man plopped something on the conveyor belt Noé didn’t even know the store sold. He rung him up, as usual, and never got the chance to ask - the man left as quickly as he had come. Noé desperately wished to have a name to connect the man with, but every time he got close to asking, the guy had gone.

    Or, Noé works at a grocery store and Vanitas buys weird shit every night.

    Summary

    Noé swallows around the lump in his throat. “Why are you here?” He forces himself up and onto his feet. His legs are shaking, and every twitch sends throbbing pain rattling through thin joints.

    He props one hand against the wall to support himself as he gets up. The chain of the collar clanks at the motion. Noé  holds the metre or so of the slack chain dangling from his throat in a white-knuckled grip. The motion of standing leaves his chest cramp, his lungs breathless. Hunger rears its beastly head in his gut.

    “I want to know Lord Ruthven’s secrets,” purrs Vanitas. He doesn’t move from his position from the floor, and doesn’t look the least bit intimidated by Noé. “And why it is that he’s keeping a vampire pet in his basement.”

    Summary

    Vanitas chooses this moment to bite into the eclair, cream oozing out of the other end, flakes of pastry drifting down and settling on the table. He finishes chewing, and a soft, pink tongue darts out from his lips to lick away at a smudge of chocolate on the corner of his mouth.

    Noé’s eyes can’t help but follow the movement intently. He sits there, frozen, and something in his stomach twists hard.

    Vanitas dabs at his mouth with a napkin, his gaze flickering up to meet Noe’s. A slow smirk spreads through his face at what he sees, and he leans back in his seat, flexing his pale neck.

    “See something you like, my dear Noé?”

    In the midst of a Parisian summer, Noé pines.
