Summary
It bothered Ilya, he was used to attention from everyone, male female or other, everyone loved him, his face, his body. Ilya thrived like a flower in the sun, the gentle affection from everyone feeding him, recharging him, making him feel whole. But Ilya never got that from Shane, the cold exterior of Hollander cutting him like a knife when he dared get too close, the face never breaking in front of him no matter how charming Ilya tried to be. Never faltering, always a picture perfect photo of the enemies they were made out to be.
Facing each other on a reality TV show Shane and Ilyas biggest challenge won't be winning, it will be each other.

Summary
Shane did a lot of falling, falling into broken pieces like ceramics smashed against concrete, like glass thrown against a wall during an argument, like bones hitting centre ice. But this is the one he knew would kill him. Would take what he had managed to get back, stop the progress he had made, bring the static back and the voices in his head. So he hid. Put himself back in his room, locked the boxes marked Ilya back away in his brain. Took himself away and let the voices take over again. Knew that breaking his own heart was the easier option.

Summary
Not everybody is born with a soulmate. A promise of eternal love, spanning time and dimensions. Some people find their own love, their own choice of who they wish to spend their lives with. Those that don’t get one are free, free to choose, free to not spend years searching until they find the other half of their soul.
Ben Mitchell was born with a soulmate, here he meets 5 Callum Highways that weren’t his and the 1 that was.

Summary
Ilya couldn’t sleep thinking about the familiar burn of the warm closeness, and how he craved it again. The burn was comfort, security. It’d made him pick up his phone and text without concern for embarrassment anymore, even if Shane was right—he’d just had it a few hours ago. But he wanted more, craved it now.
I’m outside, Shane’s text reads. Ilya smiles to himself.

Summary
Smell is an interesting thing, as far as senses go. He learned in undergrad anatomy that it’s actually responsible in part for encoding memory, and it’s a powerful trigger for it. Alex has experienced this plenty of times; his mother’s perfume reminding him of their years in Texas, his father’s cigars. This time, with the smell of this room, Alex is hit square in the chest with the memory of short blonde strands of hair sliding between his fingers, a perfect mouth opening against his own, a smooth accent curving a dulcet voice that whispers into his ear. Alex is spinning suddenly, as though he’s in midair and falling, and the nostalgic feeling in his chest is replaced with something far more intense and less pleasant. Alex steps backwards suddenly out of the room and slams the door shut, his breath shuddering and fast, and he rakes his hands through his dark curls as he storms off down the hallway.
Alexander Claremont-Diaz returns to the White House the first day of his presidency, intent on carving a new future for America and laying the ghosts of the previous administration to rest. He stumbles on a ghost of his own, one that's never quite stopped haunting him since the summer of his mother's second campaign.

Summary
Alex blinks, swoop of eyelashes like a butterfly wing. "Dude, you live on an enchanted island that you try to avoid leaving and a council sends random guys every few months to see if one of them is worthy of being chosen to stay with you. Which they never are. You’re pretty, blonde, blue eyed, and you have a cute magical animal friend. How are you not seeing this?”
Or: Henry has spent a huge amount of time trying to protect his magical island, his magical best friend and his magical (slightly broken) heart, which doesn’t leave much time for other distractions. Until, Alex.
