[BL] DYNAMIC HEARTS: The Doctor and the Basket ball player

#Younger Top #Older bottom In the bright lights and dark streets of Los Angeles, two men from different worlds are about to find the love they never knew they needed. Alejandro "Alex" Ramirez is a 25-year-old rising star for the California Suns basketball team. Tall, strong, and handsome, with warm brown skin and dark curly hair, Alex grew up in the tough neighborhoods of East LA. Basketball saved him from the gangs and danger around him. Now he's living his dream—scoring dunks, hearing fans scream his name, and winning big games. But even with all the fame and money, Alex feels lonely. No one truly understands him, and real love always seems out of reach. Dr. Ethan Hayes is 28 and already one of the best dentists in California. With light blond hair, bright blue eyes, and a kind smile that puts everyone at ease, Ethan owns a successful clinic in downtown LA. Patients love him because he fixes smiles perfectly—whether it's crowns, implants, veneers, or root canals. He works long hours and wins awards, but his personal life is empty. Past relationships didn't work out, and he fills the quiet nights with more work. One dangerous night changes everything. After a Suns game, Alex is heading to his car when a gang shootout erupts in the street. Bullets fly, people scream, and Alex spots a man trapped in his car right in the middle of the chaos—Ethan. Without thinking twice, Alex pulls him out and they speed away in Alex's SUV to safety. Shaken but alive, they park by a quiet beach under the moonlight to calm down. Talking turns into something more. A spark ignites. [Parked by the sea, Alex and Ethan laughed about the close call. "I can't believe we just escaped a shootout," Ethan said. Alex smiled. "Life in LA, man. But you're safe now." They got out and sat on the hood of the car. Stars shone above. Without words, Alex leaned in. Their lips met in a soft kiss. It was electric. Hands explored, hearts raced. Kisses grew deeper, bodies pressed close, and passion took over in the back of the SUV—intense, raw, and unforgettable. "I should go," Ethan said after, breathless. "Thanks for saving me." Alex nodded. "See you around?"] They didn't exchange numbers. It felt like a perfect moment that had to end. Three years pass. Alex becomes a superstar—league MVP, championship rings, and endless highlights with crossover dribbles, three-pointers, and powerful dunks. Ethan's clinic grows even bigger, treating celebrities and winning awards for his expert work. Then fate steps in again. During a tough game, Alex takes a hard elbow to the face and cracks a tooth. The team doctor sends him to the best dentist in town—Dr. Ethan Hayes. When their eyes meet in the exam room, shock turns to joy. Old memories flood back. Coffee after the appointment leads to dinner, then to passionate nights that pick up right where they left off—explicit, loving, and full of heat. This time, they don't let go. Love blooms fast and deep. They share mornings in bed, cheer at games, support each other through busy days, and build something real. But danger isn't finished with them... Alex's old life comes knocking—gang... taking notes

"A Rejected Omega, A Dark Alpha Prince and their twisted dangerous fate." Amelie Conley, the eldest daughter of a revered Alpha family, was once expected to carry on her family’s proud legacy. However, when she turned sixteen, she failed to awaken her wolf, which made her earn the scornful title—the Curse of the Conley Family. At eighteen, she found her destined mate and carried his child, believing she had finally been given a chance at happiness. But when she rushed to share the news, she found him in a compromising position with her younger sister, Flora. Betrayal cut deeper than any wound, but the final blow came when he rejected her without hesitation, declaring Flora as his true mate. Shunned and heartbroken, Amelie made the painful decision to leave her pack for the sake of her unborn child. But just as she tried to escape, she was ambushed—hunted down like prey. Desperate to protect herself and the life growing inside her, Amelie fled to save herself and her unborn child, only to collapse into the arms of an enigmatic stranger—Gabriel Sinclair. Gabriel was no ordinary man. He was the Alpha Prince, a name feared across the nation. For twelve long years, he had scoured the lands for his mate, only to find nothing. He had convinced himself that the Moon Goddess despised him, just as his own mother had. But the moment he laid eyes on Amelie, everything changed. "You were marked, weren't you?" His voice dropped, edged with something dangerously close to possession as his gaze met hers, demanding the truth.  The question left Amelie in a dilemma. She didn't wish to tell him the truth. "I am not an ordinary wolf, Amelie. Who the fuck marked you before me?" Gabriel voiced in a possessive yet intimidating tone.  Amelie didn’t know that the man, who saved her was none other than the infamous Dark Tyrant—the Alpha Prince, Gabriel Sinclair, whose intentions were still unknown to her. ~~~~ **The Story is a pure fiction.

The Trident's Obsession: Claimed By Three

[Warning: R18+ Content] I thought I was going to die. So I chose to be remembered. One night. One drink. One sin I could never take back. But the men I met at the bar weren’t strangers. They were The Trident… three ruthless heirs of the Corvanni Dynasty, the most feared mafia bloodline alive. Draven. Silent, merciless, a predator cloaked in shadows. Lucian. Calculative, hauntingly beautiful, a devil with a silver tongue. And Azriel. Wild, reckless, dangerously addictive. They don’t ask. They take. And now they want me… completely. Their obsession burns hotter than their empire. Their touch is forbidden, but I can’t resist. Because the deeper I fall, the clearer it becomes… I’m not just their desire. I’m their ruin. Excerpt ********** “Run if you want, Jade.” The nickname rolled off Lucian’s tongue like a promise and a threat, one no one had ever dared call me before. My breath hitched, legs trembling, but before I could take a step, Draven’s hand closed around my wrist… iron, unyielding. “You think you can walk away after tasting us?” His voice was quiet, deadly, sending shivers straight to my core. Azriel leaned in from behind, his lips brushing the shell of my ear as his laughter burned through me. “Sweetheart, we don’t chase what’s already ours. And you, little Jade…” his teeth grazed my skin, “…you belong to the Trident now.” Azriel’s fingers tilted my chin up, his grin sinful, dangerous, carved just for me. “Tell me, Jade,” he purred, voice thick with lust, “what do you want?” Heat scorched my skin, my lips parting, but no words came. My body betrayed me, trembling against the wall of Draven’s chest while Lucian’s hand traced lazy circles on my thigh, teasing, tormenting. Azriel’s laugh was low, filthy. “No, sweetheart. Don’t just tremble for us. Say it.” His thumb brushed my lower lip, slow, taunting. “Say what you want. Say you want our hands, our mouths, our cocks… say it, and I’ll give you everything.” Draven’s breath was at my neck, steady, lethal. “Careful,” he murmured, “once you speak it aloud, there’s no going back.” Lucian’s whisper slid against my ear, silken poison. “And when you do, Jade, you’ll never remember what it felt like to be untouched.” My mouth opened before my brain could reason… “I want you,” I whispered. Draven’s hand tightened, Lucian’s eyes darkened, Azriel laughed as if the world had finally given him his prize. Three bodies pressed in, heat and danger wrapping me like a cage I couldn’t escape. Didn’t want to escape. My heart screamed to run, but my body whispered the truth. I wanted them… All of them. ********** Three men. One woman. A love story carved in blood and obsession.

The Billionaire's Secret Baby

She sold her body to save her mother’s life. She never expected the man she gave it to… would be her new boss. Or the father of her child. Isabella Howells had her future mapped out—until everything shattered in one day. Her mother was dying, her fiancé had stolen everything, and with nowhere left to turn, Isabella made a desperate decision that would haunt her forever. Five years later, she’s a single mother craving a fresh start in a quiet town. When she lands a dream job as executive assistant at StoneTech Solutions, it feels like fate is finally on her side—until she walks into her new boss’s office and comes face to face with Jake Stones, the man she thought she’d never see again. The one-night stand. The man who swore he couldn't have children but was somehow the father of her son, Timothy. Would she be able to do her job without thinking about the past? What happens when Jake Stones is bent on making Isabella his, unaware of his secret baby with her? Will she accept him? What happens when Jake's brother's schemes puts Timothy's life in danger and Isabella is forced to reveal the truth about Timothy's paternity? Will Jake accept this truth? Or will it break him and everything he'd ever come to know about Isabella Howells? Let's find out in this story of love, lies, betrayal, and a second chance that could cost everything. ******Excerpt****** Jake leaned back slowly, eyes narrowing, studying her with new intensity. "Tell me, Miss Howells," he said carefully, "have we met before?" Bella's heart lurched, panic flashing through her veins. Did he recognize her? It couldn't be. If he did, he wouldn't have asked her that. Besides, she had a reason to recognize his face, but him? He didn't have a reason to. She concluded. She forced herself to laugh lightly, shaking her head. "No, sir. I don't think so. I'd certainly remember if we had." Her words came out smoothly, but inside she was crumbling. Of course, I remember you, Jake. How could I not? You're the man who lied. The man who changed the course of her life with just one lie. Jake tilted his head, unconvinced. The denial in her voice didn't match the flicker in her eyes, or the way her hands gripped the edge of the chair just a little too tightly. She recognized him, too but was obviously lying to him. He nodded, deciding not to press further. Not yet. "Strange," he murmured, leaning back in his chair, a faint smile ghosting his lips. "I could've sworn you looked familiar." Bella kept her eyes lowered, pretending to be busy with the folder he slid across the desk. Jake let the silence stretch, his gaze never leaving her. Inside, his thoughts churned. She was lying — he was sure of it. That mole, those eyes, that voice… There was no mistaking her. She could hide behind her polished clothes and calm tone, but he knew. She was the one who had refused his help and had wanted to pay for whatever money he gave her. And if she thought she could walk into his world again and pretend otherwise, she was wrong.
