Right Here, Before Anything Else

Snow gathers on their shoulders, on their hair, on the quiet between breaths. The city keeps moving behind them — lights, rails, bells, destinations — but none of it matters yet.

Arms circle, foreheads rest together, and the cold fades into something manageable. Familiar. Held at bay by warmth that isn’t loud, but certain.

No rush to board. No need to look back.

Just this pause in the middle of the world, where they choose each other again — without witnesses, without promises spoken out loud.

Soft MM. Winter closeness. Love that waits because it knows it’s already chosen.

Still, With You

🎄✨

They don’t speak. They don’t need to. Foreheads touch, breath slows, and the world settles into the quiet rhythm they’ve learned together.

The fire crackles softly behind them, lights blur into warmth, and the night presses gently against the windows — held at a distance by blankets, arms, and trust. One hand rests over the other, not claiming, not asking. Just staying.

This isn’t about desire. It’s about safety. About knowing you can lean in and be met every time.

Soft MM. Winter intimacy. Love that chooses stillness and means it.

Steps That Already Know the Way

Snow falls softly, as if it’s learned to slow itself for them. Their hands fit together without thought — warm, familiar, certain.

They don’t rush. They don’t need to.

The house behind them glows like a promise that doesn’t demand anything yet. For now, there’s only this path, shared footsteps, quiet smiles exchanged mid-sentence, as if the words matter less than the fact they’re walking together at all.

This isn’t a grand declaration. It’s something better.

It’s choosing the same direction — again — and letting the night hold the rest.

Soft MM. Winter calm. Love that walks, not runs.

Hold On — I’ve Got You

Snow blurs the edges of the world, laughter cuts straight through it. Cold bites at their gloves, their boots, the night itself — but none of it reaches them.

One leans back without thinking. The other wraps around him just as naturally.

No hesitation. No balance checks. Just trust — and speed — and joy.

Behind them, the house glows warm and patient, as if it knows they’ll come back eventually. For now, this is enough: breathless laughter, snow in their hair, arms tight around a shared moment that doesn’t need to last forever to matter.

Soft MM. Winter joy. The kind of love that laughs while the world rushes past.

Where Magic Feels Like Home

Laughter comes easily here — soft, unguarded, shared. They sit close, sleeves brushing, shoulders warm, surrounded by small lives that trust them completely.

No rituals of power. No grand spells.

Just a pot gently simmering with light, curious creatures leaning in, and two people who make space for wonder without needing to name it.

Magic isn’t loud in this moment. It hums quietly between smiles, in careful hands, in the way everything living feels safe enough to stay.

Soft MM. Found family. Warmth before the world asks anything of them.

The Man I Dreamed Of [Chapter 1-11]

Enjoy 😌

Wrapped in plaid and soft light, they lean into each other as if the world has already slowed to match their breathing. No urgency. No need to prove anything. Just closeness — chosen, trusted, returned to.

Between them, a small fox curls comfortably, its eyes glowing with a quiet, otherworldly warmth. Not a symbol. Not a spell. Simply part of their shared stillness.

This is not a moment of passion. It’s a moment of belonging.

Two lives that have found their way back to each other — again — choosing peace, warmth, and presence over everything else.

Soft MM. Slow burn. Love that rests instead of rushes.

A Moment That Feels Like Home

Sometimes love doesn’t look dramatic. Sometimes it looks like laughter you didn’t plan, a hand over the face because you’re overwhelmed, and someone beside you who knows you well enough to laugh with you, not at you.

No crowns. No declarations. Just warmth, closeness, and a quiet sense of home.

Soft moments matter. They’re where everything real begins.

Midnight Over the City

Under the lights of Los Angeles, high above the downtown skyline, a new year begins. Not with loud promises or grand resolutions — just with two people who know exactly where they belong.

Alex and Aidan lean toward each other, champagne glasses catching the glow of midnight fireworks, the city breathing and alive around them. The world is noisy, restless — and yet, in this moment, everything narrows down to the quiet certainty between them.

2026 is not a number. It’s a shared space. A future chosen together.

Reborn for Hades soft MM • slow burn • devotion over distanc

2026 — A Toast in the Underworld

The year turns not in silence, but in company. A crowded inn, warm light on old wood, raised cups and unfamiliar faces — horns, wings, fangs, leaves, shadows — all gathered without fear.

Lucien and Aidan stand at the center, not above, not apart. Just present. Just here.

This is how 2026 begins in the Underworld: not with conquest, not with fire, but with shared tables, shared laughter, and a moment of fragile peace between beings who were never meant to celebrate together.

For one night, the world holds its breath — and chooses to drink to another year.

The Quiet Between Years

No fireworks yet. No midnight kiss demanded by tradition.

Just a hand over a heartbeat, warm light, and the kind of closeness that doesn’t need words. The room is still dressed in Christmas, but the moment already belongs to what comes next.

This is the pause between endings and beginnings — where promises aren’t spoken aloud, because they’re already understood.

Sometimes the most powerful New Year’s moment is the one that happens before the clock strikes twelve.

December 31 — Waiting for Midnight

The last night of the year, wrapped in warmth and quiet joy. Golden lights, falling snow, a sparkler burning down to its final glow — and the feeling that whatever comes next, we’re stepping into it together.

No countdown rush. No fireworks yet. Just closeness, shared breath, and the calm certainty of us at the edge of a new year.

Sometimes New Year’s Eve isn’t about the noise. It’s about who you’re standing next to when the clock reaches midnight.

❄️ Between stops, only us

In the quiet space between destinations, the world softens. Snow on the windows. Warm light overhead. Two hands finding each other without thinking.

This is what the story is really about. Not crowns or power — but the pull that keeps drawing him forward, toward the man he loves.

A soft MM slow burn where closeness is everything, and even the longest journey feels bearable as long as they’re moving toward each other.

🚆 Chapter 10 is live on AO3

The train is no longer just moving — it’s carrying him toward the man he loves.

Ultimatums. Protocol. Power. Alex refuses intermediaries, refuses bargains — because he is not here for politics. He is here to reach the king himself. Not as a subject. Not as a threat. But as someone who needs him.

A soft MM slow burn where love cuts through protocol, and devotion is strong enough to stop a train and challenge a palace.
