Summary
In the shadows of an impending war, they find solace in secret, desperate encounters—fierce, unrelenting, and entirely devoid of love. Their passion is a rebellion against duty, a way to escape the inevitable. But stolen moments can’t last forever, and as war closes in, so does the brutal truth: this was never meant to be more than a secret. And secrets never stay hidden for long.
I know I don't know you. But I want you so bad. Everyone has a secret. But can they keep it. Oh No they can't.
Setting: Fifth & Sixth Year

Summary
You’re a marketing consultant, constantly traveling the globe and chasing success. Love and passion have always been afterthoughts—until a business trip to Tokyo changes everything.
Reuniting with Hana, your old college friend who now works as an assistant to a mysterious yet charming businessman, seems like a simple catch-up. But when you meet her boss—Akiyama, the irresistibly witty and magnetic head of Sky Finance—your carefully controlled life is thrown into chaos.
What begins as an intense and forbidden romance spirals into a whirlwind of desire, betrayal, and danger as you uncover secrets that threaten both your career and your heart. Tangled connections with Akiyama’s manipulative ex-fiancé, Eri, and the looming shadow of the Yakuza’s criminal underworld force you to confront emotions you’ve long buried.
As forbidden desire consumes you and secrets unravel, your once-steady world spirals into a whirlwind. Akiyama’s charm becomes both your greatest weakness and your strongest temptation, forcing you to confront what you truly want—and what you’re willing to sacrifice. Will you dare to follow your heart into uncharted territory, or will the risks of love prove too dangerous to endure?

He wants Chigurh to see it—the power etched into his body, the possibility of unmaking him, of unraveling principles without a single word.
or

Summary
You've always felt a strange energy coming from your television set - a boxy old CRT you can't afford to replace and feel oddly attached to. It's almost like it's... aware, somehow.
When you discover how to shift between the Light and Dark Worlds, you learn the truth: your beloved, dusty TV is actually Mr "Ant" Tenna - who, as it turns out, has a bit of a thing for you. With this knowledge in hand (and Tenna completely unaware that you know) you decide to have some fun. How worked up can you get him before he finally cracks?
Or: how to tease an inanimate television until its sentient Dark World counterpart finally admits he's been watching (and enjoying) the entire time.
A standalone story & part of my Tenna/Reader series.

Summary
Alone on a Tuesday night after your boyfriend broke up with you via one single text message the night prior? (What an asshole!)
Worry no longer! (And grab your sunscreen, ‘cuz it's gonna get HOT.)
There's an Eldritch entity in your home willing to take care of you the way you deserve.
In other words, the CRT you take off Kris's hands after they knocked on your door one morning asking if you wanted it ends up courting you in the most horror-esque ways possible: channel changes to communicate with you, staticky name whispering when he craves your attention, and shadowy manifestations unbound after an altruistic fluffy goat boy nearly convinced him that “all” Darkners grow “obsolete” eventually. (Hah, what a loon!)
But wait, there's more! (The Lord of Screens is, of course, a man who stops at nothing to get what he wants.)
NOTHING will prevent him from showing his Dark World form in the Light World.
Not even Death himself. (He can SUCK it!)
