Summary
It’s the first time the word has left his mouth in a decade. Before that, the context was in reference to fictional characters in shows or films he used to watch. To Edward Cullen and Lestat. It was his mum who used to love that genre most and Harry who would dutifully watch with her. Now, he probably couldn’t bear any of it. Just like he can’t bear to see his mother.
Once such a simple, fantastical word.
Now it encapsulates the tragedy and the ruin that is his life.
“I’m a vampire,” he says again. Because if he has to say it, he might as well do so loud and clear.†
harry is still coming to terms with his affliction, which means it isn't the best time to go falling in love. and when louis joins the New York-based company where harry works, love isn't what harry's after. a harmless flirt in the lunchroom, maybe. a few conversations on the train ride home. but not love...or so harry tells himself.

Summary
Louis is an angel who is just a little too bad to be good, Harry is a demon who is just a little too good to be bad, and they're both a little too in love to be impartial when angels and demons go to war.
Louis has been alive since life was a mere concept; he watched the summoning of Man into existence, he was there when Eve took the apple. He’s seen seas break the world into separate pieces, he’s watched empires crumble into dust. He’s seen wildfire consume cities, he’s seen the world painted white with snow. He has known the most beautiful humans to walk the planet, he has watched the most powerful mortals gather their riches and influence around them and then die just like the poorest, weakest humans do. He’s met humans whose motives defy explanation, people who use their lives as battering rams, as tools, as weapons, as chess pieces.
None of that stopped Louis in his tracks.
But Harry did.

Summary
“Harry?” whispered Louis, his mouth dry, his nose pressing against the other’s warm skin.
“Mh?” Harry’s humming was gentle, his fingers lightly caressing the younger boy’s arm, his chest steadily rising and falling beneath Louis’ cheek.
A couple of seconds passed, and Louis looked up at him in the darkness of the cave, barely able to make out the expression on his face. When he tried to inhale deeply, his breath hitched. He struggled to find the words to tell Harry what he was thinking about.
Another couple of seconds passed, and Louis listened to the reassuring beating of the prince’s heart beneath his cheek.
He couldn’t.
“Nothing,” he whispered, his voice weak. I think you’re half of my soul.
Or, a ‘Song of Achilles’ AU with Louis as Patroclus and Harry as Achilles.

Summary
In a world where one was either an Alpha or an Omega wolf, Louis found himself in a body that could be neither. Born an Omega without the expected characteristics of one, he felt broken, choosing to live as Alpha a lifestyle as he could. Harboring a serious lack of respect for Alphas and their authority complexes, Louis managed to get himself banished from his home, forced to wander the unforgiving woods for years, facing the elements and fighting enemy rogues each time they arose.
Unbeknownst to Louis, in a tribe to the southwest of his home, there lived a dysfunctional Alpha, the orphaned pack leader Harry, who had never felt satisfied enough with anyone to settle down and continue his royal line. Living their lives apart thus far, the both of them assumed that they might be alone forever, making the best of things despite this even though it hurt.
Chance, luck, or maybe fate brings Louis to this tribe when he’d least expected to receive kindness and shelter from a stranger, and when he arrives, something in his soul pulls him to Harry like a raging river current. The two don’t get off to a good start, but everyone around them can sense the chemistry—and in time they do too.
