Summary
For a year, everything remained unspoken: fleeting encounters, quiet proximity and one single moment that changed everything. Now, a new chapter begins for Lauren Fox and Simon "Ghost" Riley. They still live side by side but what was once mere neighbourliness has shifted into something unnamed – a space charged with silent pull, buried thoughts and tentative closeness. After her exhibition, Lauren finds herself suddenly in the spotlight, while Simon struggles to balance his life as a soldier with the unfamiliar intimacy of home. But closeness has a way of uncovering old patterns and a past that refuses to stay buried.
Two people, divided by a wall, bound by everything that lingers in between.

Summary
✨He was just another uniform in the back of her classroom—stoic, unreadable, unremarkable. Until she smiled at him. Soft, unsure. Sunshine in a human body. And he? He was the shadow, trying not to burn just by standing too close.
Now Lieutenant Riley has a problem. And it smells like vanilla. She’s gentle. Awkward. His daughter’s teacher. His new fixation.
Sweet in a way he never thought he deserved.But now that he’s seen her—really seen her—he wants more. Wants to know what she sounds like when she falls apart.
And she has no idea what happens when a man like him starts to crave something soft.✨

Summary
all of the ghost riley x medic!reader [helen isn't readers name, but a nickname from ghost]
“I never asked, why does he call you Helen?” Soap asks, jutting his head to the man beside him.
The one who has barely moved his mask to eat, even if his tray is full. You feel his knee move, and your eyes flick to him, finding his on his own tray.
“Helen of Troy,” you reply, just above a whisper, head tilting as you watch Soap’s expression. “The face that launched a thousand ships? I know you know first-hand his odd humour, but I think he really believes he’s being funny.”- Words:

But how long can she keep telling herself that as hate and desire walk a dangerous line with one another, especially on the field.

Summary
The devices in his ears were the best the military could get him—expensive, discreet, smart. They helped in crowded shops and city streets. Let him catch parts of sentences if the person stood close and spoke clearly. High-frequency filters, speech enhancement, all of it.
But it was like trying to listen to a symphony through a cracked radio. Tinny. Fuzzy. Off.
And when it was quiet like this—no traffic, no orders, no gunfire to cut through—it felt worse.
He could see your voice. Your lips forming his name.
He wanted to hear it.
Christ, he wanted to hear it.
Or:
Simon gets medically discharged -and despite himself he helps an old lady cross the street. Leading him all the way home to her niece-you.

a man's heart is truly a wretched, wretched thing by kiryoutann

Summary
“No more tears f’me, ye ‘ear?” He meets your eyes before lowering it to the tantalizing view of your glistening body, causing another twitch of his impatient cock. “I ain’t worth it.”
“No—no, don’t say that. You’re—mmh!” You stumble over your words, voice shaking both from emotion and physical overwhelm. “You’re always worth it, Simon.”
Sweet thing, unaware of the effect her puffy eyes and tear-stained cheek have on a man as corrupt as him. Struggling to find words while he fills her up, trying to convince him that he's worth something.
"A man's heart is truly a wretched, wretched thing," as your mother once said. And yet, you, a soulless ballerina, happen to cross paths with a mysterious man under the rainy sky of London. A meeting that binds you to a self-destructive dance in the hope that he loves you as much as you love him.
However, Simon Riley is still Simon Riley; and his rotten heart left no room for someone like you.

Summary
Ghost pulled her out of hell; half-conscious, entirely broken- and carrying scars he's all too familiar with.
CIA contractor Dr. Leah Marshall survived captivity, but that doesn’t mean she’s safe.
Four months after she vanished, she’s back and under the 141’s protection- and neither she nor Ghost knows what to make of the fragile thread pulling between them.
But one thing’s certain: they’ll need each other if they want to survive what’s coming.

Summary
Simon Riley had always been a man in control of himself. He'd mastered his mind, his body, and his temper, all to become the perfect killing machine. Analytic, emotionless, efficient. The perfect soldier. Nothing could ever stop him. Nothing could ever tame him. So why the fuck was the new Lieutenant able to make him lose every ounce of control in his body without trying?
Michaela Duarte swore to the heavens that she wouldn't make the same mistake again. She buried herself in her work, shoving her feelings, her past, into a neat little box nestled deep inside her heart, out of reach, so that no one could hurt her ever again. So she could endure. So she could survive. So why the hell was Lieutenant Riley so good at breaching the walls she'd so carefully put up?
