BLOODCAPE

Pelumi_David
“Heroes killed my parents. Now I wear the mask of one. Until I can bury them all.” At seven years old, Hernan Vale watched his parents — two powerful heroes — brutally executed in their own home by the very people they trusted most: the legendary super-team known as the Zodiac 13. They thought he was dead. They made sure the world blamed villains. They covered their tracks. But Hernan survived — and never forgot. Ten years later, under a false name, Hernan enters the prestigious Hero Academy, hailed as a prodigy. To the world, he’s a rising star. To his classmates, he’s charming, calm, unstoppable. But inside? He’s a weapon. Waiting. Smiling. Counting names. As he trains to become a licensed hero, fights real villains, and rises through the ranks, Hernan plays the long game — earning the trust of the Zodiac, learning their routines, studying their weaknesses. One by one, he’ll bring them down. And this time, he won’t hide in the closet. But the deeper he goes, the more blood he spills — the more he wonders if he’s becoming worse than the monsters he’s hunting. And when love, loyalty, and lies collide, Hernan may have to decide: Will he save the world like they think he will... or finish burning it down?

Outlawed Desires: Beyond the Chains

Asher Carter has spent his entire life hiding his true self. In Eldermire—a town ruled by the iron grip of the Council of Purity—being different is dangerous, and some kinds of love are a crime that can cost you everything. Orphaned young and raised under the council’s suffocating laws, Asher has learned that survival means keeping his head down. By day, he works as a waiter at The Gilded Spoon, an elite café where the town’s powerful gather. By night, he dreams of a life where he doesn’t have to pretend. Then there’s Malcolm Hayes—the mayor’s son. Wealthy, charming, and engaged to the daughter of a high-ranking council member, he is everything Asher can never have. To the world, Malcolm is the perfect heir to Eldermire’s legacy of purity. But beneath the polished facade, he's living a life that isn't truly his—while being irresistibly drawn to the quiet waiter he just can't stop thinking about. One moment, they were just two men living separate lives. The next, they are fugitives. Hunted by a town that sees their love as an abomination, Asher and Malcolm’s only hope is to escape beyond Eldermire’s borders—to a place where love isn’t punished. But running won’t be easy. In a world where their love is forbidden and betrayal is inevitable, the question isn’t just whether they can escape—but whether their love is strong enough to survive. --- Trigger Warning: This story explores dark and intense themes.
