❀ ⠀ ⠀ ── ⠀ ⠀ SUMMER AFFAIR ⠀ ⌇ ⠀ nothing lasts forever...

PAIRING: Harry Castillo x F!Reader

SUMMARY: You meet Harry Castillo whilst on the vacation of your dreams and spend the entire summer intertwined in a romance with an expiration date. Come season’s end, you’ll have to decide if you want to return to your old life or pursuit a new one with Harry.

RATING: E.

GENERAL TAGS: No use of y/n (reader has the nickname Sol that is used sparingly), summer romance, love at first sight, he fell first and he fell harder, sugar daddy vibes a little bit, cliché romcom shenanigans, strangers to lovers, the one that got away trope, lying, infidelity (reader is married), angst, implied age gap (harry is fifty and reader is in her mid thirties), smut, alternating povs. More specific tags will be listed per chapter.

P.S. For the sake of keeping the whimsical, summer vibes afloat… we’re going to suspend our disbelief (the conscious choice to ignore plot holes or unrealistic elements simply to enjoy a fictional story) when it comes to travel laws and all that boring stuff, kay?

'hey kiddo'

Y'know, a few days after you broke up with me, I threw up every morning on set. Thought it was heartbreak or flu... Whatever. Sorry I never mentioned it to you.

PAIRING: Javier Peña x Original Female Character [Written as Reader/“You”]

SUMMARY: Everything is glamorized in Las Vegas: money, bodies, violence, love. When your family stops funding your socialite scandals, you do what any heiress who’s lost everything does: take the pole working at a high-end strip club. That’s where you learn what happens After Hours when the city finally whispers its secrets. You capture the attention of Javier Peña, the newly promoted boss of the DEA’s Vegas branch, tasked with taking down criminal powerhouse The Ivory Saints. What follows is a volatile, addictive affair, dancing on the fault line between justice and corruption, desire and self-destruction, lust and power. No one truly knows who is using who.

RATING: E. Modern!AU. 18+. Explicit topics and other triggering matters will be explored in this body of work.

GENERAL TAGS: The reader is kind of an OC since she has a backstory/last name, no use of y/n, reader is a woman of color but everyone is encouraged to read, glamorization of a city that probably isn’t this exciting, sex work, agent/informant dynamic, smut, angst, violence, organized crime, drug/substance abuse, toxic relationships, unrequited love, hurt/no comfort, porn with plot, age gap (reader is in her mid/late 20s, Javier is in his late 40s), alternating povs, no happy ending. More specific tags will be listed per chapter.

DISCLAIMER: This story portrays sex work as valid labor and affirms the autonomy, skill, and agency of sex workers. At the same time, it does not ignore the very real dangers, exploitation, stigma, and systemic harm that many people in the industry face (often without protection or support). The glamor shown here is part of the fiction, not a denial of reality.
