I Ended Up with the Twin Brother of My Straight Male Childhood Friend

Xia Yu has a childhood friend named Jiang Xingcheng.

The two are inseparable, closer than glue, and each other's best friends.

But Xia Yu has a secret: he's been secretly in love with Jiang Xingcheng for ten years.

On his birthday, he gathers his courage and confesses.

A look of alarm crosses Jiang Xingcheng's handsome face. "Aren't we best bros?"

·

The fact that Jiang Xingcheng is a homophobic straight man hits Xia Yu hard.

He forces a smile in front of others, then shuts his heart away when he's alone.

But one day, a young man who looks exactly like Jiang Xingcheng appears before him. With refined features and a gentle smile, he says:

"Xiao Yu, I like you. Would you consider giving me a chance?"

·

Xia Yu never knew that Jiang Xingcheng had an identical twin brother, Jiang Zongze, who had been apart from him for years and had a very different personality.

Even less did Xia Yu expect that Jiang Zongze would indulge his every whim, care for him devotedly, and even apply to the same university as him.

With his childhood friend's face, Jiang Zongze is almost too much for Xia Yu to handle.

·

At the graduation party, during a game, Xia Yu draws a challenge to kiss the person beside him on the lips.

He looks awkwardly at Jiang Xingcheng beside him, only for someone to hold his chin and seize his lips in a kiss that is both forceful and tender.

Amid a chorus of screams, Jiang Zongze smiles faintly and pulls the red-faced Xia Yu into his arms. "My boyfriend's a little shy. Don't mind us."

After a brief moment of shock, Jiang Xingcheng smiles and offers his congratulations. "Big bro, Xiao Yu, I wish you both happiness."

But behind his back, Jiang Xingcheng's fist clenches, his knuckles turning white, his heart torn with pain.

So it wasn't that he didn't love him.

He simply couldn't bear to be apart from him.

*The younger brother realizes too late that his beloved has become his sister-in-law

*The older brother is the true love interest, and the newcomer beats the childhood friend

The upcoming novel Bite from My Childhood Friend is listed on my author page. Blurb:

Si Fan is very sensitive to smells. Whenever anyone gets close to him, their scent makes him want to throw up.

Only his childhood friend Tan Mo smells like freshly baked tiramisu. Si Fan breathes him in deeply every day and cuddles up with him to sleep every night.

On Si Fan's eighteenth birthday, his parents tell him a secret:

"Fanfan, you're a vampire, just like your mom and dad. You can live forever."

"When you smell blood you like, you'll feel euphoric, but you can control your urge to drink blood with willpower."

"Even so, you must never reveal your identity. Otherwise, either turn him into one of us or kill him to keep him quiet."

Si Fan gets it: So I've been craving my childhood friend's blood!

"That's so perverted. It'll scare Mo Mo..." Since humans and ghosts belong to different worlds, Si Fan tearfully changes his college application and flees to the north.

On the first day of school, Tan Mo shows up in Si Fan's dorm room with an identical admission letter, his face dark. "Running away from me?"

Si Fan: I think I might be dead QAQ

·

When Tan Mo presses him for an explanation, Si Fan has no idea how to come clean.

Because it really is perverted.

Si Fan: "I... like... you..."

Tan Mo: "I like you too. Let's date."

Si Fan: "Wait, let me finish! I like the smell of your blood!"

Tan Mo: "Why do you think I always leave two buttons undone?"

Si Fan: "...Huh?"

Tan Mo opens his shirt, revealing collarbones that look absolutely delicious, then moves in close. "Turn me into your personal blood bag. I like your little fangs."

Si Fan is so horrified his face twists out of shape. "Ahhh! Mom, there's a pervert!"

·

Si Fan doesn't know that Tan Mo comes from a lineage of elite vampire hunters and has an exceptionally keen sense for vampires.

The moment Tan Mo learned Si Fan's identity, he made his decision: he would offer his blood to Si Fan.

*An innocent vampire bottom (Si Fan) x a scheming hunter top (Tan Mo)

*The bottom thinks he's a pervert, but he's nowhere near as bad as his top

*The top hunts his prey by pretending to be one, using all eight hundred of his clever schemes to coax his boyfriend into biting him

Theme: Keep striving as long as life goes on.
