Band Contest

Dummy number one barges into my life like he owns the damn place, acting like the world owes him a damn trophy. Dummy number two? Oh, he's got me on speed dial and follows me like I'm some rare Pokémon he just has to catch. Meanwhile, I'm stuck playing referee in their never-ending "who's more annoying" contest. Senior year was supposed to be chill, but instead, I got front row seats to this circus. Honestly? Please leave me alone unless you wanna fight!

Avery Asteria was far from having anyone's dream job. Family circumstances had him drop out of school and flying around the expanse of space looking for treasure among the discarded trash in an old ship his father had been restoring. It was far from glamorous work, but it was all he could do to earn the money he needed. He was not the only one looking for fortune among the stars, though. One day a score that looked too good to be true led to a run in with a band of pirates. With some quick wits and a bit of luck, Avery managed to escape the worst, but he ended up missing out on collecting the valuable salvage he had his sights on. Having lost a large chunk of his gear in his flight from the pirates, Avery seemed to be truly at the end of his rope. However, a twist of fate led him to discovering an experimental vessel that had been lost to the far reaches of space. With this new ship in his possession, his prospects were looking up. It had everything and more than what any spacefarer could want. And Avery was going to use it to become the leader of the greatest band of mercenaries in the galaxy.

Z was a deadly assassin, feared in the underworld. On what was supposed to be a routine mission with his best friend, he was betrayed and killed. But death wasn't the end. He woke up in a new body—that of Axel, a delicate, fame-showered member of a popular boy band. And to make matters worse, Axel was what most would call a twink. Just when Z thought things couldn’t get stranger, he discovered that the leader of the boy band, Jayvaughn, was none other than the infamous soldier even the most ruthless criminals feared. Z tried to keep his distance, planning to quietly live out this bizarre new life. But there was one problem: Axel’s overwhelming feelings for Jayvaughn. Every time Z tried to ignore him, the emotional pull nearly knocked his soul out of alignment. Jayvaughn had never paid Axel much attention—until now. After Axel’s sudden personality shift, Jayvaughn found himself curious… then intrigued… then dangerously close to falling. Now Z finds himself caught between surviving in this new life and resisting the pull toward the one man he’s supposed to avoid at all costs.
