    Summary

    Bruce Wayne is no stranger to the spotlight—or the shadows it casts. Reclusive, haunted by tragedy, and heir to a name that carries more weight than comfort, he now faces something far more personal than public scrutiny: a stalker. The letters arrive like clockwork—taunting, obsessive, familiar. And with Halloween approaching—the anniversary of his parents' death—the tension coils tighter.

    Clark Kent is a disciplined, quietly intense MMA-trained security specialist, brought in under General Sam Lane’s orders to keep Bruce safe. He expects a job. He doesn’t expect the gothic cold of Wayne Manor, the brooding silence of its only resident, or the unsettling depth of what Bruce refuses to say out loud.

    But as danger creeps closer, and the mystery surrounding the stalker sharpens, Bruce and Clark are forced into uncomfortable proximity. What begins as resistance slowly becomes something deeper—something fragile and real.

    Summary

    “They are my children. You already know this, but I will fight tooth and nail so that they are not separated against their will. We don’t want to leave but rest assured that we will and no one will ever find us if our peace here is threatened. And if any of them are taken from me…” Bruce turns to look at Clark. “Well. It’s not only me that Gotham has to worry about if that happens.”

    “That’s a threat,” Clark says but it’s not accusatory.

    “Yes.”

    OR

    Clark is sent to evaluate if The Wayne Manor, an orphanage for four magical children, should be shut down. What he finds is that not only is this orphanage an actual home to these children, but that maybe it could be a home to him, too.

    Summary

    “I have this idea. You see, I’m lonely. And I hope you don’t mind me saying, but I think you’re lonely too.” He pauses as if to give Irving some time to agree but he stays silent, so Burt continues.

    “I think you should come over to my house to sleep with me in the same bed.” Burt finishes with a smile, leaving the sentence hanging in the air between them.

    Two lonely people come to an arrangement to help them sleep better. But it's never as simple as that.
