Summary
When his world crumbles around him, left with nothing but ashes and memories in his hands, John 'Soap' MacTavish is thrust to the head of his deceased father's criminal empire, far too early. The mourning alpha finds himself faced with more challenges than he'd anticipated, left with connections and messes he now needs to navigate with no guiding hand.
In what has to be a cruel joke, Soap is left with a gift from his father, stating that his first challenge as head of the MacTavish pack will be arriving within the day.
And that's when Soap, already gutted, is strung up by his heels to bleed.

Simon 'Ghost' Riley has always been a mutt - an attack dog meant to serve and obey. His life has been nothing but pain and humiliation. Just when the beaten down alpha thinks it can't get any worse, as a prisoner of his family's debts, he's proven wrong, yet again.
Purchased like a head of cattle, he's traded from one gang to the next, with no say in the matter.
Now a prisoner to another mob, Ghost prepares for the worst, body wounded, but spirit still fighting.

Summary
Freshly discharged due to an injury, John finds himself thrust into the mundane before he's ready. A quaint little neighborhood with people surprisingly eager to welcome him in.
That is, aside from one. Simon—a man he nicknames Ghost—who is far too protective over his neighbors for his own good.
With the aid of a gaggle of lovely old ladies, John and Simon manage to overcome their initial reservations, and give each other a reluctant second chance.

John "Soap" MacTavish is the lone survivor of Task Force 141. He never expected to find his lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley again after being separated years ago in the thick of battle.

Summary
A forbidden love, started so innocent, but fanned to a blaze that can't be contained.
Neither the peaks of the waves, nor the depths of the oceans can keep them apart.
Lulled by a siren's song, too strong to resist, both human and merfolk tangle in its net, unable to break its hold.
A Soap/Ghost mer AU, following ex-military-turned-diver!Ghost and aquarium bound, mer!Soap. Contains an obscene amount of fluff, and eventual smut.

Like Moths to the Flame (König/Ghost/Soap) by CedarDove
Fandom Call of Duty (Video Games)
24 Oct 2023
Summary
It's an attraction, undeniable and terrifying.
A pull to the pyre, deadly but warm, welcoming those willing to take the plunge, if only to drown in the flames.
An obsession, unable to be broken, driven by instinct and the promise of the fulfillment of one's deepest desires.
They find themselves flitting through these shadows between the light, tethered by an invisible chain that keeps them entwined, like moths mindlessly drawn to the flame.
A collection of König/Ghost/Soap fics and art set in the 'Gnawing on Brittle Bones' universe. Any works after the main fic can be read in any order. The companion fics can be read without any previous knowledge of GBB, with any pertinent information given if needed, but certain references and interactions will make more sense if read from the beginning.

Summary
“Simon?”
Simon slides a book into place before turning around. The man in front of him is lean, worn thin, with bags like dusky thumbprints beneath his eyes. He’s swallowed by the massive black hoodie he’s wearing, his hands wedged deep into his pockets and his shoulders hunched.
For reasons he cannot begin to understand, Simon wants to crush this man into a tiny ball and then shove him into the mouth that gapes, screaming, around his own starved heart.
He doesn’t do that, obviously. He’s on the clock.
Or: Ghost loses his memories and falls in love with his husband, again.

Summary
Ghost arches a critical, amused brow just to watch MacTavish scowl. “Well, there’s your problem, sir. Maybe if you stopped fuckin’ women half your size you’d be gettin’ somewhere past the halfway mark.”
“And you’re suggestin’ what — that I find some girl and stick my prick up her arse?”
“It has to be a woman?”
MacTavish stares at him, struck silent. Ghost inches his knees apart and tries and fails to keep the smirk off his lips when his captain’s eyes drop. He watches as MacTavish’s throat bobs, swallowing heavily before he rasps, “I’m not gay, Riley.”
Ghost nods easily. He doesn’t spit the word, at least, doesn’t cringe away at the mere suggestion. Just a statement: he’s not gay, so he hasn’t considered asking a man. “‘S alright,” he grins, lilts his tone into something blithe and oblivious as he bends his knee, frames the bulge in his leggings just so — “More for me, I suppose.”
