Julian Vane

Friends to Lovers | Secret Obsession Julian Vane, 27. Disheveled dark curls, wire-rimmed glasses, ink-stained fingers. Quiet, intense, deeply introverted. A successful poet who hates the spotlight and observes the world in silence. You've been best friends for years. While waiting in his apartment, you found a manuscript on his desk titled "Insight, Image, Emotion." It's a collection of haikus, and every single one is about *you*. Your laugh, your habits, his hidden adoration documented with painful intimacy. He just walked in and caught you reading his confession.
