But tomorrow, I’m finally being deployed. All I have to do is survive one more night under the same roof without giving myself away. Piece of cake, right? At least, until he gets hurt. And just like that, my protective instincts kick in, pushing all the lines I’ve tried so hard not to cross.  \nOne night. That's all I have to get through. But the closer I get, the harder it is to resist the pull toward the one person I can never have.

My son was here, riding that  \ndeath trap of his I hated. He killed the engine, lowered the kickstand, and swung his leg over to dismount. With a swift tug of his glove, he pulled off the leather shield. Then came off his helmet. He ran his fingers through his black, sweat-dampened hair, a wild grin lighting up his face.  \nDamn, I can’t believe he’s already twenty-four. Where did the time go?  \nIt was easy to think I’d wasted twenty-four years of my life. I’d made nothing of myself. I had the same old job as a janitor at a high school. I lived in the same small two-bedroom house, and if not for practicality, I would have been driving the same car as well.  \nBut I’d never once thought of my life as a waste. How could I with a son like Drake?  \nAnd he was going on his second deployment. Though he no longer lived home and spent most of his time on base, at least I knew he was safe and well on American soil. My stomach had been in knots throughout his first nine months in Kuwait. I should have been more accustomed to the idea now, but I didn’t feel any better about this assignment in Syria. The feast I had prepared was both to keep my mind occupied and to give him a proper send-off.  \nThe front door opened.“Pop?”  \nSmiling, I went over to the stove and turned down the flames under the saucepan.“I’m in the kitchen.”  \nFootsteps echoed down the hallway, growing louder as Drake appeared in the doorway, looking like Adonis with his incredible six-foot-five-inch height and broad shoulders. We were nothing alike. He had dark hair, brown eyes, and a muscular body, whereas I was blond and blue-eyed. I couldn’t put on a single pound beyond one hundred and forty, no matter how hard I tried. And at five feet five, I had to crane my neck to look up at him.  \nPeople made fun of me all the time when they found out he was my son. When he’d first come out as gay, I’d go with him to gay bars and events to understand as much as I could, but then his friends kept calling me his Daddy, which made both of us uncomfortable, so I stopped. Well, I was his daddy, but not the way they meant. A shudder ran through me, and I froze.  \nFunnily enough, his coming out helped me to understand that I wasn’t as straight as I always thought.  \nDrake grinned, surrounded by the scent of motor oil and leather.“Oh god, that smells good.” He inhaled deeply as he opened the fridge.  \nI chuckled.“Of course it does. Your old man may not be good at much, but he’s a pretty damn good cook.”  \n“You ain’t lying.” He took out a bottle of water and gul","cbCaieQhRxvb3RlP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieQhRxvb3RlP","pdf",1050152,116,"English","en",105,"# Contents\n## Blurb\n## Episode 1\n## EPILOGUE\n## Also By Gianni X\n## About Gianni","[{\"question\":\"What is the central setup of War Within?\",\"answer\":\"Adrian plans his son Drake’s send-off for a new deployment, hoping distance will ease forbidden feelings he cannot stop thinking about.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Adrian try to cope before Drake deploys?\",\"answer\":\"He keeps busy preparing dinner and dinner-related routines while focusing on survival for one night under the same roof without revealing himself.\"},{\"question\":\"What warnings are included for the story’s themes?\",\"answer\":\"The text includes warnings about depictions of PTSD, physical injury during deployment, and loss of brothers in arms.\"}]","War Within - Gianni X | PDF",1785661495,179,{"code":4,"msg":30,"data":31},"ok",{"site_id":23,"language":22,"slug":32,"title":13,"keywords":33,"description":14,"schema_data":34,"social_meta":85,"head_meta":87,"extra_data":89,"updated_unix":27},"war-within-gianni-x","",{"@graph":35,"@context":84},[36,53,67],{"@type":37,"itemListElement":38},"BreadcrumbList",[39,43,47,50],{"item":40,"name":41,"@type":42,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":44,"name":45,"@type":42,"position":46},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":48,"name":12,"@type":42,"position":49},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/",3,{"item":51,"name":13,"@type":42,"position":52},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/war-within-gianni-x/116654/",4,{"url":51,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":22,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":61,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":62,"interactionStatistic":63},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":40,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-08-02",true,{"@type":64,"interactionType":65,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":66},"ViewAction",{"@type":68,"mainEntity":69},"FAQPage",[70,76,80],{"name":71,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":73},"What is the central setup of War Within?","Question",{"text":74,"@type":75},"Adrian plans his son Drake’s send-off for a new deployment, hoping distance will ease forbidden feelings he cannot stop thinking about.","Answer",{"name":77,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":78},"How does Adrian try to cope before Drake deploys?",{"text":79,"@type":75},"He keeps busy preparing dinner and dinner-related routines while focusing on survival for one night under the same roof without revealing himself.",{"name":81,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":82},"What warnings are included for the story’s themes?",{"text":83,"@type":75},"The text includes warnings about depictions of PTSD, physical injury during deployment, and loss of brothers in arms.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":51,"og:type":86,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":88,"canonical":51},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":23},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":91},[92,95,99,103,108,113,118,123,128,131,135],{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},90,"story-novel",{"id":46,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":52,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":100,"show_sort_weight":101,"slug":102},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":104,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":109,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":110,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":114,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":121,"slug":122},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":124,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":125,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":127},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":130},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":133,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":134},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":136,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":137,"show_sort_weight":104,"slug":138},19,"General","general"]
