Alcide Lancaster

“The day that I was exiled from Texas and threatened with death if I dared return was when I knew that I would have to build my life from the ground up. But I never once imagined that my summer internship at Couture would lead me to a legacy like none other!

In “The Guardian of Couture…”

Francis Thompson

I originally thought that the kid was over his head when he applied for the internship. I wanted him to stay blind to the world of fashion, media, and superheroes. But what was meant to be came to be as Ellen knew that his legacy was meant to be fulfilled.

In five days, the story hits the runway of Wattpad.

Emilia Saunders

Don’t think that I’m just a pretty face from England. As Ellen’s right-hand woman, it’s my turn to keep Couture running smoothly and also teach newcomers the same. And it’s also my duty to keep Alcide informed of the tasks that his late grandparents performed when they were Guardians…just like he will be.

You’ll never forget the first time! “The Guardian of Couture” hits the runways on Friday, available EXCLUSIVELY on Wattpad! Don’t miss it!

“The Guardian of Couture” Teaser Promo, Part One

Couture Magazine isn’t just a fashion bible — it’s a battleground. Behind the glossy covers and celebrity spreads lies a world where interns are tested beyond coffee runs and copy machines. From clogged toilets to 24/7 on-call chaos, survival means shedding illusions and stepping into the fire.

But the real test? The Primal Premiere. That’s when the staff — those impossibly beautiful, retro-glasses-wearing editors — reveal their true selves. And if you’re not ready for what’s underneath, you’re not ready for Couture.

I should know. I lived it.

My name is Alcide Lancaster. I survived the summer internship that changed everything — spandex, secrets, Fashion Week madness, and the September Issue. I uncovered a legacy my grandparents once protected, one my family rejected. But I embraced it, with allies, love, and legends by my side.

This is my story.

You’ll never forget the first time.
Exclusively on Wattpad, hitting the runway May 2026. Don’t miss it!

Heated Rivalry's success may reignite LGBTQ+ publishing

EN:
I have begun publishing an alternative vision of the legend of Emperor Hadrian and Antinous - reimagined as queer asexual science-fantasy set among galactic empires, starflight, and mysticism.
This story is filled with deep emotional intimacy, gentle tenderness, tactile gestures, and quiet passion. It explores love that defies laws and conventions, yet does so without conventional eroticism.
One of the protagonists is biologically nonbinary, forced to live under the appearance of a young man, navigating both identity and desire in a society that cannot recognize their true self.
Through gestures, glances, and whispered signs, they share connection, devotion, and grief — weaving a story of tragedy and resilient affection across the stars.

RU:
Я начал публикацию иного взгляда на легенду об Императоре Адриане и Антиное - переосмысленную как квир-асексуальную научно-фантастическую историю во вселенной галактических империй, космических перелётов и мистики.
Эта история полна глубокой эмоциональной близости, нежности, тактильных жестов и тихой страсти. Любовь здесь противостоит законам и условностям, но без традиционной эротической окраски.
Один из персонажей биологически является небинарной персоной, вынужденной жить под личиной юноши, исследуя собственную идентичность и чувства в обществе, которое не способно признать его истинное «я».
Сквозь жесты, взгляды и шёпот они проносят привязанность, преданность и горечь, переплетая историю трагедии и стойкой любви среди звёзд.
