Father’s Day is the perfect time to show your love and appreciation for the most important man in your life. Personalized jewelry, like a personalized dad bracelet or a custom father's day ring, makes for a truly special gift. Whether it’s a bracelet for Father's Day,  or something that commemorates a meaningful moment, personalized pieces elevate your gift to a whole new level. Here’s a guide to personalized Father's Day jewelry, including bracelets and rings, and why they are an ideal choice for the occasion.

Whether you opt for a minimalist design or something more intricate, a personalized dad bracelet can be tailored to reflect his personality.

There’s something special about wearing a bracelet that tells a story, and for a father, it could symbolize family bonds or cherished memories. If you want to make it even more personal, consider adding charms such as a father daughter charm bracelet to create a truly unique piece of jewelry.

Styles of Personalized Dad Bracelets

Leather Bracelets – A stylish, casual option perfect for dads who enjoy a laid-back look.

No matter the style, adding a personal engraving or charm will make this gift one he’ll treasure forever.

The Significance of a Personalized Father's Day Ring

A Father’s Day ring is a striking and meaningful gift that he can wear every day.

Present - Pierre Gasly

Words: 681 Summary: Pierre has some thoughts about her buying herself a necklace.

Masterlist | Support Me!

She claps her hands together as she looks at her phone. The device perfectly angled to capture her, the kitchen counter where an unopened box was, and Pierre who was lounging on the couch answering some emails.

“So, in honor of hitting two hundred and fifty thousand followers and my birthday happening in a few weeks, I decided to get myself a present.” Her eyes are alight with excitement and she bounces a bit, fingers itching to open the box. Meanwhile, Pierre’s head jerks up, eyes wide as he stares at his girlfriend.

“I was a little nervous about getting this.” She starts to say as her fingers open the box. “But y’know it’s like a combined gift for myself and I’ve been really good at not touching my savings for the past few months, so I didn’t feel too bad about dipping in.”

Pierre makes a strangled sound.

Lifting her present out of the box, she presents it to the camera before opening the box. “Isn't it gorgeous?” She moves it a bit closer before continuing to talk.

“This from Cartier, it’s the Galanterie de Cartier necklace, which is nearly thirty thousand dollars and this is only my second time seeing it in person and I’m just even more in love with it. I’ve been looking at this necklace for a few years now and while I love my pink Les Berlingots de Cartier necklace.” As she says it, she gestures to the necklace she’s currently wearing. “It was time to give it a nice little sibling in the Cartier family.”

“Mon bébé,” Pierre starts, finally able to speak. “You didn’t actually buy that did you?”

She turns to face him with a confused look. “Yeah, I did.”

“With your money?”

“Yeah, with my money.”

He covers his face for a second. “Baby, I leave my card for you all the time to get things for yourself. You should have used my card, it's what it’s meant for.”

“I didn’t need to, it was a gift for myself.”

“Your gift for yourself, is something I’m supposed to pay for.” He argues, nearly pouting. “I was also going to buy that for you for your birthday. I was planning on going to the store tomorrow.”

Her face softens at his admission. While her buying it had been a present to herself, she also knew it would rile her boyfriend up and she didn’t often share things like this with her fans as they were more there for her talking about books, but she had thought it’d be a fun little thing to film, to let his and her fans see.

“You knew I wanted this?”

“Of course, I do. You’ve shown me pictures before and talked about it. I know you also like the 1895 necklace that Cartier does, but not just any 1895 necklace, only the one from that collection. You want that birthstone bracelet from Tiffany’s and a large collection of collectors edition books when we finally have a house and you can have your own library and reading place. I know everything you want.”

Her heart melts at his words. Pierre was sweeter than most people gave him credit for and he often showed that side of himself to her, but she had no idea how much he paid attention to things she wanted.

“C’mere.” She murmurs, setting her necklace on the counter, arms outstretched.

He easily swings his body over the back of the couch and grabs at her hips as soon as she’s in arms reach before kissing her.

“Is this close enough for you?” He asks when they break away to breathe.

Her teeth find her bottom lip as she shakes her head slowly. “I think you can get closer.”

Pierre smirks at the response, capturing her lips in another kiss as he moves one of his legs between hers. “How about you stop recording for tiktok and we record something else?”

A laugh leaves her at his words, but she’s already reaching for her phone. “Only if I get to be on top.”

“Deal.”

You entered my sinful life, just don’t leave

warning: female reader, soft Aventurine, Aventurine is called Kakavasha, fluff, kissing, mention of Topaz, slightly suggestive at the end. bad english

P.s I wrote this fanfic before the official art from Hoyo appeared, after that I left it in drafts, since too many stories about this started to appear. Anyway, this is just a cute story before this wonderful man's banner comes out :D

My requests are open!

Aventurine was in no hurry to open his eyes when he woke up. He continued to lie on the large bed, wrapped in soft sheets and enjoying the rays of the sun warming his pale skin.

Out of habit, his right hand ran along the now empty side of the bed. He shivered slightly because of the cold, as if this place had been empty for a long time. Aventurine frowned and gripped the sheets tightly, suddenly a wave of doubt washed over the young man. Was this a dream? However, he calmed down when he heard quiet footsteps approaching the place where he lay.

He tried to hide the smile that threatened to appear on his face when a warm palm touched his cheek. Thin fingers first ran along the skin at the base of the hair, removing yellow strands from the face, then slowly went down along the cheekbone, nose, eyelids, lips…

"I know you're awake, Kakavasha."

A soft voice brought Aventurine out of his sleepy state. Disappointment quickly gave way to a feeling of warmth in my soul. He liked it so much when you called him by his real name, it made him understand that in this terrible unfair world there is a person who cares about him.

Aventurine covered your hand with his own, not allowing you to remove it, and smiled maliciously.

"I wonder how I gave myself away?"

The quiet laugh that left your mouth blessed the player's ears. You adjusted Aventurine's shirt on your body. In his house, this is practically your only clothing, even if you have a lot of your own things here, considering that you often spend the night with him. But by the way the blond stares at you, especially after a shower, you can understand that he loves it when you do this.

"The smile on your whole face gave you away. Shouldn't a poker player be able to not show emotions?"

Aventurine chuckled cheerfully. As a person who intrigues with his incomprehensible behavior, he really cannot control himself around his lover.

“It’s hard not to smile knowing that I got this treasure.”

Aventurine ran his hand over your collarbone, a slight shiver running through your body as his cold fingers touched your soft skin. His long fingers rested on a necklace of aventurine, his birthstone. This is exactly what he gave you in the third year of friendship, it’s surprising that you kept it for so long.

"You're making me blush again. Better get up before I call Topaz."

It was funny to see how Aventurine's face turned sour at the mention of Topaz. Unfortunately, your threats were not a bluff. Angry Topaz is not the most pleasant company, especially in the morning. The blond threw his head back on the pillow and sighed offendedly.

"Okay, okay. I'll get up, but only after the kiss."

You sighed in annoyance and lightly hit his bare chest. It's so hard to say no to those puppy dog ​​eyes.

"Just one kiss."

You ignored the blonde's happy sigh and began to slowly lean towards his face. Your soft lips touched him and Aventurine could not stop the satisfied smile spreading across his face.

He gently cupped your cheek with his palm to deepen the kiss, and you couldn’t help but let out a soft moan, Aventurine pouring all the love and passion even into such innocent kisses. You pulled away from his lips. A quiet chuckle escaped your lips as the player reached for your lips with a pitiful moan.

"Satisfied?"

"Mmm no."

Suddenly, Aventurine grabbed you by the waist and threw you onto the soft sheets. With a loud squeal, your head landed on the soft pillow, Aventurine's strong arms pinning your arms to the sides of your head, preventing you from escaping. A smug smirk appeared on his face at the sight of your red face.

"K-Kakavasha, you're a liar, I can't believe I fell for it again."

Aventurina laughed quietly and brought his face closer to yours, without looking away from your beautiful eyes.

“And you will fall into this trap more than once, sweetie. We both know that you cannot refuse me.”

His left hand moved closer to your face to brush away stray strands. Your heart beat loudly against your chest; not everyone can see his gentle expression on his face. This showed the trust that Kakavasha had in you.

You chuckled and completely relaxed your body.

"I don't think anything will happen if we're a couple of hours late."

Breathe in the Quiet

Day 24: Predator / Prey | Azriel x Reader word count: 2.2k author’s note: ok ok listen, there’s no sex in this I KNOW I KNOW IM SORRY BUT i’ve decided that day 28 (dont check what it is yet, it'll spoil this one) is going to be the part 2 to this >:) just gotta wait 4 days guys i believe in yall here’s part 2, Breathe Out Your Sorrows!! be sure to read the content warnings :) ✦ . Kinktober Masterlist . ✦

You had always loved the bustling energy of the Velaris market, especially at dusk when the faelight streetlamps flickered to life, casting a warm glow over the vendors and shoppers. But tonight felt different. The vibrant chatter and laughter faded into a dull roar, the sounds swirling around you as an unsettling chill crept into your bones.

You paused at a stall, your fingers brushing over a delicate necklace adorned with your birthstone—a shimmering gem that seemed to glow in the fading light. The small pendant caught the light, casting tiny glimmers across your palm as you held it up for a closer look. But just as the stone’s beauty caught your eye, a prickling sensation crept up the back of your neck, making your grip falter. You glanced around, trying to shake off the sensation, telling yourself it was just the lingering echoes of the day’s excitement. Yet, the weight of someone’s gaze pressed heavily on you.

As you stepped away from the stall, the crowd began to thin. The familiar stalls and vibrant colors dimmed as shadows stretched longer across the cobblestones. A sense of dread washed over you, an instinctive knowledge that you were no longer alone. You quickened your pace, weaving through the remaining shoppers, but the feeling only grew stronger.

The lanterns flickered ominously, and just as you turned down a side street, darkness enveloped you. The sound of laughter faded, replaced by an eerie silence. Your heart thudded in your chest, pounding a frantic rhythm as you realized you had wandered too far from the main thoroughfare. The shadows loomed around you, and you felt the familiar suffocating sense of being watched return.

“Isn’t this a lovely little spot?” a voice purred from the depths of the darkness, low and smooth. The chill in your spine twisted into something sharper, more primal.

“Who’s there?” you managed to ask, your voice barely above a whisper. Panic clawed at your throat.

A figure stepped into the faint light of a nearby streetlamp, tall and imposing. Azriel. The High Lord’s Shadowsinger. His dark silhouette was framed by the glow of faelight, making him appear almost otherworldly. Yet, the predatory gleam in his eyes was all too real, and your heart raced in response.

“I can smell your fear.” His voice slid through the air like silk, intoxicating yet terrifying. “It’s so sweet.”

Your stomach churned as you took a step back, the alley behind you closing in like a trap. The oppressive darkness seemed to pulse around, thickening as if it were alive, wrapping around your limbs and stealing your breath. “What do you want?” you stammered, eyes darting around for an escape, but the shadows seemed to thicken, pressing against you from all sides, a dark blanket that suffocated any hope of flight. Azriel moved closer, gliding through the darkness with an unsettling grace. His presence was overwhelming, commanding the space around him, and your heart raced in response. 

“I want you,” he said, his voice low and sultry, dripping with something sinister. He paused, allowing the words to hang in the air, watching your reaction, savoring the fear flickering in your eyes like a flame. 

“Why?” you whispered, the question escaping your lips before you could stop yourself. 

His dangerous smile widened, revealing a hint of sharp teeth, and he leaned in closer, invading your personal space. “Why?” he echoed, amusement dancing in his tone. “Ah, sweet girl, that’s the best part.” He straightened, wings unfurling behind him like shadows come to life, their edges almost whispering against the air, as if they were sentient—alive and waiting. He straightened, circling you slowly. His presence was overwhelming, every step deliberate, calculated. You could feel him just behind you, his breath ghosting over your neck.

“I could tell you, but where’s the fun in that?” he teased, his voice a silken whisper that sent shivers racing down your spine. He leaned against the wall, his shadow stretching toward you. “I prefer to play a little first. To bring to your attention just how painfully vulnerable you are.”

Your pulse quickened as he loomed over you, his gaze predatory, calculating. “Do you feel it? The way the darkness wraps around you? It’s thick, isn’t it? Like it’s trying to protect you… or consume you.” He stepped closer again, tilting his head as if he were studying a particularly interesting specimen. “You can’t hide from it. Not from me.”

With a flick of his wrist, shadows seemed to swirl around him, coiling like serpents in the dim light. His smile turned wicked as he continued, “I can sense your heartbeat, quickening with every passing second. It’s...intoxicating.” He paused, his eyes narrowing as he leaned in even closer, his breath ghosting against your ear. “Tell me, how does it feel to know you’re at my mercy? To know that with a single command, I could make you quiver in fear?”

“Get away from me!” The words tumbled out, laced with defiance, but the tremor in your voice betrayed you.

He chuckled softly, the sound low and rich, echoing off the alley walls like a sinister melody. “Oh, angel,” he breathed, amusement dancing in his gaze, “you really don’t understand, do you? You can’t run from me, and you certainly can’t hide.”

“And yet,” he said, straightening and taking a step back to assess you like a fine painting. “I can feel that spark of hope within you, the want to escape.” His smile was feline, and he relished the way you shivered in response. “But hope can be cruel, can’t it?”

And just when you thought you had a moment to gather yourself, he stepped back into the shadows, disappearing from view. Your heart raced, and instinct kicked in; you turned to flee, but before you could take a single step, he was back, mere inches away, his hand snapping over your mouth, silencing the scream that hadn’t yet escaped your throat as he pulled you back against him. 

“Shh, shh. Didn’t I tell you?” he murmured against your ear, his voice a seductive whisper that curled around your mind, tightening like a noose. “You can’t run from me. Not unless I allow it.”

The shadows pooled at your feet, dark and hungry. “But you should—run. Drop your basket and run like your life depends on it. Don’t look back.”

With those words, he released you, and every instinct screamed at you to obey. You dropped your wicker basket and took off, sprinting toward the mouth of the alley, where the streetlamps flickered warmly. The bustling sounds of the market faded back in as you raced forward, heart pounding, legs pumping beneath you. 

Just before you reached the end of the alleyway, you couldn’t resist the urge to look back. And what you saw made your blood run cold.

Azriel stood there, half-male, half-shadow, his silhouette merging with the shadows, his figure shifting as if he were made of darkness itself. The dim, flickering light illuminated his face in sporadic bursts, revealing features that were both haunting and otherworldly. His eyes glowed with a feral intensity, deep and hollow, like endless voids that promised unspeakable horrors. A twisted smile curled on his lips; he reveled in your fear. The shadows danced around him, stretching and curling, giving him the appearance of a creature from your darkest nightmares. 

With every breath you took, the air grew colder. He tilted his head slightly, and in that moment, his features sharpened, the angles of his face becoming more pronounced—a perfect blend of angelic allure and demonic presence.

You tore your gaze away and ran, pushing yourself forward into the well-lit streets, desperately seeking the safety of the crowd. The world blurred around you as you focused on staying near the light, where you could see the faces of strangers, where you felt the faintest semblance of safety.

But then his voice floated through the shadows, whispering in that seductive tone that made your skin prickle. “Didn’t I tell you not to look back? What you saw wasn’t pleasant, was it?”

Goosebumps littered your skin, the fear curling tightly within you. Despite the terror coursing through your veins, you couldn’t deny the spark of something else, something deeper. He was beautiful in a way that made your heart race, and his voice, rich and dark, sent a wave of heat through you. 

You pressed on, struggling to drown out his words, but they lingered like a haunting melody, echoing in your mind. “You’re scared,” he called, the sound slithering through the air like a caress. “But isn’t it exhilarating? The thrill of the chase?”

“Sick bastard,” you cried, your voice strained with panic as you tore through the bustling market.

A few heads turned, people glancing at you with bewilderment, unable to hear the shadowy whispers that haunted your steps. They couldn’t see the danger lurking in the darkness, that which stalked just out of sight. You gritted your teeth, fighting the shiver wanting to run down your spine. The thrill of fear coursed through you, but you refused to give him the satisfaction of a reaction. Desperation propelled your legs as you pushed through the crowd, seeking solace in the sea of strangers.

“Deliciously terrified,” he continued, his words lingering like smoke in the air. “It makes you all the more enticing. You’re practically begging me to catch you.”

You shook your head, trying to block him out, but the chill in his tone pierced through the chaos of the market. “Sick!” you yelled again, louder this time, hoping it would drown out his mocking laughter.

“Do you really think they can help you?” he taunted, the shadows around you pulsing with his presence. “They can’t see me, can’t even hear me. I won’t let them. You’re alone in this, angel. Just imagine what I could do if you let me catch you.”

Your heart pumped hard in your chest, but you pushed yourself faster yet, weaving between the stalls and throngs of shoppers. The crowd felt like a false barrier, flimsy against the darkness that stalked you.

“Such a pretty little thing,” he crooned, his voice a sultry whisper that wrapped around you like a shadowy embrace. “I could have you trembling in my arms, begging for release. Just imagine how beautiful you’d look, completely at my mercy, your body pressed against mine as I take my time with you. You’d fit perfectly against me, wouldn’t you?”

Your skin crawled at his words, but the instinct to flee surged within you. “You’re a freak!” you panted, your voice filled with defiance, but the quiver betrayed your fear.

“Am I?” he purred, amusement drenching his tone. “I’m simply drawn to what I desire. The way your heart races, the scent of your fear—it's intoxicating. Just picture it, my hands tracing every curve of your body, exploring every inch, holding you tightly as you gasp and writhe beneath me. Wouldn’t that be exhilarating?”

You pressed on, pushing through the mass of market-goers, desperately trying to block him out. “Get away from me!” you gasped out, but it felt like a hollow plea against the weight of his presence.

“Soon, I’ll catch you,” he continued, his voice a dark lullaby, wrapping around your mind like tendrils of smoke. “And when I do, I’ll take you somewhere hidden, far away. Somewhere only I know about. No one will ever find you there, my little angel. You’ll be mine, completely—locked away, safe from the world, where I can indulge in every wicked fantasy I have. Just think of the pleasures I could give you in private, the things I could teach you when you surrender to me.”

Your heart raced, terror mixing with an involuntary thrill. “Keep running,” he urged, the threat laced with seduction. “But know this—every step you take only makes me want you more. When I finally catch you, you’ll understand how thrilling the chase can be and how sweet your submission will taste.”

You stumbled into an alleyway that branched off the main street, a shadowy passageway that led nowhere. You skidded to a halt, your breath catching in your throat as reality hit. The alley was a dead end, the walls looming around you like a trap closing in. The darkness felt alive, pulsating with the weight of your fear.

Heart pounding, you turned back toward the market, desperate to return to the safety of the light. You didn’t see him standing at the entrance, but his shadows wrapped around the alley like a noose. But before you could take a single step, a chilling presence enveloped you.

“Found you,” he whispered, his voice dripping with delight as he appeared from the shadows. In one swift motion, he seized you, fingers wrapping around your wrist like iron shackles, pulling you close until his breath ghosted against your ear. Your heart raced, caught between terror and undeniable thrill as his tongue traced the shell of your ear.

The shadows thickened around you, twisting and coiling like living tendrils, and you felt the ground ripped from under your feet. Everything else faded into nothingness, leaving only him—his grip firm and unyielding as he pulled you deeper into the dark.
