Summary
Felix never asked to be part of a war. But after a job gone wrong lands him in the hands of Hwang Hyunjin—the cold and calculating king of the Jeongno—he’s left with no good options and too many people who want him dead.
Caught in Hyunjin’s web of threats and power, Felix is dragged into a world of hidden weapons, bloodstained loyalty, and enemies that never fight fair. But survival becomes something else entirely when the man he should hate starts looking at him like he’s already his. What begins as forced proximity spirals into something far more dangerous—trust, longing, and the kind of love that doesn’t ask permission.
They were never meant to love each other, but they did—recklessly, completely, and with enough heat to burn the city to the ground.
aka: One heist, one walking red flag, and Felix’s rapidly declining sense of self-preservation.

Summary
Felix n’a jamais voulu faire partie d’une guerre. Mais après un coup qui tourne mal et le laisse entre les mains de Hwang Hyunjin—le roi froid et calculateur du Jeongno—il se retrouve sans bonnes options et avec bien trop de gens qui veulent sa mort.
Pris dans la toile de menaces et de pouvoir de Hyunjin, Felix est entraîné dans un monde d’armes dissimulées, de loyautés tachées de sang et d’ennemis qui ne respectent jamais les règles. Mais la survie devient tout autre chose quand l’homme qu’il devrait haïr commence à le regarder comme s’il lui appartenait déjà. Ce qui commence comme une proximité forcée dérive rapidement vers quelque chose de bien plus dangereux : la confiance, le désir, et un amour qui ne demande la permission à personne.
Ils n’étaient jamais censés s’aimer. Mais ils l’ont fait—avec imprudence, intensité, et assez de feu pour réduire la ville en cendres.
aka : Un braquage, un drapeau rouge en costume sur mesure, l'auto-préservation de Félix qui décline rapidement.

Summary
He lost everything. She learned never to want anything. Perfect for each other, the Unspeakables said.
Another go at the marriage law, corrupt goverments and political agendasEighteen months after the war, the wizarding world had barely begun to breathe again when Minister Batterspy enacted a marriage decree. A quiet law that reached into every home and rearranged lives without warning.
Bill didn’t care. His world had already ended: his wife gone in childbirth, his future buried with her. What was one more decree to a man who’d lost everything? He was a widower, not a bachelor. The law didn't apply to him.
Or so he thought.
The ministry disagreed. With Bill too weak to make his own decisions, it was up to Arthur and Molly to act in his best interest.Bound by law, circumstance, and the uneasy remnants of a world still recovering, the Bill and his new partner must navigate each other, the Ministry’s tightening grip, and a society cracking under its own weight.
A slow burn of trust, survival, and the fragile work of rebuilding a life in the aftermath of loss.
What difference do choices make, when the system itself is corrupt? -

Summary
Heir Apparent Julian is sent as a hostage to Kaer Morhen for a year to prove the royal family's good faith. No one was naïve, they knew what that meant. Daily servitude, humiliation, and night duties.
"It doesn't matter," his father had said when one of his closest advisors expressed concern about the possible consequences. "Witchers are sterile, they won't make him any bastards. It's only a year and he's still young, he'll still be fertile when he comes back."
Julian, whose secret pen name was Jaskier, was not at all reassured by this.

Summary
Nick, it must be said, had been exemplary in his patience.
He had put up with Judy's parents, who were adorable but truly overwhelming, her numerous brothers and sisters, and all of her more distant family... who were much more openly hostile to foxes.
That is, until someone mentioned the old methods of ensuring that foxes would not hurt anyone.

They shrugged. “Used to. I’m not really sure anymore.”
He hummed thoughtfully, then stuck his hand out. “Well, welcome to the party, Talvo. I have a feeling you’re going to fit right in.”

Summary
“I don’t know if this counts as a purpose,” Steve says, softer now. “It’s not long-term, it’s not—hell, it’s not what I thought I’d be doing with my life. But it’s something. And right now something feels like more than I’ve had in months. If it helps me wake up without wanting to open the window and just—”
He cuts himself off, jaw tight, because saying it out loud feels like giving it too much weight. But the thought hovers there anyway. Falling. Head hitting pavement. Either ending everything, or breaking enough pieces to start over without remembering any of it. Without remembering Billy, or Barb, or Starcourt, or Vecna. Without remembering him.
His hand shakes as he wipes it across his jeans.
“You still…” His breath catches, chest caving in on itself. “You still take up every damn thought I’ve got... I don’t know how to stop missing you.”

Summary
The attack on the convent is a disaster; not only do they lose Leonora and rediscover Manrico, but Ferrando himself is taken hostage to persuade di Luna not to follow them back to Castellor.
Of course, in a camp full of enemy soldiers and with bad blood on all sides, it’s only expected that he should emerge on the other end rather worse for wear, if he emerges at all.
What is not expected is just how much the various players have yet to discover about their own stories, and whether or not a tragedy can really be rewritten. -
