Hidden beneath masks and glamours too intricate to unravel, the Sterling Nightingale's self bestowed mission is to smuggle prisoners out of the Capitol to District 13, much to President Snow's fury. He hunts the spy endlessly, only to be continuously outwitted. The reason? He is not looking in the right places. Silver Lamprey Cornelius is not your standard Victor, after all. Finnick has always seen Sil as a brainless fop with nothing but air floating around in her head. For a fellow Victor, she certainly doesn't act the part. He's never given her the time of day, until his fate gets entwined with hers and their President seems to think that it would be a good idea to change all of that. Almost overnight, Finnick and Sil go from being complete strangers to being wildly in love. Of course Finnick doesn't actually love her. He could never fall for an idiot like her... ...until he does, and suddenly he realizes that Silver Lamprey Cornelius is not the woman he always saw her as. She is so much more. Fate is a strange mistress, and it seems that he is about to be swept up in its storm. Finnick/OC pairing. Scarlet Pimpernel inspired.

Kai grinned. "Very mafia of you. I'm weirdly kind of into it." *** When Valerie Williams discovers that her long-term boyfriend is sleeping with her best friend, she devises a revenge plot to get back at them both. But when she asks bad boy Kai Delaney to pretend to date her, she never thought her heart would be on the line. *** Self-proclaimed pessimist Valerie Williams is definitely your glass-half-empty kind of girl. However, Valerie is surprisingly optimistic when her (ex) boyfriend cheats on her with her (also ex) best friend. Valerie doesn't believe in holding grudges; she believes in getting even. Which doesn't seem easy, until her boyfriend's least favourite person and her best friend's long-standing crush, the sarcastic, cocky and popular bad boy extraordinaire Kai Delaney crashes, quite literally, into her life. When Kai accidentally hits her car with what is practically a monster truck, and can barely afford to cover it, Valerie has an idea. If Kai agrees to pretend to date her, for long enough to make her boyfriend and best friend regret their actions, Valerie will give him the duration of their scam to pull together the money to pay her back. Revenge is a dish best served fake. [150,000-200,000 words]
