Cora and Finnick have always shared the sea, their mornings, their silences-and now, a secret no one can know but their closest friends. By the time the Quarter Quell arrives, their bond has grown into something deeper, something they must hide from the Capitol itself. Thrown together in the arena, where every choice carries a deadly cost, they must rely on each other to survive. But survival is only part of the challenge-protecting what they've found in each other may be even harder. Because in a world built on fear, even love can be dangerous.

"It causes your immune system to turn against you," I explained gently. The color terrifyingly drained from his face as he stared at his knuckles. "I have a spot," he whispered, his voice scraping like glass. "Right here." He let out a strangled noise as the stadium footage buffered. "Riley!" he shrieked, covering his burning face while peering through his fingers at his future self. "Those pants leave absolutely nothing to the imagination!" He went so unnaturally still I thought his heart had stopped beating. His charcoal-stained fingers curled into tight fists. "Fifty," he whispered, scanning the fatal summary on the glowing screen. "I am... I am gone at fifty." What if the only way to save your future was to completely abandon your past? In 1982, Michael Jackson is suffocating. Trapped behind his family's compound gates and drowning under industry pressure, the rising star just wants a life of peace and normalcy. The universe answers-violently ripping him from his timeline and dropping him onto the bedroom rug of Riley, a freelance graphic designer in the year 2025. Stranded forty-three years in the future, Michael must face a world that already knows his tragic history. But Riley fiercely refuses to let that history repeat. She offers him the anonymous, ordinary life he always craved, rebuilding his shattered confidence brick by brick and teaching him the radical concept of self-love. More importantly, she arms him with the ultimate weapon: the brutal truth. She gives him the exact names of the snakes hiding in his 1982 backyard, the upcoming betrayals, and the devastating tragedies he is destined to face. When the universe inevitably pulls him back, Michael is no longer the timid pop star terrified of his shadow. He is a king preparing to claim his throne, knowing exactly how to rewrite music history and what it takes to survive. But armed with the future, changing his fate might cost him the one person who taught him how to live.

"Don't you know to run from predators, sweetheart?" he murmured. "They like the chase." Daphne Sage Baird had never believed her sister would return from the Hunger Games alive. No one was more grateful to be proven wrong. Lucy Gray's survival felt like a miracle, a mercy the world rarely offered. But miracles draw attention.

He craved the hummingbird named Daphne Sage. Unlike her sister, Daphne had nowhere to run. No woods to vanish into. No willow to hollow herself inside. Lucy Gray would dissolve into mystery, Daphne Sage would be etched into history. Coriolanus Snow X fem OC

When snowflakes blanket the forest in a silent veil, memories lie buried beneath the frost, and wounded hearts search for the warmth of a new spring. In the stillness of a deep winter, a young fawn begins to grow... and a doe with a hidden past finds her way back to the light. This is where a story of unexpected bonds, legacy, and renewal begins. This is where The Winter of Neva begins. Only the character of Neva belongs to me. The rest of the rights belong to Disney.

**WORK IN PROGRESS ** "Oh, God" I whimpered, choking back a sob. He pulled on my hair so that my back arched and I felt his cool, shaky breath at my neck. "There's no 'god' here, love...just me." He whispered into my ear. *** Desperately trying to escape her past, Cora fled her home country to hide and take what was supposed to be an "easy" job taking care of a doll named Brahms in a mansion for a a few weeks.

As a young boy, Kylo Ren trained with his uncle Luke Skywalker as a padawan. Years before his betrayal, he witnesses his uncle have a vision of a young girl, particularly strong with the force, who bears a mark that will enable him to know her when he finds her. Long after the massacre of his fellow padawans, Kylo continues to search for her even in the midst of controlling the First Order. Serela has grown up her entire life on the lush, wild planet of Takodana. Kept unaware of so much from the outside world, she has no idea how powerful she is with the force, or what lengths Kylo Ren will go to in order to find her and harness her powers. Both are ignorant of the prophecy which bonds both of their fates together inextricably and that the fate of the galaxy hinges upon the two of them. He hopes to find her and change her to his side, the question is, who will change who?

You're the only female TIE fighter pilot in the First Order. You had natural ability. An...instinct...in the cockpit that you couldn't explain. Sometimes you just felt when and where a target was approaching. You'd had this instinct as long as you could remember. Anytime you sat behind the controls you felt it. You couldn't explain it, and it definitely pissed the guys off. You had to work twice as hard as the men in the squadron to earn the same amount of trust and respect from your superiors. You had worked far too hard for your position. You weren't about to throw it all away for some- And then you met him. Kylo Ren, Commander of the First Order. A special assignment brings you face to face with a man who would not only uproot your career but your entire existence. ***Mature for heavy Smut and Violence.
