"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that. He's my best friend, and h-he's in love with his perfect Lily-flower," Elsie sighed as tears began forming in her eyes. "But, Elsie... you don't see the way he looks at you, he-," his sentence was cut off by the girl with tears running down her face. "I don't see how he looks at me, but I see how he looks at her! And, t-that's enough to know that I will n-never be good enough to be with h-him," she snapped through stifled words. "But why don't you just tell him? Why don't you let yourself have a chance at happiness for once?" he asked stepping forwards, wiping her cheeks with his thumbs. "Because...loving him is a losing game. Either way, I'm the one getting hurt," Elsie whispered, falling into the arms of the boy in front of her.

Book 1: Nepenthe Book 2: Halcyon For those that survived the war and carried on, happiness was waiting for them just around the corner, they simply had to find it. For James Potter, it took a wrong turn to end him in the right place where he met Renata Abate, a witch who was searching for her purpose in life. It was Harry who initially brought their paths to cross, but there was something else that kept the paths intertwined. Renata didn't only help to heal James, but he helped to heal her as well as some of the brightest smiles in the world hold the darkest pasts. Soon it became two imperfect people refusing to give up on each other and from that blossomed the start of a beautiful family and the wonderful memories that they would share in, for years to come.

(Sequel to Les Misérables) Since abandoning the foundations of Toujours Pur, Éponine Rosier has never felt so free. Her parents have disowned her, her former friends act like she doesn't exist, and her ex-boyfriend, well, she's fairly certain he's a Death Eater these days. And yet, nothing has stopped Éponine from becoming an unstoppable force to be reckon with. With the help of Sirius Black, her self-appointed guardian, and his friends, Éponine is prepared to face her final year at Hogwarts. From timid little prefect to confident Head Girl, she will do whatever it takes to assist fighting the darkness that not only plagues her own House but the entire wizarding world itself. When she is finally approached about joining the Order of the Phoenix, only one thing leaves her to hesitate : She's pretty sure she's still in love with Regulus Black. Can she save Regulus from his fatal fate or will darkness consume them all?

With the exception of Mirabella Plunkett in the 1800s, the idea of merfolk and wizarding kind mingling together was unheard of, and otherwise, considered to be taboo. Born to a mermaid and wizard, Nixie Dover is believed to be the first of her kind, half-landish, half-seavish. The morning of her birth, things go awry when her mother is suddenly taken away and forced into exile by seavish matriarchy, leaving her to be raised by her father alone on land. For the next eleven years, Nixie is raised as a witch, however, life is far from simple. For as long as she can remember, the waters outside of her home call to her. Her father seems drawn to the waves as well, staring at them every morning as if he is waiting for someone. However, the answers start to unravel when her mother reappears and reveals herself to be a mermaid. Suddenly, the stares and whispers that Nixie has heard throughout her childhood make sense. She is a half-breed, stuck between two worlds where she feels like an outsider. To add to the chaos, Nixie receives her acceptance letter to none other than Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Determined to blend in and hopefully make some friends, Nixie attempts to hide her lineage, but she can only hide who she really is for so long. Especially when a boy by the name of Sirius Black seems so utterly determined to be part of her world. Initially, Nixie believes him to be nothing but trouble, but as time progresses, he proves to be much more than a troublemaker. Together, they must face the hardships of growing up, fighting for what they believe in, and hopefully, surviving a war. [Book 1 of Nixie Dover] [Companion book to Tightly Knit] [Cover by cendriia]

They say blood is thicker than water. But they don't tell you its the blood of the covenant and the water of the womb. Lavinia Selwyn is everything her parents ever wanted in a daughter. And she's never tried to be anything else. She's a poster-girl pureblood Slytherin who is in all the right crowds and making all the right friends from the moment she sets foot on the train to Hogwarts. She's top in her class and the envy of every girl at Hogwarts. But as pressure from her parents mounts, the disgusted stares of the other houses and the constant insults of the Marauders start to get to Lavinia and her perfect facade begins to crack. Before she knows it, she's struggling to function, practically screaming for help and no one seems to notice. Well. No one who would want to help her anyway. Sirius Black is the last person Lavinia would go to for help.

Sirius snaps, barking out irritably, "Because shes a creature that turns men into blithering fools." Her voice is even when she asks, "Speaking from personal experience, Black?" ********************************************************* Gwenyth Whitlock knew what being a Veela was like at Hogwarts, but now that she looked like one she was wholly unprepared. The only person more shocked by her appearance was Sirius Black. The Marauders had spent years trying to successfully prank the Ravenclaw girl, but when she comes back to school transformed and Sirius finally gets a reaction out of her, he finds his priorities shifting. ~In which Gwen and Sirius decide that perhaps they do have somethings in common~ #1 Remus Lupin 3/23/2021 #1 Hogwarts 3/26/2021 #1 Marauders 3/30/2021 #1 James Potter 3/30/2021 #1 Dumbledore 3/31/2021 #1 Harry Potter 4/3/2021 #1 Sirius Black 4/6/2021 {{This is my second ever story-and it's a long one!!

TW: drugs, physical abuse, torture Book Two (Frigus) is out now! Some people are just born to fight. It's not that they're born brave. It's not that they're born strong. It's just that the universe has decided that this one, this one will have grit and fire and steel in their blood. They'll face trial after trial, be broken and damaged in countless ways. But they were born to fight. Maybe it's not the life they would've chosen. Maybe they'd love to lay down their arms. But they were born to fight. It's what they know. It's what they do. It's all they can do. *** Nephera Winchester and Sirius Black have always hated each other.
