Before Thomas Shelby became the king of Birmingham, there was Elsie Hayes - the girl three doors down who carried grief like an old friend and stitched her life back together in quiet, stubborn ways. Their love wasn't built on promises or grand gestures - it was forged through blood, smoke, and the brutal certainty that neither of them would ever belong to anyone else. From the muddy streets of Small Heath to the soft hush of the Hayes house, they built something rare: a life stitched together out of everything the world tried to tear apart. Even when death came, even when the war never truly ended, one truth remained, Elsie was his only peace, and Thomas was her only home. "You were my only peace."

Birmingham, 1919. The city is a battleground for power and survival, ruled by men who thrive in shadows and women who outwit them. Among them is Rosemary King, known as The Whisperer, a sharp-tongued, resourceful informant who trades secrets in exchange for survival. But her quiet life shatters when Thomas Shelby, leader of the notorious Peaky Blinders, pulls her into his dangerous orbit. As Rosemary navigates the Shelby family's bloody rise to power, she finds herself entwined with Thomas-a man as ruthless as he is magnetic. Together, they face shifting alliances, deadly enemies, and the scars of war that haunt them both. With every whisper shared and promise made, their bond deepens, but trust is a perilous game in a world where betrayal lurks at every turn. In this gritty tale of ambition, survival, and forbidden connection, can Rosemary and Thomas find solace in each other, or will the secrets they keep destroy them both?

| A Thomas Shelby Fanfic | The boy who leant against his desk with an expensive cegar hung from his mouth, wasn't a boy anymore, but a man. Not even a man. More a ghost of a man, blinded by the horrors of war. A true monster created by such madness. The boy she once knew, was now a distant memory. Or a complete fantasy that she had frabricated with her own mind. Thomas Shelby was gone. The war had taken him from her, and she hated God for it.

Eleanor Hargraves was born to the fire of Parliament-a daughter of the Labour Party, raised in the echo of speeches and the shadow of revolution. Her father fights with words. Eleanor, with silence, steel, and a silk dress as red as her bloodline. When she crosses paths with Tommy Shelby-gangster, MP, and war-scarred king of Birmingham-their worlds collide with the force of history itself. He is danger in a three-piece suit; she is loyalty wrapped in defiance. Together, they dance on the fault lines of power, passion, and betrayal. As fascism rises and Britain teeters, Eleanor must choose: her father's cause, her country's soul, or the man who makes her feel like the war never ended-and never will. Love is never simple. Not when the nation is watching. And not when your kiss might start a revolution.
