These are little one shot stories that I wanted to do for my student/teacher romances. These stories show what happened to Alice and Malcolm from Queen of Spades, after their story concluded. These stories will also show the continuation of Westley and Maddison's romance and may include short romance stories of their friends and families as well.

A prequel to the rest of the House of Cards Series, this story tells of how the intelligent and good natured boy Malcolm was morphed into Reaper, a gangster that reached boogeyman legend status and whose whispered name would provoke instant fear. When the young Westley, a Cuban uprooted to Spanish soil, starts to idolize Reaper and mould himself in his image, Malcolm's faced with the task of looking his reflection in the mirror and battling the inner demons reflected there.
