Corinium Television, a once-prestigious production company tucked away in the English countryside, is in crisis. To salvage its public image, Tony Baddingham calls in a specialist: Alexandra Thorne: a glacial redhead, divorced from a powerful politician, a single mother, and a ruthless strategist. Reluctantly, she returns to the Cotswolds, surrounded by rumors, former friends, old enemies, and a workplace unsure whether to fear her or admire her. Amid budget cuts, sabotaged costumes, and crumbling scripts, Alexandra must lead the charge to modernize Corinium... and stop Venturer from claiming victory. What she didn't expect? Declan O'Hara: a rugged, serious, mildly infuriating Irish journalist with an inconvenient history of accidental charm. Between dangerous flirtations, whispered exchanges in crowded rooms, behind-the-scenes cold wars, and nights where there's only one bed... what happens when she begins to suspect she may have chosen the wrong side of the story? Too late to run. And Alexandra Thorne has never been one to back down from a fight. Declan O'Hara x OC

➜ "You gonna keep talking," he said, his voice a calm whisper, almost teasing, "or let me kiss you?" In a city carved by violence and loyalty, Evelyn Harrow was never meant to fall for Thomas Shelby. But desire doesn't follow rules. And love was never part of the plan. ────୨ৎ────────୨ৎ────────୨ৎ──── Birmingham, 1919.

Elena Monroe was supposed to be starting nursing school. Eighteen, driven, grieving-but healing. Her father had passed from leukemia a year earlier, and all she wanted was to make him proud. Then the world ended. She and her mother packed up the car with her little sister Ivy, hoping to escape Georgia and reach the safety of Atlanta. But what started as a desperate plan shattered on the roadside-when her mother suffered a heart attack behind the wheel. With no emergency services, no help, and only a few months of first aid training, Elena was forced to make an impossible choice. She buried the woman who raised her and drove away with a shell-shocked eleven-year-old in the passenger seat. Gridlock stopped them just outside the city. Walkers flooded the highway. And Elena-bleeding, exhausted, and breaking-stumbled across a group of strangers: Shane Walsh. Lori and Carl Grimes. Carol, Sophia, and Ed Peletier. They took her in. Protected her. Called her strong. But Elena never felt strong. Just awake when everyone else was still dreaming. The quarry became a fragile safe haven. Ivy found laughter again. Elena found purpose. But in a world where everyone turns after death, she'll soon learn... she's not like the rest. In a world built on death, what happens to the girl who won't rot?

If I tell you to leave me, then damn it, you leave and you don't look back." "Daryl," she sighed softly, shaking her head. "No, I mean it," he argued, encircling her wrist and jostling her a bit, begging her to listen. "I can't lose you. Not like that, not ever." His words were like lava bubbling in his throat, everything he had fought so hard to conceal was quickly rising to the surface. Fuck it. Any fear of rejection was overpowered by his need to make her understand. It wouldn't change how he felt, or the fact that he'd take on a thousand walkers if it kept her safe for even one more millisecond. "I need you around, Ace."

To epitomize the world in which we live, we must first step back and remember that we are flawed. But to understand the world in which we live, we must recognize that man realizes just this: the good exploit the flaws and the wicked jeopardize their existence by playing man against perception and ultimately losing themselves to Fate. "If I have learned anything in this extraordinary existence, it's that only humans have the potential to be utter perfection." ...Gabrielle Baelish is the melody of the birds and tune of the bards, the most beautiful woman to ever live and the most wicked witch to take breath. But "wicked" is a two-edged sword, where she is a traitor to some and savior to others. She is the light that reveals the flaws of all people, the shadow-caster of perfection in every facial crevice. She is the flame that lights the way, the chance of redemption for all forbearers' children... "You and I are the same, Jon Snow: just one step behind perfection and deeply engrossed in sin." //////////////////////////////////////// GAME OF THRONES, SEASONS 1-8 DISCLAIMER: I do not own Game of Thrones or A Song of Ice and Fire.
