Every morning, Serenity shows up to the office before anyone else - including Ezra Langford, her infamously cold, calculating, and annoyingly attractive boss. She brings him coffee, not because he asks, but because she wants to - always with a handwritten quote on the cup, something cheesy, optimistic, and completely not his style. Or so she thinks. Because while Ezra never says thank you, never even cracks a smile... he's kept every single cup lid with her notes. Hidden in the bottom drawer of his desk, they're the only bright spot in his otherwise grayscale life. But when Serenity's warmth starts to get under his skin - and into his heart - he'll have to decide if he's brave enough to step out of hiding and tell her the truth: She's not just his coffee girl. She's the only reason he still believes in good things. »»-------¤-------«« "So, uh... any regrets on the merger yet?" "Only that Chase ordered shrimp from that place on 8th again." I laugh, too hard and too quickly. "You didn't like it?" "It tastes like regret." I grin. "That's what he said about your budgeting spreadsheet." Ezra's mouth twitches. Not a smile, not really. But close. I should say something professional. Something normal. Instead- "Do you really read them?" I ask softly. He looks up. "The quotes," I clarify, nervous now. "Do you actually read them, or... just collect them?" His eyes hold mine. There's no teasing in them. No cold, hard CEO mask. "I read them," he says. »»-------¤-------«« Word Count: 26, 074

One lesson I learned very early in life was to be cheerful, to be agreeable, to do as I was told and ask for nothing, and to never ever complain. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and maybe they'll love you. I grew into an adult who took care of others and never expected that those I loved would take care of me in return. I gave and never asked, never expected, never demanded. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't make trouble and you'll find someone that will love you. And then one day, a Dragon walked into my workplace and turned my world upside down with a single wink. Having grown up watching his father treat his men like they were disposable, just meat bags to be fed into the grinder, Dragon was determined to be different when he became president of the Dragon's Inferno MC. He cares about his people. He takes care of them. He was upfront with me, taking care of his MC and those he considered to be his would always be his priority. And I agreed to that, I joined him in that mission, throwing myself into becoming the perfect old lady of the prez. Smile Maddie. Act happy Maddie. Take care of them and maybe they'll love you. Smile Maddie. Be happy Maddie. Don't complain and maybe he'll love you. I told myself I was independent. I was strong. And I didn't need my Dragon to take care of me. And I almost believed it. Almost. But now I'm watching him with her. I'm watching him comfort her. I'm watching him listen to her, support her, reassure her. I'm watching him take time from his day to check in with her. I'm watching him worry about her. I'm watching them become closer right in front of my eyes. I'm seeing every thoughtful gesture he does for her. And me? I'm not happy. I'm not smiling. I'm done being agreeable. Fuck not causing trouble. I'm about to set my Dragon's world on fire. And then I'm walking away. She can have him. For the first time in my life, I'm choosing myself.

Percy Jackson was once a hero-a legend who defied the gods and saved the world. But heroism came at a cost. After the war with Gaia, he was stolen away, dragged into the abyss of Tartarus, where he suffered unimaginable torment for 200 years. When he finally escaped, the world had moved on without him. His friends-the Seven-were dead, their names lost to time. Olympus was silent. He had nothing left. Now, he wanders the streets of Gotham, a city as broken as he is. Haunted by memories of war, suffering from PTSD, survivor's guilt, and nightmares, Percy is only a shadow of the warrior he once was. When Batman finds him, a background check reveals a shocking truth-Percy Jackson was reported missing over 200 years ago. Beyond that, he doesn't exist. Taken in by the Justice League, Percy undergoes a medical examination that leaves even the most hardened heroes stunned. His body is covered in scars-evidence of centuries of suffering-and his mind is fractured, drowning in grief and trauma. The entire League, from Superman to Green Lantern, stands in silent disbelief. The Young Justice team struggles to understand the shattered figure before them, the man who was once a hero of myths and legends. Only Wonder Woman and Aquaman recognize his name, remembering the demigod who once carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. But Percy is no longer a hero. He is a ghost, a relic of a forgotten past. He has no purpose, no reason to fight. And yet, something in Gotham calls to him. The storm still rages within, the power of the sea still thrums beneath his skin. Perhaps, in this city of shadows, he can find a reason to keep going. Perhaps, if he stays long enough, he will remember what it means to be alive.

Percy Jackson. A 17 year old boy with a broken heart and a scarred soul. In the war against Gaea, he lost everything. He lost his lovely Wise Girl to Gaea. Broken he meets Tony Stark a so-called selfish asshole. Will Tony and the rest of the Avengers be able to help Percy and maybe save him? Or is it already too late? !!!Introduction chapter is important!!! !!!!Allowed to read by my parents!!!! All characters belongs either to Uncle Rick or Marvel AKA Stan Lee

Percy goes to live with the Avengers. The Avengers then realize something strange about the boy. There is an emptiness in his eyes and the way he and his girlfriend, Annabeth, are so protective over each other. What's his deal? The Avengers are going to lose against Thanos, luckily they made a new powerful friend and he has powerful friends of his own. Takes place after Blood of Olympus. In the Marvel timeline it's kinda messed up because the storyline changes completely, I guess it's around about the time of Infinity War. Best rankings: 1st in Percabeth (my OTP obviously) 1st in Percy Jackson 1st in Hazel Levesque 1st in Infinity War 1st in Pjo Fandom 1st in Demigods 1st in Grover Underwood 1st in Piper Mclean 1st in Frazel 1st in Annabeth Chase 1st in Heroes of Olympus 1st in Wanda 1st in Black Widow 1st in Nico di Angelo 1st in Will Solace 1st in Jason Grace *Disclaimer: I don't own Avengers (that's marvel studios) or anything PJO or HoO related (they go to good old Uncle Rick). I made the cover picture but it's obviously Viria's art and a pic from in Infinity war that I just put in the same pic.*

A raven-haired young woman knelt at the foot of Halfblood Hill, coated in dirt. Sweat. Golden ash. And blood. So, so much blood. Her's. Her friends'. Her enemies'. Zeus must've taken pity on those still alive, because it began to rain. Like the King of the Gods was trying to wash away the stench of Death.
