They weren't supposed to mean anything to each other. A few late nights. A few stolen hours behind closed doors. It should have been easy - and for a while, it was. But you can only hold your breath for so long before something gives. And some fractures don't show until it's already too late to fix them.

Here we are back at it again. Our ragtag party of adventurers is now on the hunt for the secrets of the Dark, Powerful, and Elusive Wizard of old. The Whispered One. Operation break-in: Has commenced. Let's see where our party takes us now, down this rabbit hole. Let's not be late! Disclaimer: I do NOT own TLOVM. ALL RIGHTS AND ANIMATION BELONG to Critical Roll.

Esme Travere thought she'd found her family when she was sixteen. Instead, she found years of bruises, broken promises, and the kind of love that came with conditions. When Severin throws her out with nothing but a carry-on and their six-month-old daughter, Esme swears Juliette will never grow up thinking love looks like this. Thanks to a chain of women with no patience for cowards, Esme ends up in Monaco, working in Pascale Leclerc's salon. And there, between hair dye and daycare runs, she meets Pascale's middle son-a Formula 1 driver with too-kind eyes, who looks at her like she's already halfway his.

"No-please-don't do this!" Seraphina sobbed, her voice cracking as she clung to her eldest brother's wrist. "I-I'll be good. I'll do whatever you say, just don't-" A sharp crack echoed through the room as his palm struck her cheek, sending her crashing to the marble floor. Pain exploded across her skin, but it was nothing compared to the terror clawing at her chest. From above, his voice was cold. Unmoved. "You will marry him." She shook her head wildly, crawling backward until her spine hit the wall. "He's a monster," she whispered, her breath shuddering. "He's not human. Please, don't make me do this. I'll die." Her second brother crouched in front of her, grabbing her chin roughly, forcing her to look at him. His lips curled, eyes void of warmth. "Then die." Her breath hitched. "But you will die as his wife." The door behind them creaked open. Heavy footsteps. Her father stepped inside, his expression unreadable. "Lock her in this room," he ordered. "She will not step out until her wedding day." Sera thrashed as hands seized her, dragging her toward the massive iron doors. "No! Please-Father, please!" But he didn't even look at her. The last thing she saw before the door slammed shut was her brothers standing side by side, indifferent as she was thrown into a fate worse than death. Then darkness. And the only thing left was the suffocating truth. She was a sacrifice. A bride to the Sinister, a devil himself. #A STANDALONE BOOK

Five years gone. Now she's back, and working with the one man she never forgot. Tim Bradford x OC Not following the series but using some key events

"You sunshine, you temptress" Tim Bradford x OC (Season 1 - 4x01)

🦋 Oscar is focused on one thing...becoming a better driver. Love isn't even on his radar, while he's left third wheeling his way through the paddock. That is, until a spilled iced coffee and an awkward encounter with Juliette Wolff changes everything. Juliette Wolff knows better than to get involved with a driver, especially one racing for a rival team. But Oscar is nothing like the rest. He's kind, a little awkward, and surprisingly easy to talk to. What starts as teasing and late night texts slowly turns into something neither of them expected. But with team politics and media pressure, falling for each other might be the most reckless move of all...and yet, makes the most sense. ✨ Same timeline/universe [set during/after] Fo(u)r The Better ✨
