Completed • First Draft - not edited. || "You gonna sit there all night?" Luka glances at me, smirking. I glare back. "I was enjoying the last few seconds of peace before having to spend an evening pretending to like you." "That's funny," he says, unbuckling his seatbelt. "Why?" I snap. "Because I was thinking the same thing." || The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right? Sofia Calloway never planned on going viral for throwing a drink in Luka Mikhaylov's face. But one video, one pissed-off hockey star, and one furious university later... she's suddenly stuck in a fake relationship with the guy she can't stand. He needs to clean up his image before the NHL draft. She needs the free tuition that comes with the deal. All they have to do is smile for the cameras, hold hands at the games, and act like they don't want to strangle each other. Then come the late-night arguments that last too long. The stolen glances that feel too dangerous. The moment where "pretend" starts looking way too real. Because when you break the rules, someone's bound to lose. And this time, it might be both of them.

❝Nine companions,❞ Elrond began. 𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘰 𝘧𝘢𝘴𝘵, 𝘈𝘥𝘢𝘳. ❝Make it ten.❞ Eluin, the fiery youngest of the House of Elrond, decided to embark on a journey with the Fellowship of the Ring as the Tenth Companion to aid the Ringbearer's quest to Mordor. The Bluestar, they called her, burned with a vengeful fire. Her purpose aligned with the Fellowship's path, but would she stay true to her resolve... or let a certain Prince show her there was more to an immortal life than the justice she sought? Caught at a crossroads between duty and desire, which way will her heart choose to follow? Legolas was certainly making the choice difficult. The Fellowship must succeed, for the fate of all Free Peoples of Middle Earth hung in the balance. The One Ring must be destroyed, right in the flaming chasms of Mount Doom it was forged. Sauron must fall, and his evil unmade. Dive into a tale of adventure, courage, friendship, and loss. Would Eluin prove the saying ❛The light of the Bluestar does not flicker and falter❜ true? Join her to see the Fellowship's wills tested and hearts tempted by shadows of power.
