'Don't look, Lillian. Never look into the eyes of a Sin-Eater, you will be as cursed as he is and will forever languish in darkness.' Lillian Elmes remembers the warning her mother gave her about the town's Sin-Eater only too well. How could she not when she'd ignored it as a child, only to find herself plagued with nightmares when she'd seen with her own eyes what the dark work of the Sin-Eaters entailed? Now an adult, Lilian's curiosity still burns deep, especially when she crosses paths again with the town's freshly-appointed Sin-Eater, the mysterious and strangely alluring, Daniel Carver. Desperate to find out whether the rumours about the dark priests are true, Lillian makes the journey into the forest to spy on Daniel in his woodland cottage, only to realise that she really should have heeded her mother's warning all those years before. For Lillian Elmes, looking into the eyes of the Sin-Eater is going to bring her far more than she had ever imagined it would - murder and mayhem, ghosts that just won't lay to rest and an attraction that might just be more lethal than the undead who've started rising from their graves.

Thirty one blind dates to be exact. Hoping this to be Lucky Number 7, Suzi heads off to meet the very cool Ms. Dante, who's sporting an inverted crucifix earring and a Stranger Things button. The most Suzi was expecting was to not spill passata down her white vintage dress, but the mysterious Ms. Dante has a claim to fame which is either going to make for a very interesting evening, or perhaps become the weirdest date Suzi has ever been on. *** This one-shot is part of the 31 Blind Dates anthology from more than two dozen Wattpad writers including members of the Stars program, published authors, Ambassadors and Wattys winners. At the end of each story, you will find the link to the next chapter in the collection.

'The best way to make alliances, is with marriage.' Daenerys Targaryen sits on the Iron Throne. Days after arriving in Westeros, the Lannister forces were destroyed; in a reign of fire and blood not seen since Aegon's conquest. As the ash settles she turns her gaze north, where a bastard calls himself king and the people eye her with fear and suspicion. Intent on unifying the realms of north and south, she rides her army to Winterfell, armed with a proposition that could ensure peace for generations to come. Jon Snow - battle weary and reluctant - has been crowned King of The North. Heralded a hero after the battle of The Bastards, he has no designs on the Iron Throne for himself. Haunted by what he's seen beyond the wall, Jon welcomes Daenerys Targaryen, fully intent on bending the knee, knowing he will need her support in the Great War still to come. Jon is stunned by Daenerys's proposition - offered to him atop the snow covered walls of the castle he grew up a bastard with a bastard's name. As Jon finally confronts his destiny, he will be forced to question everything he has ever known about himself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *DISCLAIMER* This is GoT Fanfiction. This is an alternate take on the ending of GoT which in terms of timeline would be set after the events of SEASON 6 of the TV show. The books are perfect and I shall not be messing with them. *ANOTHER DISCLAIMER* I do not own these characters. George RR Martin does and are featured in his series of novels: A Song of Ice and Fire. This is mainly Jonerys fanfic. Some of your other favourite characters may appear, but they will be secondary because Jonerys is endgame, Jonerys is the only show in town, Jonerys is life, Jonerys4Life... Ad infinitum. This is essentially a complete rewrite of the last two seasons of the show which feels completely necessary at the moment for to me to nurse this broken heart. Updates whenever - I shouldn't even be writing this!
