Y/N Beaumont-Gray thought Beauxbatons would be the centre of attention at Hogwarts. Turns out the real headline is: Fred Weasley has decided she's his favourite person. He flirts. She rolls her eyes. He pranks. She threatens him in French. He falls first-and makes it everyone's problem. But behind the jokes, the Tournament grows darker... and the closer they get, the more it starts to feel like goodbye. 🕯️🩵

Hawkins, Indiana is the kind of town where everyone knows everyone-and secrets never stay buried. Seventeen-year-old Charlotte Hopper, better known as Lottie, has lived in Hawkins her entire life. After losing her little sister Sarah to cancer five years ago, her world has never quite been the same. Her mom left, and ever since, it's just been Lottie and her dad, Chief Jim Hopper, trying to hold their broken family together in their small trailer on the edge of town. Lottie learned early how to survive heartbreak. Funny, stubborn, and fiercely protective of the people she loves, Lottie refuses to let Hawkins High define her. She stands up for the bullied, especially her best friend Jonathan Byers-the town's favorite target. Most afternoons she escapes the drama of high school by babysitting the Wheeler kids, where Lucas, Dustin, Mike, and Will see her as the cool older sister they never had. But Lottie has one problem she can't escape. Steve Harrington. A year ago, Steve was her boyfriend. Now he's the boy who broke her heart and chose popularity-and Nancy Wheeler-instead. Lottie hates everything about him now: King Steve, his stupid hair, and the way he acts like none of it mattered. She's determined to forget him. Until the night everything in Hawkins changes. When Will Byers suddenly disappears without a trace, the quiet town begins to unravel. As the search begins and strange things start happening in the shadows, Lottie finds herself pulled into a mystery far darker than anyone imagined. And the last person she wants to rely on... is Steve Harrington.

The war doesn't start with a battle. It starts with the way Hogwarts stops being safe. Y/N Goodwin has always been part of the Golden Trio's orbit, a Gryffindor brave enough to laugh with them, reckless enough to follow them, and steady enough to bring them back. After fourth year, she and Harry share a connection neither can name. In fifth year, Harry reaches for something easy with Cho Chang, but it never fits right. The truth sits closer. Quieter. Waiting. A canon-set retelling from Order of the Phoenix onward, where the events stay the same... but the love story changes. 💌 Because sometimes, the biggest difference isn't what happens. It's who is there when it does.

The only thing more dangerous than a Shelby with a gun is a Shelby in love. Nell Shelby is a name spoken in whispers. She is the "Iron Princess" of the Small Heath, a woman with the calculating mind of Tommy and the defiant heart of Ada. She doesn't scream to be heard, and she doesn't use a gun when a single, well-placed word could do more damage. She is the Shelby's most lethal asset: the negotiator who never blinks. When the power struggle for London reaches a fever pitch, Tommy Shelby makes a calculated move. He sends Nell to Camden Town to oversee the distillery of the one man he can't control. The brilliant, erratic, and utterly mad Alfie Solomons. Tommy's instructions were simple: Watch him. Report back. Don't let him breathe. But behind the locked doors of the distillery, the cold war between the Lion and the Shelby turns into something far more dangerous. In the moments between business deals, Alfie finds the fire beneath Nell's silk dresses, and Nell finds the only man alive who is brilliant enough to keep her interested.

Lillian was the girl Polly Gray raised. Michael was the son she lost. For seven years, Lillian was a Shelby, the living embodiment of a promise made to her dead mother. Then Michael Gray came home, and suddenly she was just the substitute. She was supposed to hate him for stealing her place. He was supposed to resent her for living the life that should have been his. But in the smoke-filled rooms and stolen glances, they found something else: something dangerous and utterly consuming. .......... His gaze was heavy. "Don't look at me like that, Lilly," he warned, his voice a low rumble that did traitorous things to her insides. "As if you're not looking at me the same way."

Between the callouts and the chaos, there are moments that never made it into the report. This is where Skylar Altair breathes between the lines-where love hesitates, grief lingers, and life happens off-duty. A collection of unwritten scenes, alternate timelines, and everything that could've been. Welcome to Afterschock: Reverbarations, a book of oneshots set in the Afterschock universe.

Some people break like glass. She learned how to shatter silently. Skylar Altair wasn't supposed to wear a badge. At twenty-four, she was a certified prodigy-board-certified in half a dozen specialties, a nuclear medicine and neuro-path genius, a rising star in a white coat. The youngest. The brightest. The girl who never failed. But trauma doesn't care about your résumé. Loss doesn't care how many degrees you've earned. And the world doesn't stop spinning just because your soul flatlines. Her father died in front of her eyes when she was twelve. Her brother spiraled into addiction. And when she needed help most-when everything was taken from her in a single night-no one came. Not the heroes. Not the law. Not the system. So she stopped waiting. They taught her how to save people. Now she's going to learn how to protect herself. With the steel of a soldier in her blood and the precision of a surgeon in her bones, Skylar trades the hospital lights for sirens, scrubs for Kevlar. Becoming a cop was never the plan. But plans change-especially after the aftershock. In a city that's breaking at the seams, Skylar will have to confront everything she tried to bury: her rage, her grief, her brilliance, and the terrifying possibility that maybe-just maybe-she was meant for this life all along. Genius. Survivor. Rookie. She's not trying to be a hero. She's just trying not to fall apart again.

➜ "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. Evelyn Harrow arrives in the smoky heart of the city with one mission: spy on Tommy Shelby and bring down the Peaky Blinders from within. Daughter of a ruthless gang kingpin, she is trained to be a weapon-cold and calculating. But as Evelyn delves deeper into the Shelby world, the lines between duty and desire blur. When love threatens to undo her carefully constructed allegiance, Evelyn must choose: loyalty to her family... or the man who might be her only salvation.
