I was born a slave, condemned to a fate where freedom was but an unreachable dream. My life led me to the court of Emperor Geta, where I was just a shadow among others, a silent being at the service of imperial power. Everything changed the day Geta chose me to be his concubine. This role, both envied and feared, thrust me into the heart of the court's intrigues, where every smile could hide a betrayal. But my destiny did not end there. Caracalla, Geta's twin brother and legitimate heir, represented the future of the Empire. Charged with watching over him, I discovered a complex man, torn between ambition and vulnerability. An odd and unpredictable relationship formed between us, blending tension, jealousy, and moments of unsettling sincerity. In this ruthless world, the ties between Geta, Caracalla, and me were filled with power, love, and veiled betrayals. With Geta, I shared a fragile complicity, but even affection couldn't protect me from the dangers lurking in the palace corridors. From a mere slave, I became both concubine and protector, navigating between loyalty and survival. My story is that of a woman thrown into the heart of power games, in the shadow of the two imperial twins. This work is a historical fiction inspired by Ancient Rome.

Iraq, 2006. In the midst of war, Zuleyha, a young Kurdish girl, tries to survive in a country on fire. For her, the American soldiers are nothing more than invaders, responsible for the destruction of her people. But everything changes when she finds a wounded soldier near her village: Sam, a Navy SEAL hit in an ambush. She should have let him die. Yet, against all logic, she hides him and nurses his wounds in secret. Every day, the tension between them grows: between mistrust, hatred, and a strange attraction she refuses to admit. But as she begins to see the man behind the uniform, their secret is revealed. The American soldiers find Sam... and capture Zuleyha. Torn from her world, she finds herself imprisoned in a military base, surrounded by enemies who suspect her of being a threat. She has no one left... except Sam. But in this camp, the man she saved is no longer a wounded man dependent on her. He's back among his own people, and he must make a choice: protect her or let her be treated like an enemy. In a world where everything opposes them, can they understand each other? And above all... can they love without betraying their own people?

Piano keys were her childhood, but the grasp of a pistol was her reality. Polish SOE Agent, Natia Filipska, has lurked among the rubble and the shadows of her occupied-Warsaw for years, ever since the war started and ripped her from the life that had guaranteed happiness and opportunity. The SOE took her in, as well as her two siblings, Klimeck and Ryzshard, arming them with a fighting spirit, and a chance at survival, at a life where they could avenge the ones that were taken. Being apart of the Cichociemni came next, Elite Polish Paratroopers, and it was their ticket home. Ever since her feet had then touched the ground, she had been fighting with her home and her people - the Polish Home Army. The Warsaw Uprising got her captured, and then being on the run nearly got her killed - her only ally was the pistol at her side. The Dutch Resistance of Eindhoven, Holland housed her, but it would never be her home. Upon liberation though, her path crossed with an Airborne Infantry - the 101st Airborne Division - the Screaming Eagles - American men. To ensure her safety back to Warsaw, Poland and her family, Easy Company and their men might be her only hope. But hope was lost long ago. ------------------------- " Well, I've been 'fraid of changin' 'Cause I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder Even children get older And I'm gettin' older, too...." - Landslide, Fleetwood Mac ---------- mature themes are held within the context of this story that may be triggering to some people: death, smoking, alcohol, killings, and severe depression, along with mental health issues. --------- band of brothers + oc's { October 2nd 2020 } UPDATES BEGIN - Fridays starting 10 - 2 - 20 started: 7/4/20 ended: 3/15/23 ------------------------ NEW COVER!!! done by ME!!! credits on words by @swedeandspicy

// My jaw clenched as I glared at the pin. He stepped closer, and closer still until I had to look up at him. I forced myself to maintain eye contact despite the intense urge to look away.

Maria, a married Frenchwoman living in Nazi-occupied Hautmont in the Second World War, is in need of a unique kind of love. Who would've thought that uniquely forbidden love comes in the form of a devilishly handsome Nazi Lieutenant? (Inspired by Suite Française)

Wilhelm Krammer has an ax to grind after his fiancée dies in his arms. Pulled from command, he's assigned to work on a time travel project...which goes horribly wrong. When a machine test misfires, Wilhelm is transported to modern-day Berlin. He sees and learns things he can barely comprehend. The only thing that doesn't make him recoil is the woman who comes to his aid and is determined to help him get home. Emily Feit can hardly believe her eyes when a WW2 SS Captain lands at her feet. Knowing he's injured and desperate, she can't walk away. With no other choice, Emily lets him stay with her. Neither of them expected to develop feelings for the other, so how can things possibly work out when they fall in love? Complicating matters is her friend, Daniel Roth, who secretly loves her. But there's more to Daniel's instant hatred of Wilhelm than jealousy over a woman. Daniel knows something isn't right with her new friend. And he intends to get to the bottom of it with the help of his elderly great-grandfather - an ex-Nazi hunter who has his own ax to grind.
