Part 1 of the "Resilience" Saga. Elaina Kane was born among the stars on the Ark. Despite having a councilman father, she never agreed with the unjust system and laws of the ship. Locked up for stealing spare parts and old tech, she didn't expect a second chance-especially not on Earth. Now, she's one of the hundred sent to a ruined planet to test its ability to sustain life again. But survival isn't just about facing what's out there. It's about learning who to trust and what it means to feel something real for the first time. Between deadly secrets, divided loyalties, and an unexpected connection with an unlikely friend, Elaina must figure out who she is in a world that is nothing like the one she came from. On Earth, love is risky. Survival is never guaranteed. But maybe, for the first time...freedom is real. Resilience: noun; the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties.

I dont wanna keep secrets, just to keep you Riverdale S1 - S4 Sweet pea x Fem!oc @Storie1whore 2024

Olive Wells had one goal for the summer before senior year at Briar University: finally stop overthinking her life and start living it. At the top of her bucket list? Have sex. Simple enough. Or at least, it was supposed to be. But while filming a mini documentary on Briar's beloved hockey team, Olive finds herself pulled into the orbit of Dean Heyward-Di Laurentis, the team's golden boy, campus legend, and walking bad decision in designer clothes. He's cocky, charming, impossible to ignore, and very aware of the effect he has on every girl who looks his way. Dean doesn't do serious. Not after his clingy high school girlfriend made him swear off anything that came with expectations, feelings, or the terrifying phrase "where is this going?" Olive is supposed to be casual. Fun. Temporary. Except Olive Wells is nothing like he expected. She challenges him. Distracts him. Gets under his skin without even trying. And the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes for Dean to pretend she's just another summer fling. Olive only wanted to cross one thing off her list. Dean only wanted to keep things easy. But somewhere between stolen glances, late-night filming sessions, and lines they keep pretending not to cross, casual starts looking a lot like something real. Now the only question is who falls first... And who ends up falling harder.

Bonnie Heyward Di-Laurentis hates hockey. Unfortunately, she lives with four hockey players. While her twin brother, Dean, spends his time on the ice causing problems, Bonnie spends hers avoiding the loud, ego-driven chaos that comes with living at Briar University's unofficial hockey house. Especially John Logan. One of Briar's charming player has spent the last three years shamelessly flirting with her, pushing her buttons, and refusing to take the hint. Bonnie can't stand his cocky grin, his endless confidence, or the fact that he somehow always knows exactly how to get under her skin. Logan, meanwhile, thinks Bonnie hating him is the most entertaining thing that's ever happened to him. Living together was never supposed to be complicated. Then again, neither was falling for the one person you swore you'd never touch.

❝ Don't look at me like that. You have no idea what it's like to want someone so badly it feels like you're going insane. Just standing in the same room, watching you exist out of my reach, is pure agony. Put an end to it, Angel. Please, just take me out of my misery.❞ In which Briar University's most notorious womanizer, Dean Di Laurentis, falls into a hopeless obsession with Garrett Graham's best friend, fighting a desperate losing battle against a temptation that is forbidden to him. Or where Evangeline Davenport makes a bet with her best friend that she can transform any campus playboy into a decent man without him ever touching her, completely unaware that Garrett had already invoked a strict "hands-off rule" just to sabotage her.

Neveah's life was already complicated-broken family, old scars, too many secrets. She didn't need Sweet Pea crashing into it with his sharp edges, stupid grin, and a loyalty that burned hotter than any threat. She was supposed to stay away. He wasn't supposed to care. But when everything falls apart, sometimes the person you're most afraid of is the one who refuses to let you go.

She was the Salvatore they never spoke of, Alicia, twin to Stefan. In 1864, she tried to save the woman they both loved and died for it, only to rise again on Katherine's blood. A vampire born of sacrifice and silence. She ran. From Mystic Falls, from her brothers, from the weight of what she'd become. Until New Orleans. Until him. Elijah Mikaelson. The noble one. The original who saw past her fangs and fear. They married in secret, whispered vows in a city drunk on jazz and danger. For a breath, she was happy. Then came Mikael. Hunting Klaus. Hunting her, a Salvatore to burn for good measure. So she ran again. Left Elijah without a word. Let him believe she was ash and memory. Now she's back in Mystic Falls. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘵?

She had grown up surrounded by horses, awkward silences, and the imposing figure of her father, John Dutton. But in Yellowstone, wanting is not enough. You have to fight. You have to bleed. Maggie learned that very early on. 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙙 : 28.04.25 𝙥𝙪𝙗𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙 : 15.05.25 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙙 : SEASON 1 - 5 RYAN X FEM!OC [Cover made by @strangerly_]

We grew up side by side - me, Jax Teller, and Opie Winston. Late nights sneaking out, hiding from the world, daring each other to dream bigger than Charming. But I left, chasing a future in Texas and running straight into the arms of the wrong kind of outlaw. Years later, broken and looking for home, I pull into Teller-Morrow in my dad's Chevelle... and the boy I used to lean on is a man now. A man I swore I'd never fall for. A man who might burn my whole world down.
