Luck in a Sense (Illumi x Reader)
Illumi x Female Reader There's a time in our lives when we're willing to go mad for the person we love. We question if it's the right thing, and then we question if we care. She hasn't loved someone in a long while, and he isn't even sure what it is, what will it take for them to uncover such a thing? Read to unscramble. (Smut and gore gets worse with each chapter so beware. I'm not a monster though, it's nothing you can't handle ;)) This book is short and complete, the first part is just character description and reading preferences you can skip if you want.
