All the stories? All those rumors? They were all true - well, most of them. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was my grandfather's best friend, so, he'd know that side of the story very well. - The Voice I Call Steve 

So, we are sent to a different form of child labor, where we solve mysteries with whatever grey matter we have, eh? - Markeith 

Come on, lass. You must have heard the stories? You do recall who was Holmes's greatest enemy? Surely you must have heard of him? - James Moriarty, Professor Emeritus of Chemical Engineering 

*.*.*.*

It was a snap decision when she accepted the terms given to her by The Voice. It was either that, or remain in the system that abused her. She wasn't even sure until she was brought to a mansion of some sort and was slowly being deprogrammed from her previous lifestyle. She became Markeith, one of the many adopted into the system of Sherlock's Home, House for the Orphaned. 

Sent on one of the bigger missions with her partner, things began to turn for the worse when a man that went by the name of Moriarty began to surface, sending cryptic messages and little riddles that involved the assassination of the Queen herself. It further goes south when a mysterious man called Cedric Marton decided to help her and her team of rebels with a cause. To help matters worse, she couldn't help but feel attracted to both - Moriarty and Marton. But, will she let her heart be ruled over, or would she let her mind choose her own path?

As a former Hogwarts student, journalist and magician activist Cassandra Doyle was delighted and honored when she received a letter from the Deputy Headmistress Matilda Weasley, asking her to join the teaching staff as Alchemy professor. However, as she arrives at the school Cassandra discovers she won't be the only one teaching that fascinating yet challenging subject: Master Potion Aesop Sharp will flank her. Two personalities, and two ways of teaching, so different that they will inevitably end up clashing and provoking... but also getting to know each other deeply, forgetting and overcoming their respective past traumas. The two will learn alchemy is not only a subject to be taught, but also a sensation to be felt and lived. ~ Tropes: age gap - forced proximity - enemies to lovers - slow burn TW: explicit content and language, injuries, death, smoking, alcohol consumption DISCLAIMER: the story is set in 1898 (7 years after the end of Hogwarts Legacy), so the events that occur are fictional and may not correspond to what actually happened in reality. Furthermore, English is not my native language, so I apologize in advance if some sentences and names are not written correctly - feel free to correct me! Finally, I am aware that Sharp's background is similar to that chosen in other fan fictions. I'm sorry if it seems like I copied and pasted; it was never my intention. What I wrote is entirely the product of my imagination, and I never intended to steal the work or ideas of others. I believe that this man, his past, and his inner demons have evoked the same effect and impressions in all of us. 🫠

"Annabeth, I-" "SHUT UP!" I yell. I take the ring off and throw it at him. "I hate you! Do you know that? I hate you. I will never marry you. Ever. Why do you think I would marry you?" I start crying. "I don't want to be with you. I don't want to see you again. I don't even like you!" I look at the ground as tears overtake me. How could he do that? Why did he do it in front of so many people? 'Witnesses', he said. That belongs in a court case, not a marriage proposal. I can't believe anyone would think I want this... He comes up to me and puts his hands on my cheeks, forcing me to look in his eyes. "You must act excited about this, Annabeth. You can't tell anyone your true feelings about this, especially Alexander." So that's what this is about. He saw me being friendly with Xander and has to keep me for himself. I always thought he liked me... "If you tell anyone I forced you into this, I'll have you killed, and it will look like an accident." *** Annabeth Hutcherson just wanted to find a job so she could see what life was like outside her town. When a handsome gentleman approaches her and offers her the one thing she needs to stay, she accepts. Everything would be provided for her? It was too good to be true. She wasn't aware of the consequences that came with the position, like having to leave all her friends and family, being held prisoner, and... get married? And then she meets Alexander Matthews, and he changes her whole world. Can he help her get away or will she be stuck forever?
