Say that the 'honest work' that St. John found for Jane Eyre, was as governess to the children of Maria Crawford.  By which means, she would escape the fatal lure of Rochester: and be drawn instead into the orbit of Henry Crawford...

The title comes from the Jane Eyre quote, 'I am no bird, and no net ensnares me'.

"Tell me you don't want that," his darkened eyes clashed with her dazed ones, "Say it, and we'll stop right now. Tell me, and I'll go." Silence hung in the air, the distant hum of passing cars and crickets fading into the night. "Cause I have every intention of making you my wife, the mother of my kids, my everything. I want that. I want you. Understand?" Her eyes welled up, and her lips trembled as she swallowed hard, then nodded quickly, "I want that too." "That's what I thought, baby." ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ Cerise Rowan liked to keep things simple. Her days were a steady loop of sleep, eat, study, repeat. She told herself she valued comfort, though in truth, change terrified her. With change came anxiety, and her mind, already a delicate balance, struggled to cope. Her favorite S-words: sleep, solitude, and snacks, were enough to keep her "mild" disorder in check. Until another one entered her life. Well... two. If you count sex. ♡ Saint Novak lived by two rules: stay comfortable and take each day as it came. With his intimidating presence and (mostly) emotionless exterior, he wasn't exactly easy to get to know. He didn't waste time on dead ends, keeping his life decisively organized. People and things included. But Saint's problems were far from "mild". For years, he believed he had nothing to lose. Now, he's learning what it means to have goals, to want more, and to keep what's important to him close. So what happens when he walks into his parlor and is greeted by a new face? A very pretty face. One that stirs desires he didn't even know he had. Well, one taste of her is more than enough to set a few more goals.

ALL AROUND ME ↝ WEASLEY TWINS

6 parts Ongoing

"Augustine" ↳ Meaning: exalted, venerable, majestic. But no one would describe Augustine Parr that way-well, except for maybe Fred and George, who might jokingly call her "majestic." Everyone else had their own take. Some would say, "the sister you never knew you needed." Ask her Irish twin of a brother, Emerson, though, and he'd probably call her a "life ruiner." As for Augustine? She would simply say, "I'm just Augustine. Nothing else." To her, she was just Augustine Kimura-Parr: the only magical user out of her five siblings who went to Hogwarts. Her brothers had chosen their mother's alma mater, Ilvermorny, instead, while her two sisters-one older, one younger-had no magic at all, thanks to their parents both being half-bloods. With no one to compare herself to, she was simply Augustine: the Hufflepuff sister of many, and the world of some. - Started: 01/01/2025 Ended: - © takashiriot
