The Unfortunate Twist of Fate. by writtenbyzahira

Three friends-Knox, Ivana, and Olivier-share an intense bond, one where loyalty and betrayal spiral into tragedy. Knox and Ivana, having grown up together, recently evolved their friendship into a passionate romance, understanding each other's deepest desires. Ivana, with her fascination for black magic, potion-making, and fortune-telling, will go to any length to protect her love. Meanwhile, Olivier finds solace in Greek philosophy and science, and Knox is captivated by Shakespeare and theater. This story explores the darkness of obsession, the fragility of loyalty, and the inevitable unraveling of friendships when love, jealousy, and ambition collide. "One evening, Ivana whispered to herself that she would do anything to protect the life she and Knox had built. In that quiet moment, her reflection in the glass caught her off guard; her face looked distant, unfamiliar. Still, she pushed the thought away, her fingers tracing over a vial of dark liquid she'd prepared with an unsteady hand." ‿︵‿︵୨˚̣̣̣͙୧ - - ୨˚̣̣̣͙୧‿︵‿︵ Hope you enjoyed reading!

Not until Claudius Templesmith announces their name and district to the entire nation. Once the tribute becomes a victor, they're taken out of the Arena. Only to eventually realise they never truly escaped. The nightmares, the cameras, the deals, nothing ever lets them forget. Their entire lives, they're reminded of what they did.

"Have you come here to die?" The voice was a bare whisper against the enveloping dark. It sounded stark and cold, with nothing in offer linked to safety. Yet, it brought me comfort of great proportions. ♛ ♛ ♛ In the dark wintry recesses of Baneberry Lane where the sun seems to set earlier than the rest, troubled passion blankets the streets. Known as the Valley of The Shadow of Death by the commoners for the dangerous folk it harbors. There's a house at the corner of the street underneath the pavement where a lone mollyboy stays with his dying mother with no inclination to trouble, save the knife he carries for protection. Brinley knows people look at him when he walks the districts. He sees the disgust in their eyes, he understands. The same dysphoria follows him everytime he looks at his body. Being born a girl, with a girls body and a girls voice took nothing from him knowing he was a boy. So he carries on, deepening his voice and binding his chest. Hoping one day, the misgendered notions would drop and people see him. Finn was born into wealth. Yet, the one thing he wants is the one thing he can never have. It's the secret he keeps against his family. Being attracted to the same sex is seen as a passing moment or a hankering in one's life.
