She was born into power...
But never truly belonged.
In the crime-ridden city of Denvara, where syndicates rule the streets and corruption hides behind noble names, Serene Ellinoire Marquess lives haunted by the mystery of her mother's death.
When a dangerous secret leads her to suspect her own brother, Serene is thrust into Viensage-a clandestine organization of young operatives authorized to do what the law cannot.
To investigate.
To punish.
To kill.
As she descends into a world of violence, betrayal, and buried truths, Serene discovers that her mother's death may be connected to a conspiracy far larger than she ever imagined.
And the deeper she digs, the more she realizes:
Some families are built on secrets.
Others are built on blood.
The Wretched Soul's Vengeance
In a city consumed by darkness, justice comes wearing a mask.

Klaus Baudelaire x Reader (Has some light swearing and a little violence, but is mostly child friendly) ~~~~~~~~~ Here's the gist of it: Your name is Y/n Caliban, and you're the daughter of Olivia Caliban. The Baudelaires were your close friends for a while, but then you moved away and you guys drifted apart. They show up at the school you attend a few years later, and you quickly become friends again. Long story short, you get involved with V.F.D. and go on adventures with the Baudelaires while trying to hide the way you maybe-sorta-really like Klaus because you're afraid it will ruin your friendship with him. ~~~~~~~~~~ This starts in in The Austere Academy, and may go on for a few books/episodes after that, but probably won't be too long of a book. It might have some fluff here and there (mostly Dunclet and Jalivia fluff), but it's a semi-slow burn between you and Klaus. It's based more on the show than the books. •Not discontinued anymore! Yay!• Updates may be a little slow, and I don't have any sort of schedule for updating, so please be patient with me :)Complete
