All Dahlia Winters could recall about her childhood was her dead parents--ones who died when she was just a baby--and being a part of the Agency. The weight that came along with keeping her city safe.

That's what happens when you're the city's famous, most loved vigilante.

Only that her life--when she's just an average college student--was slowly going down the drain thanks to her antihero nemesis, and the city's most notorious villain: Ice Phantom.

Not to forget her ex-best friend and his hateful glances, and the cold reminder of their last interaction on New Year's Eve. Then there was her smouldering hot, blue-eyed roommate, who made her heart skip a beat every time he looked at her. And Dahlia couldn't, for the life of her, understand why.

Despite being the city's masked hero, which was a big responsibility on its own, Dahlia couldn't help but dread if it was her normal citizen life she should be more concerned about.

Live For It  by LyEr7107

He seemed like the devil. He was evil. Cruel. She was always portrayed as a weapon. A tool. An occasional use. One wrong turn -literally- and everything changes. What happens when she finally decides to stand up for herself? The once known 'shy' assassin is now a runaway killer. Will she be able to protect the people she loves while fighting for her title? That arrogant and dangerous man, Zion Armani, who has a past trailing to hers...They meet again. Forgiveness is a difficult concept. Two broken souls from two different sides. Many failed attempts, many murderous frenzies, and many unretrievable mistakes. Her concept of life is far-fetched compared to others, one of the many things that makes her so human and so real, even if she was taught to refuse it. Could she battle the wars in the underground world while an addicting man fought against her? A chase? Not necessarily. Will she find a reason to keep going? Will Zhara Di Maggio find something --or someone-- to believe in? Will the Golden Raven prove her fate wrong and find her own reason to live? ~~~ Zion Armani, even the darkest hide from his shadows. Zhara Di Maggio, the only brightness left. "You know how to live, you're just too scared to do it."

The world isn't really what you think it is. Below the surface there is a battle for good and evil. Supernatural beings live, love and fight on both sides of the war. No one knows who's winning and depending on who you ask what side they are on, good or evil. Lines were drawn thousands of years ago. Between those that fed on humans in some way or another called Verga versus those that didn't called Empa. A battle that never ends with only one reward. Their consort, a supernatural beings soul mate. Dahlia is Kitsune. A kind of shape shifter that takes the form of a fox. She believes Kitsune are on the good side of the war. She was lucky her consort was born in her pack. They were neighbours and best friends since a young age. Their relationship was beautiful and special. In a time when many Kitsune were not able to find their consort James and Dahlia were never without theirs. Then an evil Wraith took James' life and Dahlia's reason for living away along with her capacity to love. The Wendigo found Dahlia in the twisted metal heap that used to be their car, just moments before her soul left her body. He fed his blood to Dahlia and brought her back to his home against her will. Dahlia should have died that day for more reason than one. But for some reason she was getting healthier by the day. Why is she alive? How could she live without her consort James? How was she going to raise their child without her ability to love? Why did the Wendigo save her? Why does he call Dahlia his consort? Most importantly...why does Dahlia want to believe him?

You're just a little birdie, minding your own business-flying around, dodging falling leaves, trying not to get too involved in the messes of the city below. But, oh, the drama! The masked hero and the brooding villain you've been watching for months-yeah, those two? They have a lot of secrets. The hero's perfect, obviously, saving the world and all that. But the villain? Oh, dear. By day, they wear a mask of evil and power, but you've seen what happens when the cape comes off. There's some serious darkness lurking in their private life-self-loathing, quiet pain, and way too many late-night mood swings. But don't worry, the villain's got it under control... or so they think. You thought their love story was one of those sweet "enemies-to-lovers" kind of deals, until you saw the truth from way up here. It's a mess. Betrayal. Anger. Love. Secret identities. A fight that's way more personal than you ever imagined. But hey, that's not your problem, right? You're just a bird. Except, well... Maybe you care. Maybe you're the one who's been flying around, wondering if their messy, secret love story will ever have a happy ending-or if one of them will end up on the wrong side of the city's skyscraper (literally). From your vantage point, it's a little too close for comfort, but hey-no one ever said love was easy, even for villains and heroes. Just try not to get caught in the crossfire, okay?

24 parts Ongoing
Azira's whole world consisted of being a hero. The daughter of the Dynamic Duo, she was destined to fulfill her role as the dutiful daughter in the Heroes Academy. A world where those with superhuman powers are taught to wield their powers for good and change the world. That is until a villain named Scar enters her life and changes her whole perspective on what it truly means to be the good guy. Scar loves her. And knows she loves him-she just doesn't know that yet herself. But she's about to find out. ~Excerpt~ "Why me?" I asked exasperatedly. "You do all of this for me, and why? For what reason?" "That's where you're still wrong, honey," he said darkly. "I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for me. I wanted you, so now you're mine-that's all there is to it. And by being mine, if someone hurts you, they're hurting me. And I am not one to take that disrespect lightly. Do you understand me?" "No." "You will." He knelt next to me, his face hovering over mine, his arms on either side of the machine, caging me beneath his upper body. "I will ruin you-I'll fit you to my mold; I'll take that goody-two-shoes girl you are, and turn her into a force to be reckoned with. One that's mine." I quivered. "All mine." "I..." His proximity had me beyond nervous. My throat constricted as I tried to regain my composure. "Will never be yours." He laughed, his hand caressing my cheek. "You and I both know you already are." *Enemies to lovers (mildly) dark romance* PUBLISHING ALSO ON ROYAL ROAD AS LEELEEACE1

35 parts Ongoing Mature

Dahlia Nightingale has never been good at making friends, or being social at all. I guess social anxiety does that to a person though. Most people think she's a weirdo because of how quiet and to herself she is. But, in all honesty, Dahlia doesn't mind being alone. In fact, she prefers it over having to talk to people. Dahlia's mom died when she was 10, ever since then, her dad hasn't been the same, for obvious reasons. But, he doesn't have the best way of grieving, he's an alcoholic and is never around the house to see or spend time with Dahlia. It's safe to say the great relationship she once had with her father, is now gone. There are two people in all of Nevermore that Dahlia likes to be around, Enid Sinclair and Eugene Ottinger. They're the only company she needs and they actually like her for her. Other than those two, Dahlia is completely by herself. That is, until a certain dark-haired, monotone girl shows up and flips Dahlia's world upside-down. *DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE WEDNESDAY NETFLIX SERIES OR THE CHARACTERS/PLOTS IN THE SERIES, the only character/plot I own is anything that relates to Dahlia Nightingale* Rated mature for strong language, I will not be writing smut, sorry everyone😬
