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.

His Beloved Dahlia | 18+ (His Beloved Series #2) by Luna_Moon135

Dahlia, who was mistakenly arrested, somehow found herself in the same prison cell with the most dangerous prisoner in the empire. Killian, who was the strongest knight of the fallen enemy kingdom, was kept as a prisoner after his homeland's defeat in the war. He was known as the crazy madman who ruthlessly slaughtered hundreds of men in the battlefield. He was all the things one would be terrified of when heard. The story used to scare children to sleep. A killer A lunatic A madman who laughed while slaughtering his enemies A man who only lusted for blood. Those were the names attached to him. Valuing her dear life, Dahlia decided to earn his interest by pretending to like him. After all, he was known to spare interesting things, especially women, according to the rumors she heard, that is. However, her act of pretending to like him was no use at all. The more she fawned over him, the more he threatened her. Eventually, the time came when she was finally free to go but couldn't bid him a proper farewell. And years later... "Why did you suddenly disappear that day?" Never did she expect she would encounter him again. "Do you know that I've almost gone mad searching for you?" He said with his deep calloused voice. And though her body was frozen in his arms, she gulped as he leaned into her ears. "You told me before that you'd marry me once we got out of that prison." A breath hitched in her throat. "Aren't you going to keep your words, my beloved?" He said. It seemed like he had no intention of letting her go.

Guide to Being a Superhero...'s BFF (Guide to Being, Novella One) by TCKauthor

Friendship doesn't change when your bestie becomes a fire-wielding champion, but a lot of other stuff does. Like having to put 'kidnapped by idiots with powers' on your weekly schedule. And enduring said idiots' cliché monologues while inwardly roasting their interior decorating skills. Hey, I'm Mira. That's right, Miracle Simmons. BFF to America's favorite superhero celeb; Firebird. (Bu-bye, Chris Evens, your reign is over.) You've probably heard of her, but not of me. That's okay! I'm her bestie! It's my job to make sure she doesn't burn herself out fighting morons, keep her focused in her actual real life, and try to show her that she doesn't have to pick every fight. Uh-huh, I have it way worse than her. Anyway, if you're reading this, you are most likely a newbie superhero bestie. Or a salty television producer. Or my mom. (Hi, Mom.) Whoever you are; buckle up, and enjoy my tale of supervillains who aren't villains-or super, superheroes who don't want to work anymore, and the rotten media that started it all. And me. The wanna-be normal engineering student who God decided had to be kidnapped to get a date.

Can We Work? (Wednesday Addams x fem!OC) by ilovemarvel112

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😬

Masks are Greater than Sunglasses [ COMPLETE ] by all-the-heroes

"Hey, in every Superhero movie when they are in disguise that's what they wear and no one recognizes them." ***** Rya Morgan hates Superheroes. Well, maybe not hates. But in a world where everyone adores the enhanced, Rya's avid distrust makes her an outsider in a sea of mega fans.

Too bad her best friend Trey Roberts also happens to be the newest member of the League of Heroes. He might be new to the whole Superhero thing, but he's not going to let Rya get hurt on his watch. Unfortunately, that leaves just one option, for Trey's mysterious partner LP to intervene. For a Hero, he sure does have an off-the-books way of working that causes he and Rya to clash instantly. The more ingrained into her life the Supers become the more desperate Rya is to figure out who's targeting her, and more importantly, who LP is beneath the mask. Rya is willing to do anything for the truth. Anything, that is, except reliving the memories she's tried so hard to erase. ***** | First Place | The Pizza Awards ***** Warnings : Mild language, Mentions of depression and suicide
