The Mere Exposure Effect. James Potter
The more an individual is exposed to something, the more they will like it. ------------- Elysia Valenne comes from an old and wealthy pureblood family, deeply entrenched in tradition and high society. However, unlike many of her Slytherin peers, she never subscribed to the ideology that purebloods were superior. While she carries herself with effortless grace, she has a sharp tongue and an even sharper mind, making her a formidable presence in any conversation. The Valennes are known for their secrecy and power, though they prefer influence behind the scenes rather than open allegiance to Voldemort. Because of this, Elysia was raised in an environment of high expectations and strict protection, always being taught that she must be careful about whom she trusts. Her family, especially her father, ensured that she had connections and safety, though this often meant others feared getting too close to her. Despite being a Slytherin, Elysia quickly gained a reputation for being different from the usual crowd-her humor and independence set her apart. She had no interest in blood purity debates and was known for outwitting her classmates, even the likes of Severus Snape and Lucius Malfoy. While some pureblood families respected her for her intelligence and cunning, others were wary of her refusal to align with them. She often butted heads with James Potter in their earlier years-his arrogance annoyed her, and she found his pranks childish. However, over time, their playful rivalry turned into mutual admiration. James saw in Elysia a challenge and an equal, someone who could keep up with his banter and match his wit blow-for-blow. What started as snarky banter and competition slowly shifted into something deeper. Elysia never threw herself at James the way other girls did, and that intrigued him.Complete

Euodia's Sun | Your Omegas Are Mine [Soulmate Reverse Harem]
In a post-apocalyptic world where men are Omegas, and women are Alphas... Crushed by a bus, Quinn should be dead. Instead, she found herself in the body of a fictional character- Euodia, the antagonist in an R21 Boys Love apocalyptic novel featuring vampires, shifters and fairies. A villainess who had been killed by the seven main characters, the Omega kings of the uprising. Quinn knew that she should stay out of their path. That the only way for her to live was to survive in the wastelands-a feat that was not difficult with her newfound ability to cast spells and purchase items from her past. But the kingdom came to realise that Omega men could not survive without an Alpha mate; that children were no longer born; and too many females had been killed in the war between Alphas and Omegas. Quinn should be exempted from the Mating Laws. Nobody cared for a Beta-a human-like Alpha that could never satisfy an Omega. Still, they kidnapped her; made her serve the men. And in the elite halls of Azarius, she found the seven kings who had murdered Euodia in cold blood. Her soulmates. And as much as they hated her, they needed her to survive.
