Lingering Temptations.

Arabella Hastings and John Shelby were like lost angels, navigating the twists and turns of their own personal journeys. Each one carries their own set of dreams, hopes, and struggles, trying to find their way in this vast world.

Arabella's journey back to her old stomping grounds was filled with a mix of excitement and nerves. She couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to see John again after all this time. As fate would have it, their paths crossed once more.

This encounter was a turning point for Arabella. It made her reflect on her past, appreciate the present, and embrace the unknown future. Sometimes, endings can be beginnings in disguise, and only time will reveal the true outcome of Arabella and John's story.

For what is love without suffering?

Nothing.

Harvey Ellis grew up in Small Heath, hearing the tales of the Peaky Blinders. Having been friends with the second youngest Shelby brother, Harvey finds himself becoming a Blinder. What he didn't know was that this would only anger his father more than he already was. Things got worse for him - with his confusion regarding his sexuality, it led to him seeking comfort in the only sister of the Shelby family after she cleaned his wounds. After one night spent together, Ada falls pregnant. Frightened, Ada begs that he stays despite not loving him. It is then that she finds out why he is hesitant to do so. Knowing it was a mistake from both ends, Harvey agreed to stay after Ada said she would keep his secret. And despite their attempts at being parents, Ada can't help but notice the way Harvey cannot let John Shelby go. And the way John looks at Harvey without even realising. Forcing herself to push it aside, she begins to understand properly what is happening. No words spoken - many exchanged glances - one story to be told.

Although she shared the same brunette locks as her sister Ada and the same blue eyes as her brother Tommy, she did not share the same attitudes. Francesca was an anxious girl. And that only worsened when her brothers left for war. Her second eldest brother, Tommy, was a God in her eyes. She idolised him. Why? Nobody knew. But there was something about him. And for her.. Tommy loved her like she was his own daughter. They had a bond not even the strongest of men could destroy. They were cut from the same cloth. 𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐀𝐑, - Francesca finds that her closest and only friend, George, a boy who came from the richer side of Birmingham, had returned from the countryside. He was the type of boy all the girls would fawn over. Golden hair and blue eyes. Except, he didn't care for any of them. He cared for his best friend: Francesca Shelby. Or - Frances, as he called her. He was her only friend. Being older and, well, liked by most, he found it was his duty to look after her during such a hostile time. But they seemed to be blind to the fact that they were more than friends. In some way, they were more. They didn't know it but everybody else did.
