Short Description of Shattered Steel
In the wake of a devastating explosion, shy and reserved high school sophomore Nova Hayes is saved by an emergency cybernetic procedure that transforms her into something beyond human. Grappling with her new identity and the challenge of returning to normal teenage life, Nova struggles to hide her enhancements while coming to terms with her fears and insecurities.
When a rising wave of threats jeopardizes her school and city, Nova discovers her enhanced body gives her abilities far beyond what she ever imagined. With the support of Marcus, a senior who rescued her from the wreckage, she begins to embrace her new identity-not as a monster, but as a protector. However, her journey is not without sacrifice, danger, and an emerging connection with Marcus, who may prove to be her anchor in a world that feels increasingly alien.

π©πππ πΆππ ππ π¨ π³πππππ π°π...πΊπππππ Nova knew exactly what she was doing. Every glance, every offhand comment laced with something just shy of inappropriate-she loved pushing him. And Professor Steele? He was ice in a tailored suit. Distant. Disdainful. A master of dismissing her with a single look. But Nova wasn't blind-he may have played the role of the untouchable professor, but there was something in his eyes when she got too close. The line they danced around for weeks-taunting it, toeing it, pretending it didn't matter-shattered beneath the weight of a single moment. It was gentle. It was careful. It was the kind of night that branded itself into her skin. And Nova-the girl who always played it cool-found herself spiraling. Obsession bloomed like a bruise beneath the surface, spreading fast and deep.Complete

Lessons of the Heart (TeacherxStudent - wlw)
It was never supposed to mean anything. Just a fleeting moment. A beautiful mistake, soaked in midnight and quiet desperation. One night to forget the rules. To taste freedom in the arms of a stranger. To let go without thinking of the morning after. No goodbyes. No consequences. Only touches that lingered too long, and memories etched into skin like whispers. But fate doesn't play fair. Because when Mia stepped into her classroom that Monday morning, time didn't just stop. It held its breath. And there she was. The stranger from that night. But not draped in shadows this time. No, now she stood in the light. Composed. Commanding. Off-limits. Her new English teacher. Their eyes met. A flash of recognition. A pause too long to be innocent. Mia's heart stumbled in her chest. The room faded, voices dulled, the world narrowed to just her. The woman she wasn't supposed to see again. The woman who now held her future in the palm of her hand. And maybe, just maybe, still remembered everything.Complete

After a mission gone devastatingly wrong and a rampage that made even the Guardians fear her, her memories were erased.
