"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players."
But in Piltover and Zaun, the roles are cruelly cast.

Detective Caitlyn Kiramman is no stranger to solving grisly crimes, but a new wave of Shimmer-related "suicides" pushes her beyond the limits of logic and endurance. Beneath her sharp intellect lies an unspoken reliance on stimulants, a crutch she refuses to name.

Her investigation leads her deep into the shadowed depths of Zaun, where she encounters Vi-a pit fighter, bouncer, and ex-con weighed down by guilt and a near-fatalistic streak of self-destruction. Distrust ignites between them, but so does something deeper, an inexplicable pull between two women shaped by worlds intent on breaking them.

As their cities spiral while the body count rises, Caitlyn and Vi untangle years of shared pain and vices long hidden.

"Vengeance is in my heart, death in my hand, Blood and revenge are hammering in my head."

Vi took a step closer, voice teasing. "Why does it bother you, hmm?" Caitlyn hated how her heart sped up. She looked away, grumbling, "Because... because you're supposed to be loyal to me." Vi's smirk faltered slightly. Caitlyn crossed her arms tighter. "I mean-not that we ever had anything. But still! You-You can't just..." She trailed off, biting her lip. Vi studied her for a long moment. "Caitlyn." Caitlyn refused to meet her gaze. Vi sighed, softer now. "I'm single, okay?" Caitlyn swallowed. Vi hesitated before continuing. "But yeah, I... I do love someone." Caitlyn hiccupped, rubbing at her eyes furiously. Vi reached for her, concerned. "Caitlyn, why are you-" "I knew it!" Caitlyn blurted, voice wobbling. Vi blinked. "Knew what?" Caitlyn sniffled. "You do love someone! And-and now I have to compete with them?" Vi opened her mouth-then shut it, utterly baffled. "I-what?" Caitlyn grabbed Vi's hands. "Just-just love me instead!" ---- Caitlyn Kiramman has everything-fame, fortune, and a career that keeps the world watching. But with the spotlight comes danger, and when a series of anonymous threats escalate, her security team hires Violet, a former underground fighter with a no-nonsense attitude and a past she refuses to talk about. Violet is everything Caitlyn isn't-rough, unpredictable, and infuriatingly stubborn. From their first meeting, sparks fly, but not the good kind. Caitlyn finds her bodyguard impossible, while Violet sees Caitlyn as just another spoiled celebrity. But as danger looms closer, forced proximity turns tension into something neither of them expected-lingering touches, stolen glances, and a protectiveness that goes beyond duty. When Caitlyn is put in real danger, Violet will have to face the truth: guarding Caitlyn was never just a job. But in a world where Caitlyn shines brightest under flashing cameras and Violet prefers the shadows, can they find a way to stand together?
Fight or Flight ( Vi  Arcane x OC fantasy novel) by MikiTikiTavi
27 parts Ongoing Mature
After a horrific accident involving the death of her entire family, Zephyra Ashcroft was taken away to Stillwater prison at the young age of fourteen. She didn't mean to set the house ablaze, she didn't even know how it happened. All she knew was that her brother played a cruel prank, and she was so angry that her fist exploded into fire. She would spend the next seven years of her life in an isolated concrete cell, unable to socialize, hone in her abilities, or even so much as read a book. One day, a strange man came to bail her out. He taught her about her powers, told her the history of her heritage, and finally, laid a heavy burden on her that would change her life forever. --- A fighting spirit with little to live for, Vi was bailed out of Stillwater Prison general population by an Enforcer named Caitlyn. She made a deal to absolve her sentence in the hope of finding Vi's long lost sister on a mission from her peers. With a new hope in her heart, Vi agreed and joined the Enforcer on the hunt for her baby sister. Soon, the pair would learn that there was a much bigger threat in Piltover than Jinx... but whose side were they on? --- The two women meet in a shared moment of vulnerability. Both Vi and Zephyra learn exactly how similar they really are to one another, creating an instant spark between them. Growing closer and closer, the pair begin to fall quickly for one another. Unfortunate circumstances test their trust, loyalty, and more as they battle through separate moral trials. They soon face bigger problems than the both of them combined. Can they each face their own demons while simultaneously remaining on the same team? --- Tragedy. Love. Regret. Misery. Passion. Forgiveness.
