Surrender // Steve Harrington x Reader
She didn't know any better. Years of being raised by the evil entity that was once Henry Creel skewed her view of the world she once lived in. When Y/N is sent by him from the Upside Down to infiltrate those that so tediously continue to thwart his plans, she ends up finding something with someone that she never could have expected. Will she betray the one who raised her, who helped her escape that horrific lab? Or will she help him burn it all to the ground? One thing was for sure. There was only one thing that might change her mind... She just doesn't doesn't even know he exists... Yet. ( Set from the beginning of S4 once flashbacks cease but reader has been part of prior Vecna plans. Reader is over 18/older than El to fit with Steve without it being weird and has powers; is 002 in this story so assume the bullies in the show were 003 upwards. Long-ish intro with flashbacks to try and make it make sense lmfao but only a few chapters. Please read TW's before reading and let me know if there's anything I missed. TW: Violence, brainwashing, death, both mental and physical abuse, manipulation, smut in later chapters, fem!Reader, angst )Complete
Meet Me By The Swings
After the events of Vecna, Will Byers and Mike Wheeler have grown closer than ever before. Perhaps it was not seeing each other for a year, or maybe the tension in the air during their long car ride, but Mike and El are no longer an item and Will's confusion over his best friend continues to grow... *** Updates every Tuesday and Friday (I promise I'm trying to be consistent but school is super time consuming!!!) *** I do not own any of these characters or the plot etc. All creds to the Duffer Brothers. *** Set after Season 4, partially vol. 2 compliant. *** Completed: 08/11/2022Complete

Stranger Things x Female Reader
Welcome to Hawkins, Indiana! (This is a Stranger Things x Female Reader with you thrown in the mix. This is only season 1, so only little romance is involved with the kids. It will be a Mike x Female reader, but eventually things will be switching up!) **DISCLAIMER: I don't own Stranger Things, nor the characters/plot!!** *The only thing I DO own is (Y/n) and any interaction with (Y/n) are all my ideas* **ITS SUPER CLOSE TO THE SERIES. (I understand this is going to be scene for scene, but I am the writer, and this is what I enjoy)** You woke up one day in the adoption center with fuzzy memory. You can only remember bits and pieces of what happened when you got to the adoption center. However, when you woke up, you saw a boy looking at you curiously with a woman who seems to be his mother. His hair was super curly, and when he smiled, you realized he had missing teeth, and he dressed in the 80s. They adopted you, and your name is (Y/n) Henderson. You befriend Dustin Henderson, age 13, and you're 12. You go to Hawkins Middle school. It took a while for you to settle in and finally talk. They provided you a house with fresh clothes, food, and treated you like their own. You also befriend Mike Wheeler, Will Byers, and Lucas Sinclair and join their DnD group. Things start to get a little weird after Will disappears, and now you're sucked into an investigation with your friends, hoping to find what memory you've lost.Complete

Devil in White
DARK ROMANCE WARNING In a small town named Hawkins, stood an eerie lab. In that lab, held one of the most dangerous test subjects to come across. Isolation. Torture. Over time, he stood still in front of a mirror, practicing a smile that could never reach the eye. Patience. Time. The clock is ticking, and it's almost near. She had made the mistake of accepting a small job interview as a nurse. A naive nurse, indeed. But unfortunately, she was too curious in the parts of the job Brenner held from her. Secrets. Imprisonment. They crossed paths that first day. A pining obsession settled down in the depths of his mind. Her sweet smile too captivating to ignore, showing obvious unawareness. And he couldn't wait to destroy it. Hello again, my Henry lovers! This little short story has been settled in my mind for WEEKS. It's not going to be as long as my other books are, and it's not going to be as sweet either 👀 I want to warn EVERYONE when I say that this book is going to be on the dark side. I know I normally make Henry's characters on the sweeter side, but this one is going to be anything but. I'm going to write him in the way that I think he would actually be. WARNING This book will have EXPLICIT sexual content, language, blood, murder, torture, past sexual abuse (don't worry, I won't go into too much detail on it) HEED THESE WARNINGS This book will not be like my others, so please, if anything of the above bothers you, do not continue. I will put trigger warnings on chapters that mention sexual abuse, as I know that is very difficult to read. I DO NOT own any of the stranger things characters, or storyline that resembles the show. I hope you enjoy my dark mindComplete

The Power of Love
Eleven wasn't able to free herself in time to save Max. In fact she was only able to free herself after hearing Mike confess his love but what if he had confessed to her before she was already off fighting Vecna? What if it gave her the strength to free herself earlier? or a Vecna doesn't get the chance to bend Max like she's a bendy straw fanfiction. -(I don't own nor did I create Stranger Things)Complete
