CEO, Tobias Voight, is a man who is quickly running out of time: he's behind on taxes. Not only is he behind on taxes, the security company he runs is on the verge of bankruptcy - unbeknownst to the employees. 

His plan? Sabotage: one man stands while another man falls.

Using the media as a distraction to divert the government's attention away from him, he broadcasts a video over major news channels to direct a message to an unsuspecting Sylvia Harlow. He reveals that he's kidnapped her family. What is more, he places a huge bounty over them for their rescue.

The public is told to make no mistake that this is a kidnapping/hostage situation so if anyone sees Sylvia and tries to help her should know that they will be kidnapped too - sparking fear into everyone.

Frightened and confused, Sylvia is forced to race against time in order to save her family. However, Sylvia has been feeling really strange lately and doesn't know if there is anyone she can trust to help her out. 

One by one, details come to light as Sylvia embarks on a twisted journey to find the missing pieces connected to her true identity. All the while thinking that she is alone, she meets a person who must undergo a similar task, becoming a partner to confide in and to love her for who she is despite it all.

A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancé left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.

Kira Villarreal was just a regular seventeen-year-old, living an ordinary life in a sleepy town-until the night that shattered everything. What was supposed to be a fun party with her three best friends quickly descends into chaos when gunshots ring out, and in the middle of the panic, something unimaginable happens. As a bullet hurtles toward her friend, time slows, and with a surge of raw power, Kira stops the shot in midair. That night, Kira and her friends' lives change forever. They soon discover they're far from normal teenagers. Each of them harbors a unique, untapped power, and together, they're something far more significant-the "Keys," beings destined to unlock the gateway between the human and magical realms. But with great power comes even greater danger. Hunted by ancient enemies, rogue sorcerers, and forces that want to use-or destroy-them, Kira and her friends are thrust into a world of magic and peril, where every choice they make could tip the balance of two worlds. As they grow into their powers, they must learn to trust each other and face challenges that will test their bond, their courage, and their very identities. Each revelation uncovers a new layer of the mystery behind their existence, but the deeper they go, the darker it gets. Old loyalties are questioned, secrets are unearthed, and sacrifices will have to be made. Can Kira keep her friends-and herself-alive as the weight of saving both worlds falls on their shoulders? Or will the darkness close in, forcing them to choose between survival and their humanity? With action, unexpected humor, and devastating twists at every turn, this is Kira's journey, where magic, danger, and friendship collide in ways no one saw coming.
