Christine is nothing but excited for senior year, until a masked man walks into her classroom and calls himself their teacher. Erik Destler and Christine Daae. There's nothing but frustration between the two - at first - but with Christine's caring nature, they become friends...at least, that's what they tell other people so they don't get into trouble. Christine has never felt this way about a teacher...nonetheless an older man...or any man for that matter. But there's something about him, his music, his voice, the way he pleasures her in indescribable ways...or maybe it's his past that intrigues her. He has hidden secrets of his past that he is hesitant to tell her, and with good reason. And once everything was going great, that's when everything goes wrong. With so much romance in the air and one of Erik's old flames coming back into his life, how will their love survive?

MY NIGHTINGALE, phantom of the opera
Irène Monet was taught to hide her voice, for beauty and talent such as hers was meant to be silenced. Then she heard it -- a voice from the shadows, treasuring every note as though it were salvation. Raimond Rochechouart wishes to make her his bride. Persistent as ever, he offers her safety, status, and a life without risk -- but also a cage. He sees only the surface of her. But in the shadows, a masked man -- the Phantom of the Opera -- sees everything: her sorrow, her fragility, her loneliness, and the voice she was forbidden to share. ___ *Updates every week!* Erik Destler (Phantom) x F!OC #1: #madamegiry, #thephantomoftheopera, #poto #2: #thephantomoftheopera, #erik #3: #poto
A Second Chance in Love (Erik X OC)
The great fire, it cost Erik everything he ever knew. His house, his only love... everything. He roamed the streets for almost four years, staying hidden in the shadows he made himself familiar with only to find his way back to the abandon and burnt opera house. He stayed there and the first few months were nothing but peace, silence and his inner demons ripping him apart. He had no power for life anymore, no muse to write songs and compose miracles. He simply spent his days looking at the cave walls, not able to think, to see, to feel. All that changed when his ear perked the sound of a child's laughter, informing him of people entering his house but he had no power to kick them out. He saw no reason too. The Phantom was dead after all. He assumed they were the new owners, a word he heard a few times during the past 2 weeks. He mentally scoffed, wondering what they would do with the destroyed opera. Open it again? Fix it? He could care less. All he wanted was his solitude. #1 in phantomoftheopera (10/3/21)Complete
Between Mirrors and Roses (A Phantom of the Opera Fanfiction) ✓
The life of an ordinary girl is turned upside down when she is transported into her favorite musical, "The Phantom of the Opera," in the place of the elegant heroine. Negotiating life in 19th-century Paris is challenging enough without a diva scheming for leads, a sarcastic Persian's input, and two very different men battling for her affections! Should she stay faithful to the plot of the story or rewrite history? Should she choose a safe path with a reliable husband or risk her future following her mysterious Phantom? Told from the points of view of Erik - the Phantom - and the newly-made Christine, this story follows them both as they work through their respective demons to find love in the person that is a little different from all their imaginings.

A True Angel
Ok let's see. Phantom of the Opera fan fic, ummm, what else? I don't own any of the characters except the reader and her brother, also their parents and a woman by the name of Chevrolet Boucher. All credits to the respective owners. Love the musical and original novel. Erik x reader here we go. You gotta read the story to know what happens btw. Credit to my friend Pastelgaykid for helping me with the basics of the story. Like the parents back story, ages,cause to make it more less pedoey, we changed the phantoms age. I KNOW, I know, but really, I'm not gonna write a story about a 40 year old man falling in love with 19 year old. P.S. I don't care which phantom you choose as long as it is the half masked Erik's cause I haven't finished the book. Alright! Enjoy!!Complete

Krissy, your typical high school girl auditions in the world's most famous plays 'The Phantom of the Opera'. Nothing is as easy as it seems. Krissy ends up performing with someone else portraying the phantom. With every twist and turn that comes her way, she must discover who this phantom really is. Problem is, can she do it before opening night? Her friend's lives may depend on it. What does he want and how does he know so much about her past? **I DO NOT own the cover photo!
