Shelby Stories

"I know you are a man who has lost a great deal, Mr. Shelby. And I know that fear is the only language you think Birmingham speaks. But I have spent ten years with the Sisters; your shadows don't frighten me nearly as much as the thought of a child going without a coat tomorrow." She is a woman of cloth and conviction. He is a man of lead and whiskey. Mabel is the lead teacher at the Grace Shelby Institute, a place built on the sins of the Shelby family. She isn't under any illusions about who pays her wages; she's seen the blood on the notes. But while the rest of Small Heath trembles at the click of iron-shod heels in the night, Mabel simply keeps her needle moving. When Thomas Shelby wanders into her classroom at two in the morning, he's looking for the silence his own mind refuses to give him. Instead, he finds a woman who refuses to be his victim or his devotee. To Tommy, she is a sanctuary he doesn't deserve. To Mabel, he is a soul that no amount of prayer can fix-but that doesn't mean she won't try. A story of faith, fire, and the mending of a man who thought he was beyond repair.

Matilda Preston is the picture of 1919 high-society perfection. As the wife of Inspector Campbell's ruthlessly ambitious right-hand man, she wears expensive dresses, pours tea into porcelain cups, and hides her husband's bruises beneath high-collared lace. But Julian made one fatal mistake: he brought her back to Birmingham. Before the riches, she was Tilly Walsh-a wild, barefoot girl who ran the muddy alleyways of Watery Lane. And John Shelby has never forgotten her. Now, caught in the crossfire of a brutal war between the police and the Peaky Blinders, Tilly is playing a deadly game. By day, she is the perfect copper's wife. By night, she is risking the hangman's noose for stolen moments in the shadows with a razor-wielding gangster who is more than willing to burn the city down to set her free. Julian promised her safety. John promised her ruin. Only one of them was telling the truth.

"He wasn't always this cold. The war had turned him into a shell of his old self. He's got demons hiding behind that foot thick wall of strength, just hoping to keep a brave face on and his emotions at bay." OR In which Thomas Shelby falls in love with Anna Clarke I own my own characters. 11/26/21 - [12/16/25- ]

𝐒𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝟏𝟗𝟐𝟎𝐬 was ruled by the Shelby family - or more so their gang. The Peaky Blinders were the infamous gang who earned their respect through the fear of the people. With the blades sewn into their flat caps and the weapons tucked into their jackets, people bowed their heads when passing them in the streets. You were considered lucky to have not had a run in with any of the three elder Shelby brothers. Arthur was the eldest. He was known for his fighting. You would often find him in the ring against somebody who was not his size. He went mad during the war and his return was nothing hit a relief for his mind. But when thinking he had finally escaped the war, one had started in his head. Arthur Shelby was his own enemy. Thomas was the second eldest - the most feared. He had a head for business and more common sense than his older brother. He had icy eyes which very rarely softened at the sight of anything. He was known for his trait of being unmerciful and careless. Despite being the second eldest, he was the brother who held the power. The brother who controlled the rest of them. John was the youngest of the three and arguably the softest. With his wonky smile and cheeky remarks, many of the girls in Small Heath found themselves falling at his feet. He would often find himself in trouble for acting childish. He didn't care too much for the business of the gang. He cared for the respect it brought their name. He enjoyed the thrill. And then you had John's twin sister - Francesca. Known for being one of the only Shelby siblings who seemed to laugh at Thomas. Her sister, Ada, being exactly the same. Francesca found that her brothers were ridiculous - too big for their boots as she'd say. Though she liked to use their name to get herself out of trouble. Francesca was often reckless and lacked the awareness one needed for the streets they lived in. She was her mother's daug

„Ivy, bitte!" sie blieb stehen. Nur für einen Moment drehte sie sich ein letztes Mal um.„Weißt du was, John?" Ivy's Stimme war jetzt ruhig. Zu ruhig. „Ich habe dich wirklich geliebt." Ein Zittern durchlief sie. „So sehr, dass ich sogar meine Familie verraten hätte." Ein kurzer Atemzug.„Fahr zur Hölle." Dann verschwand Ivy in der Dunkelheit und ließ ihn zurück. So wie er sie. *Flashback ende* Fünf Jahre. Fünf verdammte Jahre hatte sie ihn nicht gesehen und doch stand er in voller Pracht vor ihr. Sein Blick brandte sich nun in ihre Haut. Sie hassten sich. Tief im inneren wusste Kate das sie noch etwas für ihn übrig hatte doch für das was er getan hatte, hasste sie ihn. Wird sich dieser hass jemals legen? #Enemiestolovers Alle Rechte gehören den Machern von Peaky Bliders außer meine Charaktere: Ivy und wie ich diese in die Geschichte einbaue.

She had jet black hair and the most stunning blue eyes. Her mother couldn't help but fathom at the striking resemblance that Orla and her older brother Tommy held, therefore, Tommy was to name her.
