Peakyblinders 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.

Lillian was the girl Polly Gray raised. Michael was the son she lost. For seven years, Lillian was a Shelby, the living embodiment of a promise made to her dead mother. Then Michael Gray came home, and suddenly she was just the substitute. She was supposed to hate him for stealing her place. He was supposed to resent her for living the life that should have been his. But in the smoke-filled rooms and stolen glances, they found something else: something dangerous and utterly consuming. .......... His gaze was heavy. "Don't look at me like that, Lilly," he warned, his voice a low rumble that did traitorous things to her insides. "As if you're not looking at me the same way."

At eighteen, Cora Shelby is the untouchable darling of the Peaky Blinders. Kept strictly in the shadows of her brothers' violent empire, she is the family's carefully guarded secret. But when the Black Hand descends on the family, the Shelbys are forced to flee their mansions and return to the mud of Small Heath to survive. Tommy's desperation brings in mercenaries: Aberama Gold and his lethal, prizefighter son, Bonnie. Savage, bruised, and devastatingly charming, Bonnie is everything Cora has been sheltered from. To Aberama, Cora is a distraction that will get his son killed. To Tommy, Bonnie is just a hired fist who has no business breathing the same air as his baby sister. But in the claustrophobic, smoke-filled rooms of a family at war, the electric pull between the gypsy fighter and the mafia princess is instantaneous. And catastrophic. Because in a vendetta where one wrong move means a bullet, falling for a Shelby might just be the prettiest poison of them all.

Eleanor Shelby didn't bluff, didn't charm, didn't play games. She didn't need to. Being the youngest Shelby-by barely a year beneath Finn-never made her soft, and it certainly never made her weak. If anything, it carved something sharper into her. Where others underestimated her, Eleanor thrived. She moved fast, spoke bluntly, and acted before doubt ever had the chance to settle in. Reckless, some would say. Fearless, others whispered. The truth sat somewhere in between.

"Don't care if he's guilty, Don't care if he's not; He's good and he's bad, And he's all that I've got." She grew up watching them, fearing them. A young girl in Birmingham, being told to stay away from the Shelby family at whatever cost. Whispering their name as if they'd hear her, and knowing even then that if she were to end up caught up in the lot that she'd end up dead. But that didn't stop the lad with the piercing blue eyes from thinking that she was the most beautiful creature in the world. The first time he'd ever seen her, he knew that there would seldom be a girl that could ever catch his eye just as she did. And he was right. She remained the apple of his eye for years and years, never saying much to her, knowing that she hated him for who he was and what he did. He didn't mind, though. He hated himself, too. Until one day, one instant, brought them together in a way that neither of them could ever foresee or control. A wedding. cover creds to: @mxklson !!

"I like you, Thomas Shelby. If you weren't a murderous gangster, we might be friends." "And if you didn't whisk out knives and threaten to cut my neck. I think we might be friends, too." [ Peaky Blinders 1-2 ] [ Book 1 of 3 ] cover by @riosmemoirs

In the wake of Grace's death, Thomas Shelby is a shell of a man-colder, more dangerous, and utterly dead inside. To cement a vital alliance in Mayfair, he enters a transactional marriage with Cataleya Lyon, the sixteen-year-old "Blasian" daughter of a powerful mogul. ​Abused by her father's household and traded like a commodity, Cataleya enters Birmingham as a silent victim. But beneath her innocence lies a genius for numbers and a sharp tongue. In the smoke of Small Heath, the girl who once asked for permission to speak becomes the iron-willed heart of the Shelby empire.

Dorothy Monroe is a petite woman with a heart too big for her chest. She's pure, kind, she looked at the world and determined all the colours of nature were miracles and needed to be remembered. She's loved photography ever since her father brought a camera home and even had a gift with the newly designed lenses ever since she could wrap her small hands around the clunks of metal. Thomas Shelby: gangster; and war hero; he reads the devils script as if it were the morning newspaper - the list will go on. I don't need to say much more, you already know him. The Shelby family, as part of Tommy's expansion plan, bought a large area of the woods on the outskirts of Small Heath, far away from the Birmingham smog, there they built safe houses and kept heavy machinery; maybe even once they kept a large crate of stolen guns, supposedly belonging to the Government. Unbeknownst to Dorothy, who stumbled around the woods (a bulky camera in hand), she had explored the woods many times, taking photos of all the things that shined bright enough, but had never come across the peculiar buildings that held many dangers. That is, of course, until she knocks upon one of the doors, ready to give an earful to whoever had built over this precious patch of land, only to come face to face with one Thomas Shelby. -loosely follows the plot of season 1- *disclaimer* I do not own the Peaky Blinders or any of Steven Knights characters, only the story of Dorothy and her own plot line. This trope is cliche and overused, but idc, I like it.
