    Summary

    Penelope finds that she can no longer publish under Portia Featherington's nose.

    Violet Bridgerton can no longer tolerate her unmarried children rampaging through good society and Benedict pays for his brothers' mistakes.

    Genevieve Delacroix believes she can kill many a bird with a single marriage.

    __

    “It really would take far too long for your thoughts to catch up with mine.”

    “You’re talking about me taking a wife again?” Benedict studied Genevieve’s all too-knowing smile. “You mean…” He looked down the hall. “You’re suggesting I marry Penelope?”

    “Am I as mad as Lord Fife?” Genevieve asked warningly.

    Summary

    “Let’s get married.”

    The bite mark hidden beneath Izuku’s hoodie throbbed in response. A painful reminder of that day back in Aldera Junior High—a scuffle gone too far, Katsuki’s mouth pressed over his mating gland.

    Katsuki had just graduated from U.A. He was about to become an official sidekick under Best Jeanist.

    The spotlight was coming for him.

    A scandal—especially one involving bonding during adolescence—could derail everything. Japan still held very traditional views on alpha and omega dynamics. If the public believed a rising pro hero had recklessly bitten an omega classmate—had promptly ditched that omega and never taken responsibility—the backlash could be severe.

    “Yes, Kacchan.”

    Summary

    When Colin opened the door for Penelope that day, he hadn’t realized that his life as he knew it was about to change. As he took her coat, it hadn’t occurred to him that he didn’t have all the time in the world to smile at her or enjoy her smiles or to jokingly battle with Eloise over who would have the honor of escorting her to the dining room where everyone was gathered. No, Penelope was his, ever since childhood, and he couldn’t conceive of a world where he didn’t have his best friend.

    Summary

    “God, this was—people were so much easier to let down when I had a ring on my finger.”

    Buck doesn’t exactly reel back, but he does shift his weight. “You think that would help?”

    Eddie shrugs, then clenches his jaw, touching at his ring finger, the ghost of the calming weight wrapped around it. “It did before.”

    “Then I’ll buy you a ring,” Buck says. All normal. “You won’t have to deal with anyone flirting again. How about that?”

     

    or: Eddie keeps getting hit on at work. Buck buys him a ring so it’ll never happen again. Platonically, of course.

    Summary

    It was only then she remembered Rio didn’t understand a word she was saying.

    “Oh…” Agatha made a hole with one hand and stuck her index finger in it with the other. “Consummating…right?”

    Rio giggled. “Yes.”

    Agatha found herself smiling. “But we,” she gestured between them before she made two holes. “So how…?”

    “I show you? If-”

    “Yes,” Agatha interrupted. “Por favor.”

    Rio nodded. “Okay.”

    OR: A marriage of convenience. Spain and England both benefit a great deal if Princess Agatha Elizabeth Harkness and Princesa Rio Emilia Vidal wed. So they do. But this is the 1800s, love is not a necessity for marriage...but who knows...they might find it.

    “I heard the men calling you the Lioness," Jaime said. "When we first met, I thought you a shy, lumbering creature – but it seems you’ve learned how to roar. ”

    Summary

    Swanwick gave Bruce a level, unamused look. "Mr. Wayne," he said. "Please tell me you know why you're here."

    Bruce shrugged. "Won the lottery, and first-place prize is the government marries me off to an alien."

    (Or: in a universe where Krypton took an extra thirty-odd years to implode, Kal-El was sent to Earth as an adult, in advance of the ship containing the only other surviving Kryptonians; and a quirk of Kryptonian law means negotiating refuge, potential resettlement, and an alliance with the Kryptonians in general is dependent on marriage between a Kryptonian and a human. Bruce did what it took to make sure that that human would be him, instead of some poor unprepared civilian—but his efforts to learn more about the aliens, what they want and why they're here, and how, if necessary, to kill them ... don't go the way he's expecting them to.)

    Summary

    With the nation struggling to keep humanity on its last legs, you sneak away to join the military in hopes of bettering its chances of success in the war against the Titans. Your father, however, is displeased with your decision, and he flexes his political power as an esteemed lord and nobleman in an attempt to bring you back home.

    You want nothing to do with him, of course, but your freedom from familial ties also depends on how keen command is on keeping you in the Scout Regiment.

    You start by building bonds with Levi -- initially, he seems to loathe the fact that you're a member of the aristocracy. When things take turn for the worse with your abusive father, however, he proves reliable, while Erwin proposes a strategy, insane as it is, that you can't refuse.

    [Reader x Levi] is the ultimate pairing, but there will be a significant [Reader x Erwin] detour, a love triangle of sorts. Your heart bleeds for both Erwin and Levi, as they discover themselves, brothers in arms, falling for the same woman.

    Summary

    In the balloon, Zuko hadn't let himself think about what would happen if the Avatar's group turned him away, but the cold reality sinks into his bones like the mountain air, and he trembles where he stands. There's nowhere to go and everywhere to go all at once, and he promised them, promised himself, promised Uncle his repentance for Ba Sing Se. He promised to make it up to Katara.

    The only question is how he's supposed to do that without teaching the Avatar firebending.

    (Or: Winning a war is hard. Atonement is harder).

    Summary

    Lucius Malfoy wants something from Hermione Granger. She wants to find out how far he's willing to go to get it.

    _____

    "His eyes were mistrustful and such a sharp, cold grey that, as they ran down her body, they left a strange tingling in their wake. Hermione felt like he was attempting to unpick the very threads of her.

    Perhaps he managed it because, within seconds, Hermione saw it – a troubling flash of comprehension. Recognition that a move was being made against him.

    That he was being challenged.

    It was at that moment that Hermione experienced the unpleasant, stomach-twisting realisation that, while her wine had emboldened her, it had also, perhaps, impaired her judgement. Because, as much as Lucius Malfoy disliked getting his hands dirty, she strongly suspected that he loved a challenge."

    Summary

    Like the downfall of many civilizations, traitors within the royal inner circles poison the minds of kings and queens. Castrum Kremnos was no exception. It has steadily declined over the years. King Eurypon's madness has pushed the kingdom to the brink of collapse, and the ongoing armed conflict with the Ohkeman Kingdom was accelerating their destruction.

    In desperation, the mighty kingdom called for an armistice—not merely a ceasefire, but a resolution to end the conflict altogether. They proposed an alliance between their kingdoms. News of this spread throughout Amphoreus overnight. Two of the strongest kingdoms were forming an alliance that would significantly alter the course of history. An agreement of blood needed to be established between the two kingdoms. Castrum Kremnos was required to offer up a bride from their royal family to be married to another royal family member in Ohkema.

    Phainon, a collateral member of the royal family adopted from the fallen Aedes Elysiae territory, was tasked with selecting the bride. His choice shocked the entire world: he chose not from the offered brides but instead pointed to Mydeimos, the crown prince of Castrum Kremnos.

    Summary

    She wore that Granger expression, the one that said she was going to bully someone into something. Draco had a bad feeling it was about to be him. “I’ll marry you,” Hermione said.

    “Don’t be ridiculous.”

    “I’m not doing it for free. I marry you, then after a year we divorce and you agree to fund S.P.E.A.M.B. In perpetuity.”

    “Out of the question.”

    “It’s just one year. We would both get what we want.”

    “Contracted marriages require consummation,” he said, adding a leer for good measure.

    Granger had gotten more attractive since their Hogwarts days, he would give her that much. Her jumper was atrocious, though. He had half a mind to burn it.

    To his everlasting shock, she merely shrugged. “It’s just sex. I’ve had it before and I presume you have too.”

    She was utterly serious. Draco stared at her and contemplated being married to her. She was irritating and he might make her promise to never wear that jumper again, but it was better than the alternative.

    Draco would do just about anything to avoid being poor.

    “You’re serious?”

    “Completely.”

    “Then congratulations, Granger. You've got yourself a husband.”
