Summary
"Despite Rhaegal, she and Gendry were vulnerable.
They had brought their own men, of course, men formerly of the Watch and other Northerners who wanted to know what warmth felt like. People who were loyal to House Stark – loyal to Larra. Younger sons, cousins who stood to inherit nothing.
The wolves of winter.
But all those people loyal to them would be lambs in a slaughter, just as her father’s men had been slaughtered in the throne room of the Red Keep, if strangers had conspired to catch them in a trap.
The dread of that being the fate she was leading hundreds to weighed on her.
But she would rather face that than remain on Dragonstone.
There was something evil about the island, an ominous presence that loomed over everyone and everything. There was something menacing about the shadows of the Dragonmont.
It did not want them there."
After the War for the Dawn, Larra heads south to confront an enemy no-one else knows is coming. She must unite the Stormlords if Westeros hopes to survive a civil war between Queen Cersei, Lady Targaryen and the Pretender from across the Narrow Sea who calls himself Aegon Targaryen.

Summary
Inspired by One Tree Hill and Surviving Summer:
Poppy’s voice wobbled when she finally asked, “Why did you even quit anyway? You were the best Mum ever coached. You should be representing Victoria in State tournaments right now.”
Maeve sighed. “It’s not because I didn’t love it, or because I hated competing,” she said quietly.
“So then, why?” Poppy prompted.
“You know what it’s like, in between heats, everyone just waiting in the sand, watching,” Maeve said, and Poppy nodded. “I started overhearing things. People talking. The other kids… They kept teasing me. That Zara’s dad was actually my dad too.”
“Oh,” Poppy breathed, her eyes widening.
“So I asked Mum what they meant,” Maeve told her. She sprayed the counter again and wiped it clean, smiling grimly. “That’s when Mum and Dad told me about Callum, and...”
“Zara,” Poppy sighed heavily, and Maeve nodded.

Summary
'She was ashamed to have let them down. She was supposed to look after them, after Brandon and Rickon. She was not a Stark; but Robb had entrusted Winterfell to her, to her and Luwin and Bran… She had sent Rickon off with Osha and Shaggydog and knew she would never see them again; she felt it in her marrow. She had Bran alone; and he was forgetting who he was.'
Jon Snow's twin-sister was left behind at Winterfell. Years after fleeing the Ironborn, Larra returns.

Summary
Deep in the heart of the Ministry lies the Beast Division: a hidden room where ancient beasts roam, and winged creatures soar, and grumpy giant ferrets eat all your biscuits unless you keep them well hidden. Draco Malfoy would know – he’s been working there for five years now, after all.
Meanwhile, on Level One, ex-Golden Boy Harry Potter is stuck in another interminable policy meeting, completely unaware of the mysterious comings and goings just three floors below. But when a giant snake emergency requires the assistance of a Parselmouth, Harry finds himself thrust, unprepared, into Draco’s weird and wonderful world – and naturally, he can’t keep away…

Summary
Shane stares down at his phone screen in utter, abject horror.
He doesn’t know what happened. How his thumb managed to slip and hit send. He was backspacing—he’s absolutely positive he was backpacking—because no way in hell would he have actually sent a message to Rozanov whining about the fact that they didn’t kiss. There’s no reality in which that makes sense and doesn’t make him look like an idiotic, obsessive, overly attached freak.
