    Summary

    The story is set between London and France during WW2. Elio is Jewish but Oliver isn’t, for plot reasons. There is an initial relationship between Oliver and a male OC, which I will keep short and sweet, and without which Oliver and Elio wouldn’t be able to meet.
    The story was inspired by Charlotte Gray, but many things have been changed for obvious reasons.
    There will be angst because we are in Nazi-occupied France and Elio is a Jew, but I guarantee that the boys will have their happy ending.

    The usual warnings apply: the characters are not mine, I don't own anything but my own reinvention of their story.

    Summary

    Elio has been a vampire now for almost three hundred years and has realized what he always thought was true: humans, although mostly good, are weak and far too emotional. His world though, gets turned upside down when he meets a human he suddenly yearns for and realizes he doesn’t want to live without!

    This vampire world is similar to the one in True Blood where synthetic blood has been created and vampires can live out in the open. There are still those who oppose that though!

    I’m so happy to indulge myself in this work! But as we all know, it’s all about these boys! I don’t own them, they own me!

    Summary

    Maktub is Arabic for “it is written”.

    I could have titled it Paris, but then again why be boring?
    Elio’s POV to start with, but Oliver’s too, at some point.

    Please note that I have been to Paris, but I haven’t lived there so I am bound to make mistakes for which apologize in advance.

    Enjoy it more for the fun of it than for the historical accuracy.

    Cole Porter’s I Love Paris by Les Negresses Vertes put me in the mood before I started writing this story.
