    Summary

    Daemon has a son with his first wife, Rhea Royce, before he leaves for the Stepstones. Mikkael is nearly 10 when his mother dies and his father, seemingly unaware of his newborn sister, returns to Runestone. Now without his mother's guiding hand, Mikkael is thrust into the world of politicking among the high lords of Westeros and can't help but feel pulled between his First Men ancestry and Valyrian Heritage.

    Alyssa Targaryen of House Royce is, unlike her namesake, a peacemaker. It's hard not to be when you see the awful futures wrought by internal warring within your own family as she does. In her desperation to remedy the simmering conflict within the House of the Dragon before it boils over, she finds herself under the scrutiny of her childhood friend—a friend who counts himself first among her siblings' enemies.

    Summary

    On the 7th day of the 12th moon, 110 AC, Maester Lewys wrote, Lady Rhea of House Royce delivered of a daughter by her husband, Prince Daemon of House Targaryen. Such an unlikely birth was greeted with some bewildered, but primarily, amusement.

    Or, how Aella Targaryen learned to stop worrying and embrace eldritch horror in order to become one of history’s greatest monsters.

    Summary

    The new girl.

    That's what Sebastian Sallow still calls her, considering she ditched him that first week of fifth year. It's not like he needs her - Sebastian doesn't need anyone. He's on his own (with the exception of Ominis) and he's doing just fine.

    He doesn't know her. Doesn't know why everyone seems to care, why they're making such a big deal over her. Doesn't know why he feels this need to turn his head every time she passes by. Why she looks away so fast whenever he catches her eye.

    But she does.

    Summary

    |PART ONE - COMPLETED|

    Thomas Shelby found his match in an information bookie who has eluded the grasp of the Peaky Blinders long enough to crumble their power over Birmingham. But at last, he found you. The ghost he'd been chasing was finally in front of him, but you were trickier than he expected. Dangerous, cunning - and a bit too much like himself. To buy your loyalty, he would have to sell his in equal measure. Loyalty for loyalty - blood for blood - how much were either of you willing to spill before the game changed entirely?

    |PART TWO - ONGOING|

    Years after Thomas Shelby finally found the one person who understood him completely, the Blinders are divided in the face of a new opponent. Once lovers on the verge of strangers, Tommy must tear down an institution threatening, not only his family, but the world around him.

    Summary

    Sebastian Sallow fucking sucks. Who else would call you ignorant after all you've done for him? After what happened at the Yule Ball? AND steal the pumpkin pasty right from your pocket? That damn Slytherin would. Except he doesn't actually think you're ignorant, and you don't actually hate him. And that's the problem isn't it? Because the two of you together are destined for chaos when all the Unforgivables, the relic, and every other terrible decision comes back to bite you in the ass.

    Summary

    You run cold, you always have, it’s just another thing to love as far as Finnick is concerned. He himself emits heat like a furnace on the best of days.

    He remembers cold hands touching his heated skin, cold toes shocking the skin of his legs whenever you lay together. But now, now Finnick feels nothing but a hissing heat as your mouths press together. Heat like a hot knife cutting into a block of ice, like a blazing star consuming him in a ball of fire, only to sizzle into a warm embrace. He melts into you, trusting that you’ll sculpt him back together with your glacial grip.
    Or
    After everything you and Finnick have gone through together, it only makes sense that you’ve grown a little attached.

    Summary

    "And if I'm honest…"

    Spoon clattering as Sebastian stood, taking a breath as he approached her in the doorway.

    The stride slow, pointed. Each step an edict.

    Up close, he was both more familiar and more alien. Chin dusted with stubble.

    Azkaban left fingerprints on him in ways she was still counting.

    His eyes were alight with justification. Presented in a low, knowing voice:

    "…I think you owe me now, don't you. Since apparently, if not for sheer dumb luck, I'd still be rotting in the cell you and Ominis put me in."

    Cara closed her eyes. Tasted metal. "Don't say that."

    But Sebastian knew he'd played the winning hand.

    She could hear it in the way his voice softened; how he let the silence stretch just enough to burrow under her skin.

    "Too late. You don't get to worry about me now, Officer. But if I find any leads, I'll let you know. We know where to find each other."

    She inhaled sharply, mind breeding nightmare scenarios like doxies in the dark. Each wilder than the last.

    "Fine. But don't overstep."

    "Wouldn't dream of it."

    Summary

    Steve Rogers prided himself on patience. It was a virtue he had cultivated over decades, through war and peace, through ice and awakening. He was a gentleman, raised in an era when manners mattered and respect was paramount. But this new recruit was testing every ounce of restraint he possessed.

    Never in his life had he laid hands on a woman in a manner unbefitting his principles. His mother would have rolled over in her grave at the mere thought. Yet here he was, fingers wrapped around this infuriating woman's arm, dragging her through the pristine corridors of the Avengers compound with a force that surprised even him. She had a peculiar talent for pushing his buttons, an almost supernatural ability to find the exact nerve that would make his jaw clench and his eyes narrow. And right now, with her reckless idiocy on full display, she was about to push the very last one.

    Everyday he gets closer and closer to muzzling her.

    Summary

    A carefully concealed blade meant to kill; that is what their marriage is.

    When Aemond is promised to Daemon Targaryen’s firstborn daughter, the sharp-willed Lady of Runestone, the arrangement has one simple goal; to unite the feuding factions in their family and stall the conflict threatening to rip House Targaryen apart.

    But some ambitions cannot be quelled and both are bound to serve their bloodline above all else; He is tasked with winning her trust. She is told to betray his.

    Treading the fine line between duty and desire is a calculated risk when their charade hides greed and old grudges within. And when trust is a weapon, love might just be the deepest betrayal.

    Summary

    Valaena Targaryen is a bastard, legitimized by the king when she was just a child, but a bastard just the same. Her father's love and protective nature of her is the only reason she holds such a high place at court, content on living her days as the bastard Daemon Targaryen and enjoying the freedom life had to offer her.

    Unfortunately, fate has other plans as she finds herself thrown into the center of war and used as a pawn to all those vying for the throne. Torn between love and family, Valaena is forced to choose as death threatens those most dear to her.

    Summary

    When Daemon Targaryen claims his bastard daughter, Maelyra, born from a pirate captain he took for a lover in his time as King of the Narrow Sea, it’s not to raise her in court and gown her in dresses. That’s for his trueborn daughters, Baela and Rhaena. No, Lyra, the child of a fallen Tyroshi pirate captain, possesses too many skills Daemon can use in his strategies and plots, as he senses building strife between the courts of Queen Alicent and Princess Rhaenyra. He needs a spy, an assassin, and a dragonrider no one expects, so he brings his bastard into the household of Driftmark, disguised as nothing more than a foreign serving girl.

    Lyra grows up between Driftmark, the Red Keep, and Dragonstone in the events leading up to the Dance, and as tensions rise, her loyalties are tested, especially when she finds herself caring for someone who may bring doom upon those she calls kin.

    (Basically all of Rhaenyra and Daemon’s kids have a secret older sister who will smother them with eldest sister energy in all events leading up and into the Dance. Also slow burn friends-to-enemies-to-secret-third-thing between female OC/Aemond.)
