    Summary

    Kiara Carrera has a new job, a four-year-old daughter, and absolutely no intention of complicating her fresh start in Costa Rica.

    Unfortunately for her, she has an incredibly inconvenient secret.

    Unfortunately for Rafe, the woman he’d always carried a torch for is the last person he expected to show up in his life again — and she didn’t come alone.

    And unfortunately for both of them, neither has ever been particularly good at staying away from each other.

    Summary

    Sand shifted, accommodating and malleable under her shoes beside the bench they had made to remember JJ.

    Kiara never had been good at compartmentalizing. The concept of separating facts and emotions seemed contrived. That wasn’t her—it never had been. Not even three years later when Rafe Cameron reached out again. Only, it wasn't because he wanted to talk.

    Or in other words, Rafe returned to Kildare as a free man because the letter had been officially ruled inadmissible under the Confrontation Clause due to Ward's death.

    Summary

    Kiara always felt she knew herself exceptionally well.

    Her parents used words like precocious and opinionated to describe her at an early age... As she got older, she learned that those were coded words for traits like stubborn, single-minded, and obstinate.

    She preferred terms like passionate, determined, and candid.

    But when she met Rafe Cameron, Kiara learned she didn’t know herself quite as well as she’d believed.

    Summary

    Kiara blinked slowly, trying to clear her head and come up with some cool, dismissive reply. She’d break this moment between them, and go find the bathroom… She waited for her body to reboot and begin following her mind’s orders.

    But when had Rafe ever given her a second to gain her footing when he was closing in on the kill?

    ---

    Kiara ended things with Rafe, but when she runs into him at a party it's hard to say no.

    Summary

    Rafe Cameron is getting married to Sophia Delgado.

    But he’s been in love with his best friend, Kiara Carrera, since he was eight years old.

    So can someone please explain why he asked Kie of all people to be his best man…woman…best girl? Whatever you wanna call it. He could have asked any one of his boys, but he chose her.

    In more ways than one, Rafe and Kie had been there for each other through sickness and in health. Their friends would say they’re like an old married couple. So why weren’t they the ones getting married to each other?

    Summary

    THAT KOOK YEAR THAT ALL OF US THIRSTY BITCHES WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

    Being part of two worlds is not as complicated as it seems. Suddenly, lying becomes like second nature and you begin to fracture into two versions of yourself that you don't even understand.
    It would just be a year of torture until I could get back to my friends, back to being a Pogue.
    It would just be a year where I would have to pretend to hate everything and everyone on this side of the island.
    It would just be year of pretending I don't want him.

     

    I try to keep everything according to the timeline but maybe there are one or two things that I invent but, do it for the plot lmao.

    Summary

    "Tell me every terrible thing you ever did, and let me love you anyway."
    ― Edgar Allan Poe, Collected Poems

    Kiara Carrera could never say her life was orderly, or, moreover, routine, because that would be far from the truth. Searching for the gold from the Royal Merchant, the Cross of Santo Domingo, and even proving the existence of the legendary city of El Dorado, cost her and her friends constant risking their lives and escaping deadly traps. Adventures on the sunny islands of the Outer Banks, where endless summers lasted, forever linked her to the Pogues, more than any blood bond could ever have. But this time, will someone on the other side of the barrier thwart their plans? Fate can be fickle, as can the residents of the wealthy section of town, who cannot be trusted. The stakes rise with a new assignment to find Blackbeard's treasure. Rivals are growing, and allies are dwindling.

    Can an enemy turn into an ally and be an exception to the rule? Is the risk worth taking? And what might the consequences be?

     

    [The action takes place during the fourth/fifth season of Outer Banks and contains an alternate ending].

    Summary

    He had taken the crown first.
    He had secured the realm second.
    He had waited, plotting in the dark, allowing the pieces to fall exactly where he needed them.

    Daemon Targaryen took the crown two years ago. Now, it was time to bring his Queen home.

    Or: Daemon took the crown but couldn't marry Rhaenyra immediately, so instead... he plotted.

    Summary

    When her mother died, the first thing her father saw was the bottom of a bottle. When what was left of Rhaenyra's world collapsed in on itself, the first thing she saw was Daemon. It was only natural, she reasoned, that she'd turned to him, begun to orient toward this singular warmth; that petal by petal, she'd trustingly hand him over her layers as they unfurled.

    «« »»

    Sixteen-year-old Rhaenyra turns up on the doorstep of the uncle she never knew in the midst of dual familial and global crises. In isolation, a friendship of necessity blossoms into something more intimate and complex.

    Summary

    “King Viserys sent him into exile, never to return to the Seven Kingdoms on pain of death… Of the aftermath, these things are certain. Following the tragic mishap of Lady Rhea Royce’s untimely death and the Princess Rhaenyra’s wedding to Ser Laenor, Daemon Targaryen returned to the Stepstones and resumed his struggle for those barren storm-swept rocks. The subsequent decade found him abroad in Essos, keeping residence with various highborn families in Pentos and holding court with his paramour Mysaria, returned to him after an extended period of absence. It was only with the birth of Princess Rhaenyra’s third son Prince Joffrey—and the announcement of his second daughter’s search for a husband—that King Viserys finally wrote his erstwhile brother, bidding him to come home.”

    - 'Fire & Blood, Being a History of the Targaryen Kings of Westeros' by Archmaester Gyldayn

    Daemon returns to King's Landing after ten years in exile, intent on rekindling his affair with Rhaenyra. He wasn't expecting you - the revelation changes everything.

    Summary

    “Wed her to me.” Daemon breathed out, the dagger pressing into the skin of his pale neck, his violet gaze piercing up at his brother with conviction of a man who knows what he wants. “When I offered up my crown, you said I could have anything.”

    “I want Rhaenyra.”

    —•—

    The court would whisper of that night for years. Some would call it madness, others mercy, others still would name it folly. But Rhaenyra remembers it as the night her world cracked open—the night her father, weary of quarrels and eager for peace, gave his brother the one thing Daemon had craved above all else: her. It was a bargain signed in silence, in candlelight, and though none knew it then, the realm had already begun to bleed.

    One word.

    That's all it took for Rhaenyra, the trajectory of her life, and the realm to change forever.

    Summary

    “Rafe,” Sarah says. “Remember I told you Kie was moving back? She’s staying with me for a little.”

    Kiara watches as Rafe blinks, then drags his gaze down the length of her. He brings his beer bottle to his lips and takes a long sip before he says, “Didn’t realize moving back meant crashing parties.”

    Kie’s head draws back in surprise. “Oh. Didn’t realize winning one race meant you own the Boneyard. My bad, dude.”

    His blue eyes flicker with interest. He grins at her. She glares back.

    Summary

    “Your heart will beat, but it will never beat for someone, and you will never be in love. Never will it flutter, never will you know the palpitations of passion and yearning. Your throne will never be threatened, and your father will never disinherit you — but you will have to give up your ability to love for that.”
    ***
    “I have given you someone’s heart, my Prince. Be careful not to break it.”

    Afraid to lose her position as her father's heir, Rhaenyra trades her heart for security. Dejected and not at all celebratory after his triumph at the Stepstones, Daemon gets repaid for his bravery by a mysterious woman. Both get their biggest wishes granted.

    And just like that, Rhaenyra's heart begins beating for someone, and Daemon is no longer forlorn — but is it just the dark magic they have entangled themselves in or genuine love? Is this feeling real — or just a spell of a witch playing with both of them?

    And does it even matter?

    Summary

    When his recently widowed aunt announces she is going to seek solace in Oldtown, citing the need to meet High Septon and devote herself to prayer, Daemon seizes the moment to fulfil his dream. And besides, if he is not going to do it, then someone else will, for the roads are perilous and hungry men are lurking in the shadows - she will never reach Oldtown; it is better that he captures her as soon as possible and gives her the protection and the status she deserves.

    It is a story about love, for Daemon only wants one thing in exchange for her freedom - for her to be his forever.

    It is a story about revenge, for Rhaenyra will try to hold her ground - until he offers her something she cannot resist.
