    Summary

    Book One: Legacy of Pain (29/29 chapters) - complete

    Anne's malady is a curse, is it not? The newest Ravenclaw is not so sure. When all else fails, her Muggle upbringing provides a yet unexplored pathway. After all, the simplest explanation, however improbable, must be correct.

    If only it were as simple to fix it.

    Doubly so when balancing an unorthodox relationship with the solemn duty of a heritor of ancient magic and the seductive whisper of the Dark Arts, the shadow of death looming over them all does not make it any easier.

    Book Two: A Goddess Bound (11/11 chapters) - complete

    Book Three: Tempered, Quenched, Hardened (27/27 chapters) - complete

    Book Four: Bloodbonds (33/33 chapters) - complete

    Will add an epilogue later.

    Crossposted on Wattpad.

    Summary

    He took her face between his clawed hands and kissed her, hard and quick.

     

    “So now that I have you back,” as he spoke, his voice crackled and lowered several octaves, and the room darkened as he allowed his power to slip out just enough to make reality around them go fuzzy. “I’m not letting you go.”

     

    In the 1950's, Alastor met the woman he would eventually marry but unfortunately his Radio Demon persona went for her soul rather than her hand. He has to learn what it means to love, and cherish, without possessing and he does. Their relationship is beautiful, strong, unbreakable . . . but he carries a dark secret through their marriage for decades until eventually he has to face the consequences of that secret and leave her, without warning, for seven years. He returns, finding her at the Hazbin Hotel, and has to convince her to forgive him, while being literally bound to secrecy, unable to tell her any of things he now is desperate to explain to her.

    (This is a duel timeline fic, timestamps will be a the top of every chapter.)

    Summary

    Her head jerked up, eyes narrowing, only to be met with a pair of the most startling sea green eyes she’d ever seen. The nose between them looked like it had been carved from marble, the lips beneath that were perfectly shaped, full. He was tanned, topped with a mop of wavy black hair, and he looked like a Greek god on earth; Annabeth would know. She was the resident expert on Greek gods. It only took a second for these thoughts to cross her mind before she realized he’d said something to her with a smile and she blinked, “What?”

    Summary

    “Fine,” she said. “Do you know the statistically most common way for the authorities to take out organized crime?”
    Well, if that was her idea of enticing conversation, it was no wonder she had all those evenings free to chase after scoundrels like him. Still, Astarion didn’t want to antagonize her further and ruin the game, so he pursed his lips and guessed, “A very large, well-placed cannon?”
    “Tax fraud.”
    She looked at him as if she expected some sort of reaction – maybe a dramatic gasp? A palm flung to his forehead in a theatrical rendition of How could I not think of this?
    Everything he could muster was a blink. “Tax … fraud.”
    She nodded, obviously excited about what Astarion was sure were two of the most boring words in the English language, combined.
    "That's how we'll take down Cazador."

    Summary

    Raine Crowe was no one but a spectre below the surface, a hacker renewed for her efficiency. Named Spectre for her capacity to get in any system unnoticed, she was good at snatching data, spying in systems, spreading viruses, making people disappear or appear in administrative papers.

    After all, Raine Crowe was a lie in itself.

    Accepting an insanely well-paid job (and, also, insanely illegal), Raine just has to get into a database, snatch a file, transfer it. Easy, right?

    Yeah, well. The CIA wasn’t exactly delighted to learn of the vanishing of a file that could kickstart a World War if it landed in the wrong hands—and it definitely did.
