    Summary

    Being a singer at the local seedy bar isn't for everyone. Even you, who had been performing for quite the while.

    The lights are too hot and bright, the makeup is too much, and you could do without the types of dresses you're told to wear.

    But, it does just enough to pay the bills; and you, a lady living on her own don't have many options to work with.

    Until, one night you notice that your nightly pay has suddenly become abundantly better than what it typically would have been.

    It doesn't take long for you to realize that a third party has been adding extra funds to your wages and remaining silent about it all.

    But, eventually you'll understand why...

    And you may not like it.

    Summary

    She can’t be real, he thinks. This must be a sign of him steadily going mad. A mirage - it must be. A vision of a time that once existed, when girls who look like dolls were free to make noise in the woods, without fear of dying at the hands of a zombie.

    He’s shown abruptly that she indeed must be real, because she falls violently to the ground, and the mirage is shattered. He hears her swear aloud, then he sees the blood pooling steadily down her sleeve. He slowly comes to realise the source of her terror: the shiny metal of his trap, quite literally pinning her to the forest floor.

    She’s thrashing, attempting to simply pry the trap off of her. She’s quite the sight, pulling at the trap wildly while flailing around in all her layers, like an alligator performing a death roll. It’s then that he notices her eyes have fallen closed at some point.

    Scheiße, she passed out. She’s going to bleed to death. Unless someone goes down there. And there’s no one else around for miles.

    ___

    This started as something inspired by Trapper, Keeper by babypandacakes. It evolved into a new beast, long-ish. I'm currently writing chapter 34, with an end in sight.

    Summary

    A dirty basement beneath an isolated cabin is no place for a sweet girl like you to be kept...but something about you makes König want to ruin...corrupt...destroy. So that makes it the perfect place to keep you all to himself.

    Basically a dark fic where König kidnaps and holds you captive. There will probably be a gluttony of triggers, I will do my best to tag/warn for them all.

    Summary

    ​Task Force 141 is the most elite, lethal, and highly disciplined unit in the British military. When Captain Price hires a freelance trauma surgeon for a high-casualty black-ops mission, the team expects a hardened, scarred veteran to walk through the door. Instead, they get Dr. Lyra Sterling.
    At exactly five-foot-nothing, swimming in oversized streetwear and sporting the face of an angel, Lyra looks like she belongs in a university library. But the 141 is about to learn exactly why her callsign is "Mayhem." She is cocky, brutally sarcastic, completely disrespectful of military protocol, and hiding a massive, violent secret beneath her baggy hoodies. As the op descends into chaos, Ghost is infuriated by her, Soap is enamored with her, and Roach is determined to test her limits. But keeping the deadliest men on earth alive might just be the easiest part of Lyra's job surviving their relentless curiosity about her past will be the real war.

    Summary

    She was raised to believe the world would destroy her. So she never questioned the walls. The rules. The quiet life her father built for her deep in the woods. But when he doesn't return, she has no choice but to step outside. Alone for the first time, she follows the forest further than she ever has before and finds a place where people live freely. Where no one is trapped. But something isn’t right. And the man who brought her there has taken a particular interest in her.

    “The forest isn't what you should be afraid of.”

    Summary

    Lucius Malfoy has died, and Draco has inherited the Malfoy estate. For the next six months it is under Ministry review.

    Draco Malfoy's problems now include: (i) a vast network of assets he cannot name, let alone manage properly; (ii) a one-night stand who won't go away; (iii) a different one-night stand he's wanted to find for years; and (iv) his mother's insistence that he start courting, preferably before Pansy Parkinson does.

    Meanwhile, Hermione heads out on a field assignment where she makes an unexpected friend. Upon her return she’s given a new assignment from the Ministry that should be a curse-breaker's dream: find Lucius Malfoy's dark objects and decommission them.

    If only the Manor would be more cooperative.

    Summary

    Violet Blake spent her whole life afraid of what her touch could do—until she met the one man who was reckless enough to want her anyway.

    After investigating a string of missing supes connected to a secret black-site operation, The Boys discover Violet aka Siphon, being transported by a biotech company experimenting with synthetic Compound V.

    Forced into hiding with The Boys, Violet is pulled into a conspiracy involving human experimentation, synthetic supes, and a private army in the making.

    Violet learns a critical flaw in her design...she destabilizes most living matter on contact, but Soldier Boy's altered biology makes him uniquely resistant. He becomes the only person she can touch without catastrophic consequences, creating an uneasy trust between them.

    As Butcher pushes to weaponize her against the shady corporation, she must decide whether she is a tool of destruction or the catalyst that brings the entire system down.

    Summary

    ⋆⁺₊⋆ 𓃹 ⋆⁺₊⋆

    A dark, hooded figure emerged from the dense snowstorm, growing far too tall as it approached. You shuffled back weakly in the bloodstained snow and winced as you jostled the trap clamped on your boot.

    “What is this?” the man’s voice rumbled, muffled behind his mask. “You are…not what I expected to catch today.” He crouched and cupped your cheek reverently, as if you were a tiny creature whose delicate bones would snap at a too-rough touch.

    You flinched at first — but he was warm, so warm.

    “You are very far from home, aren’t you, Kleines Häschen?” he mused, honeyed words drawn out slowly as you relaxed into his palm. “Come, let me tend to your wound. Rest by my fire, just for a little while.”

    The man scooped you up from the snow, unresisting. Sleep whispered sweet temptation as you were cradled to his chest, lulled by the blood loss and his steady steps. You gave in to the beckoning darkness, and allowed your heavy lids to close, like he said—

    just for a little while.

    An old pact calls. Cooper Howard comes to take what's his before Lucy MacLean marries Maximus.

    --

    “Now, we got two options on how to handle this,” The Stranger continues as though she hadn’t spoken. “Either you can come with me willingly, or I kill your sweet ol’ knight.”

    Maximus steps forward. “Don’t do it, Lucy.”

    Tears sting her eyes as she looks first to her dad, then to Maximus. Then, finally, to The Stranger. “Promise me you won’t hurt them.”

    “You have my word,” comes the low reply.

    “Lucy, no. Lucy!!" But she’s unable to call back as a cloth is placed over her nose and mouth, taking every last bit of fight out of her.

    Luck. It has defined Roman’s entire life.

    He’s a “Curse”, someone who brings misfortune to others simply by disliking them. Yet no matter how much he tries to suppress his emotions, he’s distrusted and shunned. A fact which left him desperate to get his needs met when he matured into a Sub, then without anyone to turn to when the only Dom he could find turned out to be a psycho.

    Now, after years of abuse, he’s starting over. New city, new job, and inevitably a new problem. What he needs is someone to put back together his shattered self-esteem, help work through his trauma, and ease his panic attacks. What he gets is Lieutenant Vance, a Dom with seemingly no qualms about using his Dom aura on Roman from the moment they meet, and without the slightest invitation.

    But as much as he knows he should resist, Roman doesn’t have the confidence. It’s easier to just shut up and let a Dom do whatever they want. Although, he doesn't really know what that is with Vance.

    Summary

    Emily Richmond has a perfect life. An attractive, wealthy husband, a healthy, intelligent teenage son, a nice house in the suburbs, and a quiet, predictable routine. Sure, it’s lonely when her husband has to leave town for business, but Emily is grateful for the stability and financial security Michael’s job provides.

    Then she is kidnapped and taken to a remote country estate by a mysterious man who claims that Michael isn’t as perfect as Emily believes him to be. Reticent, uncompromising and even cruel at times, Alois Maxwell is no saint either. Trapped in complete isolation and submission, Emily’s only comfort comes in the assurance her handsome captor gives her—that, unlike her husband, he will not lie to her.

    Multiple shocking revelations bring Emily to her knees. As her perfect life shatters around her, she finds herself with only one person to turn to for support: her controlling, bitter captor. Even while Emily searches for answers and solace in his cold amber eyes, she wonders why they seem familiar.

    Emily's husband has secrets. Alois holds the keys that unlock them. However, the key to Emily’s freedom is the one he doesn't want to give her.

    Summary

    After surviving HYDRA, brainwashing, cryogenic freezing, and the end of the world more times than feels fair, Bucky Barnes is convinced he’s done being surprised.

    Then reality tears open and drops him into the irradiated ruins of Boston and the Commonwealth quickly proves him wrong.

    The wasteland is violent, absurd, and held together with duct tape and stubborn hope. Nora fits right in: Minuteman General, fixer of impossible problems, and a woman who refuses to let the world break her.

    Bucky thinks he might fit right in too.

    -----

    Takes place immediately following the events of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

    Buckle in, this is a long one.
