    Summary

    Lily's not a witch. She gave up that part of herself to appease her sister.

    But the Wizarding World doesn't like to be ignored and when Petunia is kidnapped, Lily is thrown back into the life she might have had. With the help of sleep-deprived Auror James Potter, Lily might just be reintroduced to the witch she could have been.

    Summary

    Lily Evans and James Potter are not friends.

    They haven’t been for all the nine years they've spent circling the same friendship group. But now, thanks to a road trip gone wrong, they find themselves stranded together in the depths of a Romanian forest.

    The crash was Potter’s fault. And Sirius Black, of course. Now Black and the others are on their way to a hospital, while Lily is stuck with Potter, hoping a kind stranger might stop and help them reach the nearest village. But they do not know that this is no ordinary forest. People go missing here. Bodies, when found, are drained of blood. And in the nearby villages, there are whispers of monsters that walk like men.

    What began as a minor accident quickly becomes a fight for survival. Lily and James must rely on each other to stay alive, while their friends scramble to find them… before it’s too late.

    Summary

    Sometimes, a one-night-stand with a guy off Tinder is just that: a one-night-stand. No lasting feelings, no strings attached. It's the kind of thing that's easy to get your head around when you're trying to get your heart around the end of a relationship.

    Sometimes, it's not that simple.

    Sometimes, you're a journalist, and you get assigned to write a piece on an up-and-coming restaurateur, who just might be that one-night-stand from Tinder that you can't stop thinking about. And sometimes, to make matters worse, the two of you get snowed in...

    ****

    Or: Lily shags James, and thinks she'll never see him again. Right? Wrong.

    Summary

    "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the sixth month dies...”

    Severus Snape overhears Sybill Trelawney's prophecy and thinks it through a little before repeating it. He changes one word- seven to six- July to June- with no idea of just how far reaching the consequences will be. And so, on Halloween of 1981, Voldemort targets a different boy.

    Narcissa and Lucius find out very early on how far they are prepared to go to keep their son safe. But they do have allies, and some of them turn out to very unexpected.

    And so begins the War of the Snakes.

    Summary

    When the Order of the Phoenix discovers that Lucius Malfoy, rich bachelor and womaniser extraordinaire, may secretly be a Death Eater with access to an item that could be the key to bringing down Voldemort, Lily Evans comes up with a brilliant plan: to seduce him into inviting her to his house, and then take the opportunity to snoop around for information.

    James Potter, her mission partner, is less than thrilled with this idea.

    Summary

    ‘Through here,’ James called from the kitchen. The anxiety that had welled up inside her ebbed away at the sound of his voice. ‘Don’t turn on the light.’

    Pocketing her wand, she noticed the truly unnatural darkness stretching into every corner of the room, save for the small space touched by the light orb. It seemed as though someone had spun darkness into something palpable and blanketed every surface. Wondering what James had been up to, she crossed the room.

    Summary

    "My, my, aren't you a pretty one. Ren, how do you think someone so young and fair survives out here?"

    Behind him stood a somewhat taller and more menacing figure in similar robes, half of his face covered by the fabric surrounding the cowl, her eyes locked onto the only visible part of his face: his angry eyes and dark eyebrows.

    'This is how it's supposed to be, right?' Kylo’s and Rey’s eyes widened at the same time.

    "Who are you?" Rey's grip on her staff tightened.

    "Just passerbys, miss." Hux stepped closer. "We come from the village of Tuanal, seeking assistance."

    "You won't get assistance at Niima Outpost." She looked at their robes again and remembered the rumors she heard about the attack on Tuanal. "You are not natives of Jakku."

    She watched the taller figure straighten his form just the slightest.

    "I can assure you-" Hux began.

    "I know when people lie to me. Those robes could feed the locals for a week or two. No one would wear them all day, it's only a matter of hours, if that, before a heat stroke will claim you."

    Summary

    Being a God is divine - until it’s not. James, the Sun God, has had enough of immortality, celestial parties, and endless adoration. He’s ready to trade in his golden throne for something far more thrilling: mortality. Enter Lily Evans, a mortal desperate for anything to break the monotony of her very ordinary life.

    But when their paths cross, the line between mortal and divine begins to blur, drawing them into a tangled web of prophecy, power, and peril. As shadows stir and the God of the Underworld sets his sights on Lily, James must face the one thing even a God cannot control: fate.
