    Three Drops

    Y/N has spent years mastering the art of keeping secrets at Hogwarts. Especially one particular secret: she’s hopelessly in love with both Draco Malfoy and Theodore Nott. It’s an inconvenient little problem. Draco is sharp-tongued, possessive, and far softer with Y/N than he’d ever admit. Theo is clever, observant, and dangerously good at noticing every feeling she tries to hide. They’re her closest friends, and Y/N would rather swallow a live Blast-Ended Skrewt than risk ruining what they have by admitting she wants something more. Then a Potions lesson involving diluted Veritaserum goes horribly wrong. One accidental dose leaves Y/N completely incapable of lying for several hours. At first, it’s funny. Until Draco asks a question he really shouldn’t. Then Theo asks another. Suddenly, Y/N is confessing things she never intended either of them to know—including the devastating truth that she doesn’t have feelings for one of them. She has feelings for both. By the time the potion wears off, Y/N is absolutely mortified. Her solution is simple: avoid Draco and Theo until graduation. Unfortunately, Draco Malfoy and Theodore Nott have other plans. Because Y/N isn’t the only one who’s been keeping secrets. Draco and Theo have each been falling for her in their own way, quietly competing for her attention while assuming that eventually she would choose between them. But her accidental confession introduces a possibility none of them had dared to consider: Maybe she doesn’t have to choose at all. The truth serum may have forced Y/N to reveal her heart. Now Draco and Theo have to reveal theirs willingly. And somehow, between jealous arguments, whispered confessions, late nights in the Slytherin common room, disastrous Hogsmeade outings, stolen kisses, and two ridiculously stubborn Slytherin boys learning how to share the girl they both love, three best friends might stumble into something none of them expected. Something real.

    Four Names on the Board

    It was supposed to be a joke. One rainy Friday night, Y/N and her best friend dig an old Ouija board out of a dusty antique shop and jokingly ask for the four fictional men they’ve spent years obsessing over. Sam Winchester. Dean Winchester. Stefan Salvatore. Damon Salvatore. The board answers. The next morning, four very confused men wake up in Y/N’s apartment—with no idea how they got there, why everyone recognizes them, or why there’s an entire streaming service dedicated to their lives. Now Y/N has to hide two hunters and two vampires in the real world while searching for a way to send them home before the cracks between fiction and reality tear both worlds apart. Living together should be impossible. Instead, it becomes late-night movie marathons, grocery store disasters, sarcastic arguments over who gets the last slice of pizza, awkward explanations to suspicious neighbors, and feelings that become impossible to ignore. Because the longer Sam, Dean, Stefan, and Damon stay… The less any of them want to leave. But every spell has a price, and someone—or something—opened the door between worlds on purpose. With monsters beginning to slip into reality and time running out, Y/N must decide whether to send the four men back to the lives they belong in… …or risk losing everything to keep the people she’s fallen in love with.

    The space between heartbeats

    Mystic Falls has finally found something it almost never gets. Peace. Months have passed since the latest supernatural catastrophe, and for once no one is trying to end the world. Elena has moved away to attend medical school, Caroline is traveling, and Bonnie has returned from months abroad after helping witches rebuild fractured covens. For the first time in over a century, Damon Salvatore has absolutely no idea what to do with himself. Until Melanie Carter walks into the Mystic Grill. She’s Bonnie Bennett’s childhood best friend who has finally come home after years traveling across the country researching folklore, haunted towns, and forgotten magic. Smart, endlessly curious, and armed with enough sarcasm to keep Damon on his toes, Melanie has no interest in becoming another damsel caught in Mystic Falls’ chaos. She already knows vampires exist. Bonnie made sure of that years ago. Melanie also knows Damon’s reputation. He’s reckless. Infuriating. Egotistical. The kind of man she absolutely refuses to fall for. Unfortunately, Damon discovers almost immediately that she’s the only person in town completely unimpressed by him—and he can’t stop thinking about her. While Stefan and Bonnie encourage their growing friendship, Damon and Melanie slowly build something unexpected. They spend late nights drinking bourbon on the Salvatore porch, argue over books in antique shops, sneak away on road trips chasing supernatural legends, and somehow become each other’s favorite part of every day. Melanie sees the man Damon is still trying to become rather than the monster he used to be. Damon learns that love isn’t about grand gestures or saving someone from danger every other week. Sometimes it’s making her laugh after a bad day, bringing her favorite coffee without asking, or simply staying when life gets quiet. Just as Damon begins imagining a future he never believed he deserved, an ancient magical society arrives in Mystic Falls searching for a relic capab

    The Ministry Made Me Do It

    Years after the war, unstable magic begins affecting witches and wizards across Britain. To prevent dangerous magical collapse, the Ministry revives an ancient compatibility ritual known as the Binding, meant to pair unstable magical cores with someone capable of anchoring them. Most people receive one match. Y/N receives four. Draco Malfoy. Theodore Nott. Remus Lupin. Sirius Black. No one understands why the ritual chose them, only that breaking the connection could have serious magical consequences. Until the Binding stabilizes, the five are required to live together and complete the ancient magical union. There is just one problem: none of them believe magic should decide who they love. Draco is guarded and convinced no one would choose him without obligation. Theo hides vulnerability behind charm and wicked humor. Remus worries he has no right to ask anyone to share the burdens of his life. Sirius despises anything resembling forced tradition and refuses to let the Ministry dictate his heart. So they make one rule: the Binding may connect them, but everything else must be chosen. Forced proximity slowly turns tension into trust. Old feelings between Sirius and Remus resurface, while Draco and Theo begin questioning a friendship that has always been deeper than either admitted. Sirius and Draco, uncle and nephew, struggle toward an unexpected familial bond. And somewhere among arguments, late-night conversations, jealousy, laughter, and quiet tenderness, Y/N begins building something none of them expected. Not an arrangement. A family.

    The Hidden Mikaelson

    For a thousand years, the Original family believed there were only six surviving Mikaelson children. They were wrong. Long before Klaus triggered his werewolf curse, Esther made one final desperate choice. Fearing what Mikael might do if another child became caught in the violence consuming their family, she secretly entrusted her youngest daughter to a powerful coven. Her existence was erased from history through ancient magic. Memories blurred. Records vanished. Even Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah, Kol, and Finn forgot she had ever existed. For centuries she lived hidden from the world, raised among witches who warned her of the monsters bearing her family name. She grew up hearing stories of Klaus the Butcher, Elijah the Noble, and Rebekah the Broken—never realizing they were her own siblings. When the spell protecting her begins to fail after Klaus breaks the hybrid curse, forgotten memories awaken across the supernatural world. With nothing but a name—Mikaelson—and fragments of impossible dreams, she travels to Mystic Falls searching for the family she never knew. Instead, she finds the Salvatore brothers. Stefan is patient where the world has been cruel, offering her kindness without asking for anything in return. He sees the loneliness beneath her confidence and reminds her that monsters can choose to be better. Damon is everything she was warned about—reckless, sarcastic, infuriating, and devastatingly charming. He challenges her, makes her laugh when she wants to cry, and refuses to treat her like a fragile relic of history. Caught between Stefan’s quiet devotion and Damon’s consuming passion, she begins building a home with the brothers just as Klaus discovers the impossible truth: His little sister is alive. Klaus becomes fiercely obsessed with reclaiming the family stolen from him. Elijah believes she deserves the choice they were never given. Rebekah dreams of finally having a sister. Kol is delighted by the chaos. Finn questi

    Threads of Fate

    Everyone thinks the future’s written, but Y/N Potter, James’s younger sister, carries the true sight. Her visions are real, dangerous, and impossible to ignore. At Hogwarts she sees betrayal lurking in the shadows of the Marauders, and refuses to stand still. Peter Pettigrew’s mask starts to crack. Friends are tested. Love blossoms where no future ever promised it. Will she fall for Sirius Black’s reckless devotion or find solace in Remus Lupin’s quiet strength, maybe both? With fate unraveling around her, Y/N decides that the future doesn’t have to be obeyed. It can be rewritten. And she’s ready to change the ending.

    The Girl they left behind

    Melanie Swan has spent her entire life living in the shadow of her twin sister. When Charlie and Renee divorced, the twins were separated. Bella followed their mother to sunny Arizona, while Melanie stayed behind in rainy Forks with Charlie. She grew up surrounded by the Quileute pack, spent countless afternoons rebuilding old trucks with Billy Black, and counted Jacob Black as her very best friend. For years, Forks was home. Then Bella came back. Almost overnight, everything changed. Charlie finally had the daughter he’d spent years missing. Jacob became consumed by Bella. The Cullens arrived, vampires and ancient destinies crashed into their quiet town, and Melanie found herself becoming invisible in the life she’d built. No one was cruel on purpose—everyone was simply too wrapped up in Bella’s world to notice Melanie quietly disappearing from the edges of theirs. The last person she expected to lose was Jacob. When he stopped calling, stopped showing up, and eventually couldn’t seem to see anyone but Bella, something inside Melanie finally broke. She didn’t make a scene. She didn’t ask anyone to choose her. She simply packed a suitcase, left Charlie a letter promising she was safe, and drove across the country to Mystic Falls, Virginia, where her cousin Elena Gilbert welcomed her with open arms. It was supposed to be temporary. Instead, it became home. Five years later, Melanie has built a life she never imagined. She’s found a family in the Gilberts, friendships that don’t feel like afterthoughts, and a place where people know her as Melanie—not Bella’s twin. Damon Salvatore has become the sarcastic older-brother figure she never expected, Elena has become the sister she always wished she’d had, and Stefan Salvatore has become her closest friend. Stefan knows every version of her. The girl who still startles awake from nightmares. The woman who laughs until she cries over terrible movies. The friend who alw

    The Marauders Problem

    Y/N Potter has spent her entire life in the shadow of her twin brother. James is loud, fearless, effortlessly charming, and determined to leave his mark on Hogwarts. Y/N is quieter, more observant, and far better at noticing the cracks people try to hide. She loves her brother fiercely, even when his constant attempts to protect her make her want to hex him into the Black Lake. Being James Potter’s sister means the Marauders have always been part of her life. Peter saves her a seat at breakfast. James drags her into every reckless scheme. Sirius Black flirts with her simply to watch James lose his mind. At least, that is what Y/N tells herself. As they grow older, Sirius’s teasing becomes softer and his attention harder to dismiss. Beneath his reckless charm is a boy carrying the weight of a family that has never truly loved him, and Y/N may be the only person who sees how badly he wants somewhere to belong. Remus Lupin is different. He is quiet, careful, and always seems to know when the world has become too loud for her. Their friendship is built through shared books, late-night conversations, chocolate after difficult days, and secrets neither of them is ready to confess. Sirius loves like wildfire. Remus loves like moonlight. And Y/N is slowly realizing that her heart may have room for them both. But Hogwarts is changing. Pure-blood families are choosing sides, dangerous beliefs are spreading through the castle, and whispers of war follow them through the corridors. As Y/N becomes tangled in the Marauders’ secrets, full-moon disappearances, family betrayals, and feelings that could change everything, she must decide who she wants to be beyond James Potter’s little sister. Unfortunately, surviving a growing war may be easier than telling James that both of his best friends have fallen in love with her.

    Office Hours

    Hogwarts has reopened its doors to a new kind of student. Years after the war, the castle now offers an advanced magical studies program for adult witches and wizards who want to specialize in difficult branches of magic. Y/N expects a year of brutal coursework, late nights in the library, and perhaps finally figuring out what she wants to do with her life. She does not expect Professors Malfoy and Nott. Professor Draco Malfoy teaches Advanced Potions with immaculate robes, impossible standards, and a tongue sharp enough to draw blood. He barely tolerates his students, gives praise as though it physically pains him, and somehow always notices when Y/N stays late after class. Professor Theodore Nott teaches Ancient Magic and Magical Theory. Quiet, brilliant, and far more dangerous than his easy smirk suggests, Theo prefers teasing his students to terrifying them. Especially Y/N. At first, it’s harmless. A lingering conversation after class. A book Theo leaves on Y/N’s desk because he “thought she might appreciate it.” Draco silently replacing the ruined ingredient she can’t afford. Arguments in corridors that suddenly become too quiet when Y/N approaches. Then Y/N realizes something strange. Professor Malfoy seems particularly irritated whenever Professor Nott helps her. Professor Nott seems particularly entertained whenever Draco assigns her detention. And apparently half of Hogwarts has already figured out what Y/N hasn’t: The two professors are jealous. Of each other. Over her. Neither man is supposed to want her. Y/N is their student, and Hogwarts has very clear rules regarding relationships between professors and anyone currently under their academic authority. Draco knows it. Theo knows it. Y/N knows it. Knowing, unfortunately, does absolutely nothing to stop the stolen glances, increasingly unnecessary office hours, accidental touches, or the unbearable tension growing between all three of them.

    Until you find me

    When Y/N was sixteen, she made a promise with Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. Three best friends. Three drops of blood. One ancient magical bond. Wherever you go, I will find you. Whatever happens, you will never face it alone. No one gets left behind. They were young enough to believe nothing could ever separate them. Then Y/N disappeared. Taken from Hogwarts without warning, hidden behind powerful magic, and cut off from everyone she loved, Y/N spent years waiting for Sirius and Remus to find her. She knew they were alive. She could still feel the faintest traces of their blood bond beneath her skin. Surely they would come. They had promised. But weeks became months. Months became years. And nobody came. Eventually, Y/N stopped waiting. Years later, Hogwarts offers Y/N a teaching position, bringing her back to the castle she once called home—and face-to-face with the two men she never expected to see again. Sirius Black. Remus Lupin. They are stunned to discover she’s alive. Y/N is furious to discover they apparently lived their lives without her. Their reunion isn’t tearful. It isn’t romantic. And it certainly isn’t happy. Because Sirius and Remus claim they searched for her. They claim their letters were returned. They claim they were eventually given proof that Y/N wanted them to stop looking. Y/N never received a single letter. Someone lied. And the moment the three of them are together again, the blood bond they created as teenagers awakens. Old scars begin to burn. Emotions bleed across the connection. Memories that should belong to one person are suddenly experienced by another. Y/N begins seeing flashes of Sirius desperately searching for her. Remus feels the nights she spent waiting beside a window for them to come. Sirius experiences the moment Y/N finally realized they weren’t coming. The truth might explain why they lost each other. It doesn’t erase the years they lost. Because even after Y/N learns

    No Vacancy for the Living

    You were supposed to inherit your grandmother’s quiet roadside motel—not a crumbling sanctuary for ghosts, wounded hunters, and creatures who had nowhere else to go. The Hollow Lantern sits on a forgotten stretch of highway where the fog never entirely lifts. To ordinary travelers, it is simply an old motel with flickering neon and stubborn plumbing. To the supernatural world, it is neutral ground. No hunting. No feeding. No violence. Anyone who breaks the rules answers to the motel itself. Unfortunately, nobody bothered to explain that part before handing you the keys. You have spent your entire life pretending you cannot see the dead. You ignore the woman singing in Room Six, the little boy playing beneath the stairs, and the shadow that has been standing at the edge of the woods since the night your grandmother died. You are doing a decent job of appearing normal—right up until Sam and Dean Winchester crash through your lobby doors carrying an unconscious Castiel. The brothers believe a string of disappearances is connected to the motel. Dean distrusts the creatures hiding inside its rooms. Sam suspects your grandmother was protecting something powerful. Castiel claims the building is alive, and whatever sleeps beneath it has begun calling your name. You only know that the motel is your home, its strange residents are becoming your family, and you refuse to let the Winchesters burn first and ask questions later. Forced to remain while the roads mysteriously loop back toward the Hollow Lantern, Sam and Dean begin helping you uncover your grandmother’s secrets. Sam becomes the person who listens when the voices of the dead grow overwhelming. Dean becomes the person who makes you laugh when fear threatens to swallow you whole. Somewhere between late-night research, salt-lined doorways, stolen pie, and arguments over who gets the last bed, the three of you become tangled together. But the motel is not trapping the Winchesters inside.

    Theo’s one rule

    The war is over, Hogwarts is rebuilding, and Y/N Nott returns for eighth year beside her twin brother, Theodore. Theo has always been her constant—her best friend, protector, and the person who understands her better than anyone. Draco Malfoy returns too, changed by everything he survived. Quieter, guarded, and carrying more guilt than he’ll admit, Draco trusts very few people anymore. Theo is one of them. Which makes Theo’s old warning incredibly inconvenient: Stay away from my sister. Between shared classes, sleepless nights in the common room, Hogsmeade weekends, teasing arguments, lingering touches, and unexpected moments of vulnerability, the line between Y/N and Draco begins to blur. Neither wants to hurt Theo or risk destroying his friendship with Draco, but keeping their growing connection secret may cause even more damage. When Theo finally realizes what’s happening between his twin sister and his best friend, the betrayal cuts deeper than either expected. Now Y/N and Draco must decide if what they have is worth the fallout, while Theo must decide whether protecting the people he loves means keeping them apart—or finally getting out of their way. An angsty, fluffy eighth-year Hogwarts romance filled with postwar healing, Slytherin banter, secret affection, jealousy, stolen kisses, protective Theo, sarcastic-but-soft Draco, heartbreak, friendship, and finding something beautiful after the war.

    The Girl who didn’t Burn

    When Sam Winchester walked away from hunting for Stanford, he never met Jessica Moore. Instead, he met Melanie—a sharp-witted, compassionate woman who made him believe a normal life might actually be possible. She became his home, his future, and the reason he dared to dream beyond monsters and motel rooms. Then the past came calling. The same demon hunting the Winchester family came for Melanie, intending to leave her burning on the ceiling just as it had planned all along. But this time, Sam made it back in time. He saved her before the fire could claim her, shattering the demon’s plans and destroying any chance they had of pretending a normal life was still possible. With nowhere else to go, Melanie joins Sam and Dean on the road. Thrust into a world of ghosts, vampires, ancient curses, and impossible choices, she learns that surviving monsters is only half the battle. The other half is surviving life in the cramped space between two brothers who have spent years carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders. At first, she’s simply Sam’s girlfriend—the one Dean insists he’s responsible for keeping alive. But endless miles, shared hunts, late-night diner meals, and countless near-death experiences begin to blur every line they thought existed. Dean finds himself falling for the woman who challenges him, understands him, and refuses to let him believe he’s beyond saving. Melanie discovers that beneath Dean’s bravado is a fiercely loyal heart she’s helplessly drawn to. As old wounds heal and new ones form, the three of them slowly realize that what they’re building isn’t a choice between brothers. It’s a family unlike anything any of them ever imagined. A complete reimagining of Supernatural from the very beginning—where Melanie survives the fire, Jessica never existed, and the Winchester story becomes one of love, healing, found family, and three people discovering that sometimes the road leads exactly where you’re meant to be.

    The girl who forgot forever

    No one knows how it happened. One hunt. One burst of ancient magic. One moment where Melanie disappeared—and when she woke up, every memory of the last several years had been erased. She remembers growing up. She remembers becoming friends with Bonnie Bennett and meeting Stefan Salvatore. She even remembers Mystic Falls before vampires became the center of her world. But Damon Salvatore? To her, he’s just a dangerous stranger with piercing blue eyes who keeps looking at her like she’s already broken his heart. Because she has. Before the spell, Melanie and Damon had fought for every inch of their relationship. They had survived Originals, Travelers, witches, heartbreak, death, and resurrection. They had finally built a love that felt unshakable—one fierce enough to make Damon believe he deserved happiness. Now she doesn’t remember falling for him. She doesn’t remember their first kiss, the nights spent laughing in the boarding house, the promises whispered in the dark, or the future they were quietly planning together. To her, Damon is simply the arrogant vampire everyone keeps insisting she once loved. Stefan and Bonnie become Melanie’s anchors as she struggles to rebuild a life that no longer feels like her own. They’re determined not to force memories that aren’t there, choosing instead to help her become herself again. Bonnie mourns the best friend who no longer shares years of inside jokes, while Stefan quietly watches his brother try not to fall apart. For Damon, every day is torture. He refuses to compel her feelings or manipulate her into remembering. If Melanie is going to love him again, it has to be because she chooses him—not because of old memories or magic. So he starts over. He becomes the man she can laugh with. The man who brings her coffee exactly how she likes it before she even realizes she likes it that way. The man who learns her favorite books all over again, who walks beside her without asking for anything in return, who lets

    Scent of Desire

    Years after the Battle of Hogwarts, the castle has become more than a school—a place for magical research, recovery, and rebuilding. Y/N arrives expecting a fresh start. Instead, ancient magic awakens something inside her that magical society believed had nearly disappeared. Y/N is an Omega. More specifically, she is a Crown Omega, an extraordinarily rare Omega capable of forming magical bonds with more than one compatible Alpha. And somehow, her magic recognizes five. Harry Potter. Draco Malfoy. Theodore Nott. Sirius Black. Remus Lupin. Each feels the pull differently. Harry becomes quietly protective. Draco fights every instinct dragging him toward her. Theo watches, learns, and somehow always knows what she needs. Sirius hides genuine feelings beneath shameless flirting and laughter. Remus understands better than anyone that instinct does not mean ownership—and refuses to let magic make Y/N’s decisions for her. Because compatibility is not destiny. Ancient Crown Omegas could choose one Alpha, several, all of their compatible partners… or none at all. Magic only reveals what could exist. Y/N decides what becomes real. This is a choose-your-love-interest romance. There is no predetermined main love interest or canon endgame. Y/N’s choices determine which relationships grow, which remain friendships, and who ultimately earns her heart. Choose Harry. Choose Draco. Choose Theo. Choose Sirius. Choose Remus. Choose more than one. Choose them all. As attraction, jealousy, ancient magic, postwar healing, and complicated feelings collide within Hogwarts’ walls, five powerful wizards may want the same Omega—but only Y/N gets to decide who she wants in return.

    The Blue Ghost

    The Blue Ghost The last thing Melanie remembered was the sound of monsters closing in as she smiled through her tears and traded her life for Dean Winchester’s. It was worth it. Dean lived. Sam lived. That was enough. Except death wasn’t the end. After years trapped in Purgatory, Melanie claws her way back to Earth—scarred, stronger, and with bright blue hair that marks her as someone entirely different. The first thing she does is search for the only people she has ever truly loved. She finds them laughing together in a roadside diner. Alive. Safe. Happy. From the doorway, it looks like they’ve moved on. Certain there’s no place left for her in their lives, Melanie slips away before either brother can see her. What she doesn’t know is that Dean and Sam have never stopped looking for her. Every hunt, every ancient text, every whispered rumor has been another desperate attempt to bring her home. So she becomes a ghost instead. Hunters across the country begin whispering about the mysterious “Blue Ghost”—a woman with electric blue hair who arrives before anyone else, leaves monsters dead, victims alive, and disappears before anyone can thank her. Sometimes all that’s left behind is a handwritten note. Sometimes it’s a sarcastic comment only the Winchesters would understand. Sometimes it’s a memory only Dean and Sam should recognize. The clues grow impossible to ignore. Dean swears he knows the handwriting. Sam recognizes the research. Every note feels like someone reaching for them… then running away before they can reach back. As the hunt for the Blue Ghost becomes personal, Dean and Sam race to catch the woman haunting every case before she vanishes for good. Because Melanie thinks she sacrificed herself for two men who learned to live without her. The truth is far crueler. They never stopped loving her. And they’re running out of chances to prove it.

    The Worst Heroes in Faerum

    The Worst Heroes in Faerûn Saving the world was supposed to be the hard part. Turns out, surviving peace is much worse. After defeating the Absolute, you, Astarion, Gale, and Karlach quickly discover that being legendary heroes doesn’t exactly make you employable. Banished from one city, politely “encouraged” to leave another, and somehow blamed for disasters that are only mostly your fault, the four of you take to the road as freelance adventurers. Unfortunately, your jobs are anything but ordinary. A dragon wants family counseling. A haunted inn is hosting a ghostly baking competition. A suspiciously friendly mimic refuses to stop following you around. Every quest seems to spiral into complete chaos, leaving behind bewildered villagers, hilarious stories, and just enough gold to afford another night at the nearest tavern. Somewhere between ridiculous adventures, late-night campfire conversations, and Karlach’s increasingly outrageous attempts at matchmaking, you begin to notice the lingering glances from two of your closest friends. Astarion hides his growing feelings behind endless teasing and dramatic sarcasm, while Gale’s hopelessly awkward attempts at romance are somehow even more charming than his magic. Neither realizes the other is falling just as hard—and you’re far too oblivious to see what’s happening until everyone else already has. With laughter around every corner, friendships that feel like family, magical mishaps, accidental fake dating, and two impossibly different men slowly stealing your heart, this adventure proves that sometimes the greatest treasure isn’t saving the world… It’s finding the people who make coming home feel like the best quest of all.

    The Boyfriend Clause

    Y/N’s plan for junior year was simple: keep her scholarship, survive her impossible statistics class, and avoid becoming the center of campus gossip. That plan falls apart the moment she accidentally tells the entire university that Dean Winchester is her boyfriend. Dean, the charming campus troublemaker with a heart far softer than he lets on, agrees to keep up the fake relationship—but only if Y/N helps him pass a class he’s in danger of failing. It seems like the perfect deal. Fake dates, convincing hand-holding, and a few staged kisses should be easy… right? Except nothing stays simple for long. Dean’s older brother, Sam, quickly becomes Y/N’s favorite study partner, always knowing exactly what to say when she’s overwhelmed. Stefan Salvatore, the kind and dependable resident advisor everyone trusts, has a habit of saving her a seat in class and making her feel seen. And Damon Salvatore? He’s sarcastic, infuriating, and determined to prove that fake relationships never stay fake. As campus rumors spread and feelings become impossible to ignore, Y/N realizes she isn’t just pretending anymore. Somewhere between late-night diner runs, football games, study sessions, coffee shop dates, movie marathons, and chaotic weekends with friends, she’s fallen for all four of them. Now she’ll have to decide whether risking her heart is worth losing the best thing that’s ever happened to her… or if maybe, just maybe, love doesn’t have to fit into everyone else’s expectations. A cozy college romance filled with fake dating, slow burns, endless banter, found family, and four unforgettable men who turn one tiny lie into the greatest love story Y/N never saw coming.
