Hundreds of Years Overdue.
Y/N was Klaus’ first love. “Only love” according to him. However, it seemed a few hundred years apart was enough for him to forget his vows. To forget his commitment. To forget her. Once the world’s first heretic was awoken once more, she assumed she would find her husband intact. Her husband hers. Oh, how she was terribly wrong. He had painfully moved on. To Miss Caroline Forbes.

Misplaced Lunches and Hearts.
Light Yagami despised when the Task Force saw his ditzy girlfriend. She was only his to admire but when she showed up to his workplace to deliver his lunchbox like the ‘good little girlfriend’ she was, his annoyance showed no limits. He knew how sensitive his girlfriend was. He knew he shouldn’t have talked in such tone to her. But he couldn’t show any sign of weakness in front of the Task Force, in front of L.

The Emperor’s Demise.
The emperor of the most desired kingdom, the warrior who reduced any marriage proposal to null. Everyone expected the cold-hearted leader to drive his bloodline to the ground. So did he, at some point. Until he found her. To him it felt like the land and the skies had collided to provide him such a perfect maiden. He wasn’t going to lose her. Not now. Not ever.

The Harlot Stays.
Being a prostitute in one of Klaus Mikaelsons’ bars wasn’t easy as a human in the 1920s. It meant showing a blind eye to the bloodshed that would ensue ever so commonly. Were they cannibals? Inhuman? It was hard to tell but Y/N couldn’t leave. She needed the money and the only way to recieve such generous pay was if she stayed and worked. Y/N was able to keep their heads down for as long as possible. Till Klaus Mikaelson noticed them. Oh shit. Y/N didn’t want to die. She attempted to flee. Y/N was no match for a hybrid like Klaus.

Teach Me To Sin.
He looks like heaven, but loving him was hell. Professor Tom Riddle wasn’t any ordinary man. Y/N didn’t hold ordinary love. It was wrong. She knew that. She shouldn’t like her professor—no, that was unimaginable. He had a wife. So why did her gaze continue to linger? Why did her fingers ache to touch him—such forbidden fruit. She wasn’t going to stop until she had him. Until he loved her.

No More Furry Business.
Tricking Tom Riddle while she was an animagus wasn’t truly Y/N’s intention. Not after everything. Perhaps in the beginning, she desired to understand such maniac’s brain. The longer she stayed in her Animagus form around him, the longer her streak of guilt would continue. But she couldn’t reveal herself now. Not when she knew the consequences of Tom realising a human was the one who saw him at his most vulnerable. He would make it his life’s mission to crush her. More than he did already. She needed to find a way around this all. Before he found out. He was Head of Year for a reason. [READ PREMISE]

Wizard’s Pick Of The Season.
Engagement Season has prevailed Wizarding Britain once more. Tom Riddle was now up for grabs. A dangerous suitor whom every soul desired to taste his immortality. A Duchess who’s only desire was to live alone and die young. How on Earth would Merlin intertwine their paths?

In Dead Matrimony.
Tom Riddle only considered this marriage as one of political power. Only as a heavy sign on paper. What he didn’t expect was his wife to be as cunning as he was—perhaps even more so. When he had expected her to sit silence and endure like a ‘good little wife’, she provoked and contradicted his every word and command. The marriage was complete. The sign done. He couldn’t go back now, it would prove negatively to his reputation. And, oh reputation did he worship.

Unwritten Whispers of Marriage.
Y/N thought lying about being married to the Imperial Duke would be easy considering he hadn’t been seen in public for years. Many thought he was dead or hideous. Neither was the case. So mid-way through bragging, when the Imperial Duke appears at a ball, Y/N thought she was done for. Her reputation tarnished and her ego burst. What she didn’t expect was for him to play along.

Height Wars. | ᴍᴀʀᴀᴜᴅᴇʀꜱ
Another messy year begun with the Marauders. Sirius was finally taller. He couldn’t wait to brag to his friends and finally make the short jokes. Nevermind. His hopes and dreams were meticulously crushed when he realised somehow his friends had miraculously grown over the summer and in fact could continue their short jokes. Welcome to the shitshow, Y/N.

An Apple A Day…
Having a calm doctor as a husband was not for the weak. Especially if said husband didn’t understand your desire to have an argument here and there. Yes, I know. ‘Weird’ but necessary. So now Y/N was giving him the silent treatment for a reason she couldn’t quite remember while loudly chomping on apples in front of him. Because you know what they say: ‘An Apple A Day Keeps The Doctor Away.’ And oh, Y/N was taking it ever so seriously.

Nurse Me Back To Health.
After Tom Riddle makes his first horcrux, chipping away his humanity, he doesn’t expect to find a nurse who’d bring him back to life. Being tied to the Hospital Wing wouldn’t stop Tom from already planning his second advance—yet the pretty student apprentice seemed to stall his mind momentarily. It wasn’t like Tom. Girls had no impact on him. Not until now. Not until an amateur nurse patched up his true loneliness.

Written Love Wars.
Scribing to your hidden love seems exhilarating until you find out it’s your political rival. Being the Crown Princess was rigid and full of propriety. So when random admiration letters and gifts show up for Y/N, it’s the most free she ever felt. Back and forth letters, wishing to know who she was writing to — until it all crashes. She now wishes she never knew. Because it was him.

A Thesis On Tension.
Tom Riddle and Y/N were two opposite sides of the same coin. Academics always came first. Tom would not tolerate a single subject where Y/N came out on top. Unfortunately for Tom, neither would she. Through endless torture of constant (polite) bickering in every single class they had together, no one could remember when such mutual animosity became something more… calmer. It didn’t make sense at all. They were academic rivals, there was nothing under such a thick blanket of hatred… was there?

Lab Rat.
Sirius Black failed. He failed to escape Azkaban. Now his fate was undetermined. The Ministry now knew he was an unregistered Animagus. His days now consisted of testing and labs rather than cyclical solitude. His hope felt shattered when he felt no relief from the pain the Ministey inflicted upon him. That was until a new research intern arrived to learn more on the animagi. Y/N didn’t expect the horrors of what she saw in such ‘clinic’, such torture, such servitude. She was determined to get Sirius out. And she wouldn’t stop until she was successful.

The Wrong Brother.
You believed courting Elijah Mikaelson was everything your heart desired. That you found yourself content with the life he’d provide you with. A simple, straightforward life. That’s what everyone desires, right? No worries, no issues, no rush of emotions. But Y/N wanted that rush. That giddy adrenaline rushing through their veins. Elijah couldn’t provide such feeling. It wasn’t his fault, it’s not what he was accustomed to. But there was one person that made Y/N feel ever so much alive. Klaus Mikaelson.
