Summary
Marinette saw Cerise pick up the knife and trace the tip of it, expression twisting. Her finger came away red and slightly pricked.
Marinette’s brows shot to the sky and she gasped at the display. Had Cerise pressed into it deliberately to…?
“Hey! What are you—”
“Ow!” Cerise yelped, the knife clattering to the floor, “Wow, that's sharp!"
Marinette grabbed her arm in a panic, but that strange smile greeted her when she looked up. It's like Cerise had gotten exactly what she wanted. But that couldn't be it, right?
She held up her finger to Marinette's, which was now just as mangled.
"We match, at least," She said softly, deadly soft.
Marinette is left scrambling after a long-coming confession to Adrien goes completely sideways. Isolated and reeling from the fallout, who better suited to come to her rescue than the darkness that lurks in her shadow? -

Summary
Adrien Agreste, in all his cigarette-scented leather perfection, was the last person Marinette envisioned to face at the base of their collège steps so late in the afternoon, and Adrien likewise.
Who knew one chanced meeting could change everything?

Summary
A faint memory of her father flashed in her mind, the one where he was drilling into her about the hazards of becoming expendable. Another memory intruded, more recent as it took place a few days ago; Nathalie had shared a bed tent with Gabriel and Emilie. Emilie had taken her arm hostage in her slumber, snuggling it as one would a beloved stuffed animal. Gabriel had been curled around his wife at the time, his arm slung across her middle while his fingertips ghosted the exposed skin of Nathalie’s wrist from the latter’s disturbance. She risked a peek at their sleeping faces, wanting so wantonly to caress them with the fondness she buried in her heart.
Dying alone sure was lonely when you had people you loved that were none-the-wiser.

Summary
Two years after leaving home, Adrien has a room, a loving found family, and a thankless job with Audrey Bourgeois, the only figure in fashion with enough clout to bypass his father’s blacklisting.
He also has a zero percent success rate when it comes to courting Marinette Dupain-Cheng, Audrey’s relentlessly brilliant protégé.
With two miraculouses in the mix, it all gets a little complicated.

Summary
"Which means you," Dr. Choi turns to the other woman, "are my two o'clock appointment. Ryu Rumi?"
"Yes," she says, standing up and extending her hand for a handshake. She has a diplomatic smile on her face, charming and practiced to perfection. Mira can hardly imagine what it's like to be on the receiving end of it.
Dr. Choi, however, is apparently immune. She puts one hand on her waist and looks up at Rumi with a glare. She holds Rumi's client file up with her other.
"Rumi-nim, respectfully, this is the worst intake form I've ever seen in my life. "
Mira holds back a snicker.
Or what if Rumi was werewolf but also was a college professor, and what if Zoey was a vet, and what if Mira had 5 cats and one had IBS too, and they were in a romantic comedy what then

Summary
“Look at me,” Emilie entreats, leaning forward as Nathalie leans away, shrinking in on herself, ignoring the command. Shoulders stiff, hands restless on the bed as if they’d kissed chastely and nothing more. She can’t even hide the wavering of her apology, quiet though it is.
“What happened, Nathalie?”
Nathalie closes her eyes, letting out a sigh. Her throat too constricted for words.
Hand beneath her chin now, lifting it up. Pink-orange light through her eyelids. “Well, this isn’t just jet lag,” huffs Emilie. “I think you can admit that much to me."
Nathalie opens her eyes, meeting Emilie's with intensity. Tears pooling on Emilie’s hand cupping her cheek.
Tenderly, Emilie drops her voice. “Out there—Did something happen between you and—?”
Nathalie makes a mistake. Emilie helps absolve her.

Despite their apparent displeasure at being forced to collaborate on this mission, will the two ever be able to set aside their differences and respect one another as the formidable warriors they are?
