Summary
Mystic Falls has always belonged to Elena Gilbert and whatever disaster follows her. You have never had much interest in being part of it. Especially not the crazy Vampire drama. After an overdue breakup leaves you more bitter than heartbroken, you go to a Founders' event with little more than the intention of making it through the night. That's when you cross paths with him...
Elijah Mikaelson.
There is something unsettling about him, something you can't quite place. He is polite, composed, old-fashioned, and somehow, he makes you feel less alone. What begins as a quiet connection becomes something neither of you expected.
Somewhere along the way, you cross paths with Klaus, unlike Elijah, there is nothing quiet about the way he enters your life. There is something immediate about him, something almost instinctive, as though some unseen thread has been pulling you toward the same moment long before either of you knew the other existed.
What's a girl to do?

Summary
Hazel was living her boring and yet simple life in the twenty-first century when an event changed the course of her life forever.
And perhaps for someone else as well.
(please read the tags, spoilers for every season and movie)
NOTE AUTHOR AUGUST 2026 : Currently editing my other ofc/tommy; I want to be proud of it too, so I'm editing it for the last time. Sorry for the wait. Hazel and Tommy are 100% on my mind, don't worry (✯◡✯). I just tend to rush all my stories, and afterwards I'm a bit disappointed with the result, so I have to edit forever until I finally reach what I wanted to do from the start. Thank you for your patience! (◕‿◕)♡

Summary
"You protect me. I take care of you."
Birmingham, 1919. A woman fleeing the ashes of the Russian Revolution takes a job as bookkeeper at the Shelbys’ betting shop under a false name. Her accent doesn’t match her papers. Her past is a secret she guards fiercely. But she keeps her head down, and the ledgers stay flawless.
Until Thomas Shelby starts asking questions.
He doesn’t trust her. She doesn’t flinch when he looks her in the eye. What begins as suspicion slowly turns into something else—something fragile, and dangerous, forged in silence, loyalty, and the desperate need for protection. Something neither of them can afford to lose.

Summary
"Where did that crusty old winged freak send me off to?!"
If someone went up to Sarah and told her that a weeping angel would take her from her home in 2026 and drop her not only in the 1920s but in the Peaky Blinders 1920s, she would have asked which episode and season of Doctor Who that came from and where she could watch it.
Yet here she was, in Netflix's Peaky Blinders, and now wondered if she would die by razor, gun, or the smoke.

Summary
Thomas Shelby notices things most men don’t.
Astrid Björk keeps her head down, her hands steady, and her past where it belongs: behind her. London is work. Survival. She's managed to climb her way out of the gutters and found a stable job. Something she loves. Something she's good at. She doesn't care about anything else.
She does not care about Thomas Shelby when he walks into the tailor shop. She wants no part in his life.
Unfortunately, that has never stopped Thomas Shelby.Takes place between season 2-3. Canon divergence: Tommy Killed Grace when he found out about her betrayal. Otherwise, I've followed canon as closely as possible.

Summary
An American funeral director crosses the road while thinking about coffee in 2016 and finds herself in London in the wrong century, with a messenger bag and absolutely no time to panic because panic has never solved anything.
Her grandfather always warned her about crossroads. She thought he was being metaphorical. Turns out he wasn't.
She has no plan, no papers, and no plausible explanation for anything she knows. What she does have is a mortician's calm that translates surprisingly well into wartime, a brain that won't stop cataloguing, and the unparalleled stubbornness of a woman who intends to survive whatever life throws at her.
Probably.

Summary
Gwendoline Ashford has spent most of her life on her own terms, ignoring the scrutiny of London society. But at the age of twenty, the gentle insistence of her parents has brought her back to the Ton, where debutantes compete for attention, and whispered alliances can shape a life. She does not care to catch the eye of any man, least of all Anthony Bridgerton, whose reputation for charm, wit, and control precedes him. Yet when Anthony goes behind her back to secure a marriage for his own reasons, Gwen finds herself caught between anger, obligation, and an unexpected intrigue that refuses to be ignored. In a season of elegant balls, whispered gossip, and ever-watchful eyes, two very different people must navigate a union forged by duty where every glance, every touch, and every unspoken thought threatens to unravel their carefully constructed restraint.

Summary
Born from a forbidden love and raised under the watchful eye of royalty, Lilliana-the Queen's dazzling niece-was never meant to be ordinary. She speaks the harsh truth, walks with purpose, and keeps her heart guarded behind a thousand secrets.
When she crosses paths with the charming big brother of her new friend, Lilliana finds herself entangled in a dangerous game.
Anthony Bridgerton: sharp-tongued, stubborn, and impossible to ignore.What begins as a battle of wit and will, quickly turns into something more -a slow-burning tension that threatens to unravel them both.
The next question lingers in the air, heavy with intrigue and possibility-Can love truly flourish this season? Only time shall tell, dear readers, and I think that even the most guarded hearts cannot escape the heave of fate.

Summary
Lady Y/N Ashbourne was never meant to return to London. Not after her family’s disgrace, not after the duel that nearly destroyed her brother, and certainly not after ten years of silence from the very people who once called her their own. But when the Season begins and the pressure to reclaim her name becomes too great to ignore, she enters the ballroom with her chin high, her gloves spotless, and her secrets buried deep.
She expects whispers. She expects rejection. She does not expect the Viscount.
Anthony Bridgerton has no time for sentiment, and even less for scandal—but when he sees Y/N again, no longer the stubborn girl chasing her brother through the gardens of Aubrey Hall, but a composed and wounded woman standing alone, he makes a decision that surprises everyone, himself most of all.
A marriage of convenience, inked in silence and necessity.
But beneath the terms of the contract lie a decade of unspoken words, old regrets, and something else neither of them dares to name.Because love was never part of the arrangement.
Until, somehow, it is.Bookmarked by ValeryTae
