Corruption. Brutality. Deception. Injustice. Four words that describe Gotham city in a nutshell. Sure, they may have their Dark Knight, but he's not the sign of hope the people need. He's a product of what the debauched city is capable of creating in times of desperation. He's harsh, unorthodox, and can turn entirely apathetic when it comes to extracting information and serving his 'justice'.Then, there is Eve.Decently new to the unwritten policies and way of life in Gotham, she's untainted and impervious to the corruption wrought crime capital. Eve has been aiding Jim Gordon with a few cases privately - due to her being a private investigator - but for her discretion, he has remained unwaveringly silent, despite the rest of the precinct hounding him for his suspicious efficiency in case closing.A mob war is peeking over the horizon, threatening to run the streets with blood, bullets and a high body count. With the mafia families and rogues on high alert, the last person they would ever expect to dismantle their carefully organised operation is an uncorrupted, virtuous woman from the sunny city of Greenville, South Carolina.Filled with crime, ass-kicking, deception, love and the dramatic flair of Gotham's top drama queens - otherwise known as the infamous Rogue's Gallery - 'One Winter Knight' tells a tale of Evangeline Winter unwittingly intertwining herself within the tendrils of Gotham's criminal underworld, whilst unintentionally catching the eyes of a certain rodent dressed vigilante and an ex-DA turned crime boss whilst she's at it.And when does our audacious story begin you ask? Quite simple really.One cold winter's night, in the notorious, dark city of Gotham.(Two Face/Eve, Batman/Eve and a bit of Riddler/Rebecca pairing)**DISCLAIMER: I don't own DC comics or any of their characters. I only own Eve, Rebecca, half of the plot and a few characters later on. All rights belong to DC.****Eventually follows an AU timeline of the Arkham Games.**…

"I'm tired of this anger, but this anger never tires."~Lillian "the Nightingale" Nightshade; daughter of Loki, assassin, and Avenger (trainee). No longer is she a metaphorical rock in SHIELD's boot, but rather the boots of HYDRA and numerous other enemies of the Avengers. The girlfriend of her favourite boy toy Captain Crunch - otherwise known as Steven Grant Rogers - finally has everything she could've possibly ever wanted. Dysfunctional but irreplaceable family, moronic yet endearing friends, and a righteous Boy Scout boyfriend. What more could a snarky, sarcastic assassin possibly need?No longer does she feel despaired, or broken, or used, or controlled. She wears her battles, both won and lost, proudly on her skin, her very own armour against all the villains the galaxy has to throw at her.Never again did she think, that heroes rather than villains, would be the ones to cut underneath that very armour.A murderous male Siri on his period, a scarlet bitch who almost made her murder the man she loves, a cocky speedster flirting with her baby sister, and the return of those goddamn stones that she wants nothing to do with, end up being the least of her problems. Enemies, she knows. Enemies, she can fight without an ounce of remorse.But choosing to fight either her best friend or the love of her life?That's a battle Lillian Nightshade knows she can't win, even if she wanted to.BOOK THREE OF THE NIGHTINGALE CHRONICLESSET DURING AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON - CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR** I do not own any Marvel or comic characters.

"Trouble is my middle name." ~ Lillian Nightshade is a metaphorical rock in SHIELD's boot, one that not only has a mouth snarkier and more sarcastic than the hypothetical (and entirely impossible) baby of Tony Stark and Deadpool, but has a certain knack for slipping from the authorities' grasp on a regular basis. She's arrogant, she's witty, she's satirical, she's immature and she's one of the best damn assassins in the industry. Steve Rogers is the hero every man wants to be. He has a strong sense of duty, honour, dignity and humility, with old fashioned, idealistic goals that would make the world a better place. Some - namely Stark - would call him a stick in the mud and make a mockery of him by pinning him with obscene names like 'Fourth of July Stripper' or 'Walking Flagpole', but in the end, he's America's sweetheart with a golden legacy that will last for generations. So it's only natural that the two complete opposites - who are also each other's enemies- to clash the moment they meet one another, yes? Filled with action, revenge, old adversaries, humour and of course the lovely drizzle of a bipolar romance, this is the story of how a narcissistic assassin falls for one of Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Her enemy.

War. Death. Conquest. Famine.The Four Horsemen of the apocalypse.Of course, they're not to be mistaken for the literal apocalyptic Four Horsemen, for it's only the name of their team. However, whilst they may not be the Armageddon-sent Horsemen, their aliases still strike a stone cold, petrifying fear into the cores of their enemies and allies.Chase, Jordan, Estelle and Lucas however? Well... they're about as terrifying as Mike Wazowski.Meet the protagonist of the book; Estelle Aveline. Or, as she is more commonly known as; Conquest the Horseman. No one knows Conquest is a female, because she's more so the stay at home in her pyjamas and hack the President's computer or SHIELD for kicks kind of girl. She is though, the most important member of the team. She holds the other three boys together.So when Victor Von Douche burns down the Horsemen's public mansion, steals $3.2 million from them, ruins and demolishes all their computers and manages to give severe burns to War in the fire, what are the Horsemen to do? Hunt him down of course. And whose help do they unfortunately need to do so?The Fantastic Four.Yet in the midst of war, what if the Horsemen's identities are finally revealed?

"Show me a hero and I'll write you a tragedy." - F. Scott Fitzgerald~Victoria Morana Kingsley is average in nearly every aspect of her life. She isn't a great fighter. She isn't a brilliant genius. She doesn't have the greatest paying career. And on top of it all, she's not the most social butterfly in the world. There is, however, one teensy tiny thing that separates her from your average human being.She can talk to the dead.Although, they're not the most stimulating source of conversation in the world.Necromancy is a magical art as old as time itself, and in a time of Gods, magic and super heroes, being discovered for what she is, is the last thing Tori wants. But upon finding a man with a metal arm collapsed in the snow on the side of the road - who five years prior tried to kill her - not being discovered for what she is becomes all that much harder. Throw a budding, complex romance into the midst, and you have the beginnings of a story of grisly chaos, black magic, old friendships, witch hunts, death of various kinds and irregular love.For true, unrequited love, is not finding someone who silences your demons, but whose demons dance well with your own.***I obviously do not own any Marvel or comic characters. I only own Victoria, the plot, and a few characters that appear later on in the story. All rights are reserved to Marvel comics.…

"My hands are stained with dirt. And they always will be."~Lillian Nightshade; assassin, Captain America's girlfriend, and number one magnet for bullsh*t and bad luck. For her entire life, she's been told what to, who to kill, who she is, and what she's meant to be. And now? Thanks to her history of daddy issues that could rival Shellhead's, she finds herself kidnapped by father of the year Loki Laufeyson and held hostage in a realm far from her favourite boy toy's reach.Asgard.Struggling with her own sense of identity whilst simultaneously trying to escape the clutches of a god with fabulously glorious hair, by the time Lillian finds herself returning to the world she knows, she begins to notice a suspicious amount of change within it. HYDRA apparently died with the Red Skull, SHIELD hasn't fallen, the battle of Braga never went down, and Steve Rogers doesn't seem to remember her. It's almost as if she's...Gone back in time?Between balancing the timeline, trying not to spoil the future, righting wrongs committed the first time around and dealing with a butt tonne of family drama, Lillian simply can't catch a break from all the bad luck she attracts. Throw a familiar metal armed World War II soldier turned HYDRA weapon into the mix, and the Nightingale might just be in over her head. In spite of it all, will the two complete opposites, Steve and Lillian, find their way to each other's lives once again? Or is their romance lost, a faded memory stored away for rainy days? For she may have their love to light the way, but where there is light, there will always be its older sibling.Darkness.BOOK TWO OF THE NIGHTINGALE CHRONICLES**I obviously don't own any Marvel or comic characters.

"Hell's Kitchen is a jungle, and every jungle has a snake."~In a world that has seen a billionaire fly across the sky in an iron suit, a 95 year old super hero thaw out of the ice, Norse gods fall from the heavens, an enormous green rage monster tear up Harlem and aliens invade New York City, an everyday sniper and expert marksman with exceptional sight isn't as thrilling or alarming as snipers used to be.Leena Kovac - otherwise known as the Black Snake - however, is just an everyday sniper and expert marksman with exceptional sight. Deaf, sure, but that's nothing her hearing aids can't fix.But she's never had to take down a vigilante before, one called 'The Devil of Hell's Kitchen' no less.When two of her regular clients, the Ranskahov brothers of Hell's Kitchen, hire her to take out a local vigilante stirring trouble, Leena didn't imagine it would end up with the Kingpin Wilson Fisk murdering the Russians she had come to know. Leena doesn't generally doesn't touch another super powered individual or hero with a ten foot pole, so forming a shaky alliance with the man she was originally hired to shoot, isn't exactly a minor challenge.Wrought with crime, gunpowder, morally questionable grey areas, and a very thin line between justice and revenge, this story tells the tale of a regular sniper getting caught in the crossfire between organised crime and a gifted vigilante. The Devil is known for temptation, but Leena would be a fool to fall for a man crazy and brave enough to think he could tackle every crime family in this city. I guess what her mother said about her was true.One part brave, three parts fool.COMING SOON IN 2018**Disclaimer: I (obviously and unfortunately) don't own the Marvel Netflix series' characters and plot, or any Marvel comic or MCU characters.
