“Who are you? What do you want?” Percy asked them.
“I’m Jason, and this is Nico.” The long man said pointing to himself and then the other man. “As for what we want,” He said walking closer, uncomfortably so. “We want you.”
Or, Percy is walking home one day when two mysterious men drag him into an alley.

“I admire your resilience, child of Man.”
It whispered, its shinsu flooded him with warmth, enveloping Bam in a comforting embrace.
“Humans truly are despicable.” It was soft, but there was an undertone of sadness coloring its voice. A mournful trill left the administrator, an apology Bam didn’t deserve.
(Or when FUG was too greedy, and Bam had to pay the price of their greed with every fiber of his being.)

I was a mess, when I first got back to the Archives after Prentiss. I mean, I’d been a bit of a mess before, trying to handle a new job and a crap boss and everything, but this was— I like to think I’m pretty good at keeping it together, you know? It’s— It’s easy when everyone else is falling apart. Easier. But when it’s just me… I, look, I know it’s predictable. The guy who takes care of everybody else because he can’t take care of himself.

Summary
"Astar-" she cuts off as he turns his gaze on her. He's not even attempting to hide the resentment and hostility, but hunger is overwhelming every other emotion and when he smiles, it is nothing less than predatory.
“Interested in holding me in debt, are you Ataveska? That desperate to own a part of me that you’d bleed for it?” it’s taunting and sharp, all pretense of civility gone, however thin.
Tav blinks. And then blinks again. Because, if she’s perfectly honest, the idea didn’t even occur to her, too caught up in him and this sudden awareness of his edges getting cutting and more brittle. Too caught up in seeing the wide whites of his eyes and her own unexplainable urge to satiate. But now that he’s brought it up- Her eyes are glowing, she knows, salivating at the thought and his mouth is still twisted in a merciless sneer.
“You’re just as hungry as I am.”
Or
The first time Tav met Astarion (and all the times she already had.)

Summary
Stiles Stilinski meets The Wolf King, the very boogeyman he'd spent his younger years terrified of; yet the man is little, if anything, like the tales he's heard. But, Stiles has spent the last ten years of his life as a slave, under the harsh whip of the cruel King Gerard Argent, and trusting Derek - trusting anyone - is beyond difficult.

Summary
“What happened? Where are you? What’s that sound?”
Derek jumped, having momentarily forgotten Scott was on the phone with him because Stiles had started moving. He’d stalked over to the other side of the cave, still eying Derek warily and growling, then settled protectively over a mass of clothes, leaves and animal innards. It was probably where he was sleeping.
Lovely. No wonder he smelled like death.
“Stiles,” Derek said, answering Scott’s question. Or, one of them, at least.
“Stiles? What do you—Stiles is making that noise?”
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“How fast do you think you can make it to the south lot of the Preserve?”

"I'll destroy her," rings in his ears and he's shocked by how shamed he is he ever said those words. He’d meant them, oh how he’d meant them. He’d been lost to his rage and he’d thought he could … he knows now that he could never hurt her.
Rey ...
Then Kylo pulls himself to his full height. She rejected him. Met his offer with going for a weapon. Like she always does. She always, always strikes first. Shooting at him on Takodana, attempting to on Starkiller Base … she was even the one to ignite her blade in those snowy woods.

(In Willing Sacrifice, by GeMerope)
I admit I forgot about this fic for a while, long enough for more than a dozen chapters to be posted. Returning to it now, I am pleased to say that it's even better than I remembered it being. Any work with a plot so compelling that I lose sleep in order to read it, is well-recommended in my book.
Waiting for Ch. 63+

Though raised with magic and sword by his side, he faces a tumultuous path that takes him to Camelot and brings with it a destiny he never believed in. But at every turn he faces the consequences of his actions, unwilling as they might be, and his two secrets—magic and his dusty title— have never been close to tearing apart the life he built for himself in Camelot until a letter finds its way into Arthur's hands.
And the two lives Merlin has led begin to bleed together.

Endeavor felt uneasy under that icy blue gaze. The hero couldn't put a finger on what exactly made him so unsettled by the villain, but something stirred under his skin and twisted his gut under that stare.
"Of course it would be you. It had to be." Dabi laughed but it sounded like glass was in his throat, like it had another meaning Endeavor couldn't catch, some kind of inside joke he didn't understand.

LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant.
1971 - 1995This IS a wolfstar fic, but incredibly slow burn. Literally years. Long build up but worth it I promise!
PLEASE DO NOT COPY TO WATTPAD. SERIOUSLY, WHY??
