Summary
25yo Mezrah is a harlot, homewrecker, man-stealer, tramp-you name it. She's the kind of woman people love to hate and after being wrongfully cursed by a powerful magic user named Athy, Mezrah decides to live up to the image and do what she pleases, robbing men of their fortunes and turning the people who cross her into stone. She's convinced herself she's living good until she meets one clumsy bounty hunter that ends up stealing her heart rather than her head.
21yo Peryl has a lot on her plate. Not only is she a college student and a bounty hunter trying to break away from her male alter ego, she's also on a seemingly never-ending mission to protect her family and friends from threats like her father. When she finds out her half-sister has an arch-nemesis that's eager to kill her, Peryl is ready to deal with the threat herself...what she wasn't expecting was this arch-nemesis to be a traumatized woman whose beauty and charms leave Peryl tongue-tied.
As Mezrah gets sucked into Peryl's world, loyalties will be tested. Peryl will find out just how much her family has wronged Mezrah and Mezrah will have to decide what's more important to her: a life of revenge and endless riches or a life beyond that.

Summary
Percy sat up, tilting his head back and enjoying the feel of the sun on his skin. It had always followed him around, made him feel warm and happy. He wondered who the soul-mark on his hip was for, who his soulmate was, but deep down, he knew exactly who it was.
He knew how oblivious he could be. He knew how much he tried to shove the truth down, but it was becoming impossible to ignore. It was becoming impossible ignore that Apollo was his soulmate.
OR
A universe where soulmates exist; Percy is confused, Poseidon is keeping a secret, Apollo is curious, the gods are terrible, and the prophecy is much, much worse.

It is smoother then. Deep and warm.
Katsuki wonders if he has inhaled stonedust beyond his limits. He must have.

Summary
Acnologia had forgotten most of his life, yet the memories he lost found a way to haunt him- especially the memories regarding a certian woman.
After his fight against the dragon slayers, he had been taken captive by Alvarez, which allied with Fairy Tail for the very objective of defeating the black dragon. His only guard would be Eileen, who, while being as old as him, never forgot a slight. She remembered the man who Acnologia was, and she could see how fate had bound them to be tied in death, like they were in life.

Summary
She decides to follow their gaze, for lack of anything else to do. She’s not entirely sure why Nico brought her here first—if she’s not mistaken, this is not where the Door of Orpheus is. Or—no, she does know. She likes to think she knows Nico di Angelo decently well, as enigmatic as they may be. They want to make sure she’s sure about this.
Well, she already was. Has been. Rocks without bloodstains have been engraved into the back of her eyelids in shining Imperial Gold.

Summary
"And oh, that I might now give up my life for you! Or die with you! But since our destinies prevent us you shall always be with me, and you shall dwell upon my care-filled lips. The lyre struck by my hand, and my true songs will always celebrate you. A new flower you shall arise, with markings on your petals, close imitation of my constant moans: and there shall come another to be linked with this new flower, a valiant hero shall be known by the same marks upon its petals.”
