    Summary

    Agatha Harkness never wanted to inherit a house in the middle of nowhere. Much less one filled with magical runes, locked doors and suspicious whispers coming from the basement. She just wanted a peaceful fresh start after a messy divorce. Peace, solitude and a bunny.

    But Westview isn’t peaceful, the house isn’t normal, and the creature in the basement didn’t want to stay quiet.

    Rio Vidal is a centuries-old vampire. Dramatic, addicted to VHS tapes, and with an annoying tendency to invade Agatha’s life (and heart) with sarcastic comments and bad ideas. Centuries ago, she helped the ancient Harkness coven seal a powerful witch beneath the house. Now, she depends on Agatha to keep the seal intact.

    Summary

    Rio stared at her quietly, slowly tapping her foot against the tiled floor. A wrinkle formed between her eyebrows from thinking about Agatha's predicament, and the lawyer sighed, waving her hand dismissively.
    "Stop trying to find a solution to this. It will give you a stroke."
    "Marry me," Agatha was glad she had finished her drink because she would spill it all over the bar at the words. She blinked to regain her composure, her mind scrambling for a teasing remark to fire back at Rio, but her tongue could only form one word.
    "What?"
    "I'm not a stranger from Craigslist, and I know probably most psychopaths would say that, but I'm not a psychopath. So, marry me."
    ---
    Agatha learns about a clause in her mother's will that makes her unable to inherit Evanora's fortune unless she gets married by forty. While drowning her sorrows at a bar, she meets Rio, a PhD student working behind the bar to make ends meet, who proposes an insane solution to her problem. Or rather, proposes to Agatha.
    Everything spirals out of control after that.

    Summary

    The four of them lay there for a while longer, the bed filled with the cozy chaos of a young family on big days. Rio stretched her arms over her head. “I vote we skip all responsibility today and just stay here forever.”

    “Tempting,” Agatha admitted, her hand drifting down to rest on their daughter's small back. “But I think someone would riot if he missed his first day of school.”

    “I wouldn’t riot,” Nicky said indignantly, then paused. “But I’d be really, really sad.”

    “Exactly,” Agatha said, kissing his forehead. “And we can’t have that.”

    Summary

    When Agatha uproots her life for a chance to save her chronically ill son, she finds herself in a new city, at a new hospital, under the care of a doctor she’s never met, but feels a strange sense of connection to.

    Dr. Rio Vidal is brilliant, enigmatic, and deeply committed to her work. As Nicky begins treatment under her care, both women are forced to confront pasts they’ve tried to outrun, truths that don’t fit inside charts, and an undeniable pull that threatens to unravel everything they once thought they knew.

    Some lines shouldn’t be crossed but some people make you want to risk everything.

    Summary

    the Souls murmur about a witch’s soul– so vibrant, so fiercely alive that no spell, no curse, can contain it. Instead of death’s finality, the spirit witch devours power itself. Rio Vidal must intervene. But as she steps into the chaos, The living magic refuses to be subdued, and the lines between hunter and hunted blur in ways she never anticipated.
    ---------
    "How do I kill that woman?" Death inquired of Lilia, who somehow seemed to dwell beyond the confines of her own realm. The divination witch chuckled softly, her gaze playfully mocking as she relished Rio’s confusion and uncertainty.

    "I thought it was your job to collect souls," Lilia questioned, confusion etched across Rio’s face.

    Lilia’s laughter echoed again, shameless and teasing. "I’ve tried killing Agatha," Rio said with murder apparent in her tone, "but her soul just glows—reviving her instantly. It’s as if I’m feeding her power, not ending her."

    Death spat, her fingers dangerously playing with her dagger. "How do I kill that—"

    Lilia cut her off, amused by Rio’s frustration. "You can’t kill that woman," she declared, her voice dripping with infliction. "Her body is a vessel—of death and life alike."

    Summary

    Agatha Harkness is a 5th-grade English teacher at Nicky's school. She's very shy and not very active in the dating scene. After being cheated on by her girlfriend of 20 years, she decided never to fall in love again.

    Rio Vidal is a very successful businesswoman who adopted Nicky when her best friend (Nicky's birth mother) died in a car accident 8 years ago. One day, she has to pick up her son after he gets injured while playing with his friends at school. When she arrives, she finds him in Agatha's arms, she was his favorite teacher in the whole world (his words, not mine).

    But because of the love they both share for Nicky, they continue to endure each other's presence, and every day they grow closer and closer. With time, they learn that they may have much more in common than they thought. Agatha opens herself up more to love and desire, and Rio finally lets herself rest in the arms of a possible true love, a love that doesn't care for wealth or status, but for the simplest things in life.

    This is my first fic in YEARS, so I apologize for any mistakes (there’s no beta reading and this DEFINITELY didn’t go anywhere near AI).
