["Promise me that."

"Of course."]

(Y/n) Hargreeves, A.K.A. "Number 8: The Geode."

(Y/n) grew up alongside seven other children who were collected by Sir Reginald Hargreeves to form the illustrious "Umbrella Academy." However, unlike the others she got in an incident with her powers early on that left her petrified in rock. 

By the time she had gotten out, the other children were long gone, and even Luther had been on the moon for two years. For a time, her favorite companion was a ferret she called the Polish word for "nine."

Following the untimely death of her legal guardian, (Y/n) is reunited with her powered associates, only to be thrown into a mission to save the world when a familiar pint-sized ally returns to report doomsday is quickly approaching.

Disclaimer: I do not own The Umbrella Academy, nor its characters. Additionally, the events and lots of the dialogue either don't belong to me or it's paraphrased! I only own the canon details of the inserted character, Dzie, Arthur, and any other non-canonical characters or events that I add myself.

Five Hargreeves: Timeless Temptation by XCX_Stories_V
36 parts Ongoing Mature
Five Hargreeves has always distrusted Number Eight. From the moment they met, they hated each other-competing at every turn. But when Eight is injured on a mission and disappears after a heated argument with Five, everyone believes she's dead-except Five. Two weeks later, Five storms out of the Academy, only to be trapped in the apocalypse, leaving a hole in the family. In 2019, the family reunites for Sir Reginald Hargreeves' funeral. But it's not just a funeral-it's a reunion. Both Five and Eight return, but something is off about them both. Eight claims she spent the years in a coma, but Five isn't convinced. As he works to stop the impending apocalypse, his suspicions grow. What Five doesn't know-and what Eight hasn't revealed-is that she didn't spend the years in a coma. She joined the Commission, and the truth of where she's been is buried deep. While Five is consumed with saving the world, he can't stop thinking about her. Will she reveal the truth? Or is she playing a dangerous game? Meanwhile, Diego, who shared a connection with Eight during their childhood, is drawn to her again. But where Five sees lies, Diego sees something else. Can Eight's truth heal the family, or will it tear them apart? In the world of the Umbrella Academy, trust is fragile, but desire is a dangerous thing. When the world is ending, do you really have time for romance? If you are looking for a book that's filled with a slow burn romance between two people who deeply hate each other and a love triangle that will leave you feeling divided? This is the book for you.
