Summary: When Armin Arlert moves to the rainy town of Forks to live with his grandfather for the rest of his high school career, he doesn’t really think much will come of it.

But when he catches sight of the beautiful but oddly terrifying Annie Leonhart, he finds himself drawn to her in ways he’d never expected. However, Annie is mysterious and unreadable, yet this only makes Armin want to know more about her, consequences be damned – even if it puts his own life in danger.

But when she sees an old childhood friend, Armin, now the gardener of the estate, it brings up unaddressed feelings Annie was never prepared for. Spending the summer rekindling their friendship stirs up more than she bargained for – will she be able to reap what she’d sown from the seeds that were planted in their past, and have a taste of the forbidden fruit before her?

Summary: In the midst of the Rumbling, on the boat to Odiha, Armin and Annie let themselves share a moment of weakness, which leads to something neither of them is prepared for: Annie is pregnant.

However, their relationship has been strained ever since the Rumbling ended. The news of Annie’s pregnancy and the expectation that Armin will travel further south in Marley to begin negotiations, along with anyone who will accompany him, bring more challenges than they had anticipated.

Yet, in spite of all of the difficulties these new circumstances may bring, they might just bring the two of them back together again.

Summary: Following the death of one of her best friends in an accident she feels she caused, Annie isolates herself from those closest to her until her agreement to help her friend, Armin, move into his new apartment finally forces her out of her solitude.

But whilst helping him unpack, she encounters something she hadn’t expected: a large box of BDSM-related sex toys. Even though they agree to never speak of it again, she can’t get it off her mind, so she eventually goes to him with a proposition: a friends with benefits relationship.

However, the more they sleep together, the more the lines between friends and lovers blur, leaving Annie to grapple with their newfound connection whilst still processing her grief.

In the mess of it all, like daisies in a meadow, can something real bloom?
