Summary
When Dr. Leland Townsend found himself being attacked by a demonic creature, he was as confused as he was exasperated. He worked with demons; they were on the same side! So why was that thing targeting him?!
The Sixty didn’t know how to assist, so he decided to turn to the country’s leading scholar of demonology to help him track down and stop the demon that wanted to hurt him. The only problem was that the woman in question was the younger sister of a boy Leland went to school with—as Jake Perry.
Would she recognize him for the boy he used to be, and what would she think of the evil man he was now? Or could he trick her into seeing only Leland? Would she think that she could ‘fix’ him? How long until he corrupted her, or until one of them developed feelings for the other? And more importantly: could her theoretical knowledge of demonology, put together with his vast practical experience with the occult, be the solution required to put Leland back in control and save his life?

Summary
Ben Linus grew up knowing the tale of elusive mermaids - sirens - dwelling in the depths of the oceans that surrounded the Island. He knew them to be deadly with their enchanting song, but he never paid the stories any mind…until he unwittingly came across one of the creatures walking on land.
For the first time in centuries, the usually reclusive mermaids were starting to go head to head with the humans they hated. A political game was afoot and, as Ben scrambled to learn more about a powerful but captivating supernatural rival, he slowly discovered that maybe not all mermaids were monsters.
And what kind of love can rise from the darkest depths of the ocean itself? -

Summary
A new patient shows up in Leland’s office, concerned about the father of her unborn child. Soon after, the team receives a new case to investigate: a woman is supposedly pregnant with Lucifer’s baby, the future antichrist who might kickstart the apocalypse. David is concerned, Kristen and Ben are skeptical. Leland is hovering, attempting to protect the baby and keep the mother under his thumb.
As more signs point to the pregnancy being real, they grapple with the question: can a baby be blamed for the sins of the father? The church wants to get rid of the child, the mother wants to protect it, Leland wants to wield it as a weapon. What will each team do? Can a child of evil be just the thing to bring two warring sides closer together? And, when Leland and the mother become attracted to each other and slowly grow closer, will that affect the fate of the world?**

Summary
One of the oceanic survivors has latent psychic abilities and a suspicious background; Ben Linus is extremely concerned that it means she's more special than him--- a threat to his power. He might have to get rid of her. But there’s an undeniable connection between the two, an eventual fragile trust, and compassion. A team-up between the wary allies may be exactly what The Island wants.
(in other words, the author imagined what it would be like if Ben had someone willing to understand his point of view throughout the entire show, and this is sort of exploring that idea!)
