    Summary

    Azriel's life was a single dark thread in a tapestry of light. It seemed that everyone around him seemed to be finding their cauldron blessed mates; except for him. His family were now all too busy for him. Feyre and Rhysand had Nyx. Nesta and Cassian couldn't keep their hands off of one another. And Elain was off the table, as Rhysand had so kindly made clear. Alone. That's all Azriel was. All he was destined to be. His family didn't need him. Not anymore. Not truly. Not outside of work. How much longer would this continue until Azriel was forgotten entirely?

    Eris couldn't stand the sight of Autumn in such a state. It hurt him to see such a beautiful land run dry by such arrogant, greedy bastards. He had to kill his father. And soon. The alliance with Night was doing little to help him, and he was starting to struggle with holding up so many lies and façades. How much more could he take before he broke beneath the weight of his own schemes?

    Summary

    Nesta hasn’t heard the sound of a voice—familiar or otherwise—in five days. Not since Cassian slammed the balcony doors behind him on his way out after a particularly nasty argument, wingbeats like thunder retreating into the clouds.

    It seems that all she can do these days is anger the ones around her.

    She hasn’t left the House of Wind in two weeks. She hasn’t been allowed to. Not since Rhysand told her, voice black with rage, “If it wasn’t for Feyre, if you weren’t my brother’s mate, I would have had you executed for what you did.”

    Not since Amren said she belonged in one of the cells beneath the Court of Nightmares, because, “Some monsters don’t stay tamed, no matter how hard you try to civilize them.”

    Not since Mor stared at her and said to her cousin, “I don’t know why you’re surprised, Rhys. You’ve always known she’s reckless and useless in equal measure. She never did become one of us.”

    Not since Cassian stood in that same room and stayed silent.

    _____

    Even after the Mask is safely returned by Bryce, Nesta is confined to the House of Wind. Deciding enough is enough, she makes plans to sever something that was supposed to be her sacred forever.

    Summary

    Eris has finally gotten what he wanted. His father is dead, and his mother is happy. Ruling is exhaustive, and for four years, he has dug into work to raise his Court back from the ashes. However, in order to find a solution for the politics of his Court and getting rid of a thorn on his foot, he decides it's time to take a vacation and allow himself to have some fun. What he doesn't expect is that, along his travels, he will have the most unlikely companion! What may come out of it?

    *

    Azriel has seen his life go to waste as the world is now at peace. There's no one to protect, no battles to fight, so what use does he have now? His friends have moved on with their lives, mated and happy. The Seven Courts are at peace now that Eris is High Lord of Autumn, and even Tamlin is coming back from depression. Everyone seems to be getting better but him. One night, though, he gets drunk at a tavern and ends up in bed with a stranger who has finally made him feel something. Could this stranger be the person to make him come back to life?

    Summary

    When Gwyneth Berdara gets a Solstice gift from a misterious “friend”, she has enough information to understand that it is better to leave the matter alone. For all she heard about the situation between Azriel and Elain, it is already too messed up without her interfering, and the Mother knows she needs to deal with her own issues.
    But there is something inside her, a small and insistent voice, that doesn’t let her forget about it.
    She tells herself that it is only her curiosity. And she almost believes in that too.

     

    Azriel is still pissed off by Rhysand’s lecture about the scene with Elain at Solstice, but he knows there is no point in fighting if his brother is right. So, in order to take the Archeron sister out of his head, he decides to shut himself off from everything remotely related to love. If he doesn’t get to choose someone, he won’t have anyone at all.
    Unless, of course, the Cauldron chooses for him.

    Summary

    'She knew she was still worlds behind both her sisters. It wasn’t until she had thrust the blade into Hyberns' neck that her healing had truly been able to begin.'

    Elain starts to consider what -she- wants.
    Why shouldn't she have both?

    Summary

    The river heaved again, a great wave slapping against its banks, and Feyre swore she heard something beneath it. Not words, not a song, but a pulse. Ancient. Beckoning.

     

    Then the water stilled. Perfectly still, as if frozen in glass.

     

    From the center of the river, a figure rose to the surface.

     

    The figure had barely touched the surface of the river, when her eyes flew open and she crawled out of the water and stood on its surface, turning to stare at them.

    Summary

    The meeting of the High Lords was decided to take place in territory neutral enough that no one would attack anyone else without consequences, and what better way to make everyone behave than the constant threat of iron nails piercing throats?

    OR

    An AU where Azriel was banned from the Night Court at a very young age, and now meets the Inner Circle for the first time, in a kind of war meeting, after more than three centuries without speaking to each other.

    Summary

    [updated every week]
    As entire villages go missing throughout the night court without a trace, Rhysand puts his spymaster in charge of working out why. But it is clear Azriel won’t be able to do it himself. In an effort to keep these incidents quite they need someone they can trust. Eris Vanssera, desperate to prove his loyalty to their alliance gets roped into the unlikely pairing.

    The mating bond doesn’t care about history, politics or reputation. Instead it pulls the souled of its desired together, the mating bond can be wrong but how do you know if it is?
    Azriel could never bring himself to stop hating Eris Vanserra let alone love him, and Eris could never love Azriel in fear of his reputation coming undone. Or could they? Even after a long slow burn romance, secrets still need to twine around them both – but is it love or lust? Could it ever become love knowing everyone around you will disapprove?

    Azriel could be in love with a male – If it didn’t mean being in love with Eris.
    Eris could be in love with Azriel – If it didn’t mean being in love with a male.

    Summary

    Beneath the halls of Hybern—amidst the endless tunnels of tortured souls—a fallen star lays trapped in darkness; smothered and forgotten. Only the shadows know her now—not by name, but by heart—they her dutiful companions in this dreamless existence. They speak of freedom—belonging—but the wards of Hybern are absolute, trapping those daring enough to tempt the King's might; and she has long since stopped trying to unravel them.

    But immortals have the benefit of time, and while she bides hers—amassing power—the scale of fate shifts in her favour; the actions of another severing the shackles which bind her.

    Who emerges from that impenetrable darkness? Who are we, when all we were has been stripped away?
    Does it matter?
    Is the past worth remembering, if it offers naught but regret?

    A retelling of A Court of Wings and Ruin, through the eyes of an original character.

    Summary

    Manon Blackbeak is dead. At least, she'd intended to be, when she finally Yielded after four centuries of suffering in Erilea became too much to bear. But instead of killing her, Yielding seems to have only transported her to an entirely different world—wherein she is the only one of her kind, but very much alive. Grieving, alone, and thoroughly confused, she is offered a bed in an underground library and a second chance at finding the will to live.

    Azriel is nearing his breaking point. Having discovered his claim to a particularly wretched piece of inheritance, he needs all of the support he can get from his friends. Instead, he isolates from them, his increasingly short temper and erosive jealousy for his brothers' newfound domestic bliss hindering his ability to deliver the solutions he owes them. To make matters worse, the arrival of Illyrian women to the House of Wind threatens to re-open scars he'd long believed to be healed.

    Maybe a fresh perspective would do them both some good.

    Summary

    It was a well known fact: the veil between the worlds grew thinner and thinner, so the possibility of a crashing was already a certainty. The rumors started a long time ago, but no one did anything to stop it. Luckily, time has passed, we went through wars and race eradications, but Faerie Realms and Mortal Lands stayed almost the same, some richer and some poorer.

    Nobody was talking about the fallen, until now, when the fates started working their old, wicked magic and gave us an early Summer Soltice gift: an unprepared girl who was sent tumbling from the sky.

    Tumultuous and dangerous,
    Bitter and heartbreaking.
    This is the story of the Evening star.
    About the young woman who holds the Sun as her weapon,
    And the Moon as an ornament.
    About the Cursed Crown, who chooses its own master
    And about the man in the shadows, irreversibly bound to her, by the tongue of death.
    And, after all, about us, the nothingness who catches a goal.

    I am the Bloody Blade, former leader of the first legion, last of my kind, banished and tormented by dark memories and here is the beginning of our story.

    Summary

    Eran tan antiguos que ningún registro hablaba de su existencia.
    Por eso, cuando uno surcó el cielo y redujo a cenizas un campamento ilyrio, todos comprendieron demasiado tarde lo que significaba su existencia.
    Desde entonces, los ilyrios juraron exterminarlos.
    Quizá no fue casualidad que despertaran justo cuando las valquirias alcanzaron la cima de Ramiel.
    Pero nadie esperaba que las valquirias estuvieran dispuestas a sacrificar hasta su corazón para protegerlos.

    Summary

    Five hundred years ago, the Princess of the Night Court was slaughtered in the Illyrian wilderness. Her wings were torn from her back. Her head was put in a box and thrown down the river for her brother to find. Her story ended the way it was told- through blood and suffering and death.

    At least, that's what everyone thought.

    But there are secrets she took to the grave-
    And one of them is that she's still alive.

    Now, as war with Hybern looms and the cracks in the Night Court begin to splinter, her return sets off a chain reaction that no one is ready for.

    Allegiances shift. Truths are questioned.

    And the story everyone thought they knew begins to unravel-
    One bloody, burning lie at a time.

    Summary

    A year after banishing the Asteri, Bryce Quinlan has never felt more lost... until a familiar face shows up on Midgard, forcing her to confront everything she's spent the last year trying to forget.

     

    (spoilers for all Maasverse, spicy, a lil queer at times, read at your own risk <3)

    PS I removed the rape/non con tag that I had added for one attempted SA in the first chapter. It could potentially be triggering, but it's very brief and ends before it escalates -- there will be no graphic depictions of SA in this work! Definitely plenty of graphic/potentially kinky moments though, so please read at your own comfort levels! <3

    **Please note, this is a work in progress, and she's probably going to end up way too long. Thanks for being here with me!**
