    Summary

    Nesta was prepared to die. For Feyre, she would give everything.

    When Nesta sacrifices herself to save Feyre, the only person able to save her is the one who has hated her the most: Rhys.

    Cassian was so tired of watching his mate drown in her self hatred, her despair, and he'd just wanted her to find peace. But now, he would do anything for her to wake up and come back to him, even if it meant living through that grief and sorrow all over again.

    This is an AU for ACOSF, where Nesta trades her life for Feyre's instead of giving up her power, only it doesn't go as the Cauldron expects. This will focus heavily on Rhys and Nesta learning about each other and resolving their differences, as well as addressing how Nesta's trauma was handled by the IC (Also Rhys will apologize for his secret keeping).

    CW: Sexual assault, suicidal thoughts/attempts/ideation, child abuse, trauma, grief, and death.

    Summary

    Nesta had lived with pain all her life. She thought she knew how to keep it controlled, secret, afraid to burden her family even more with her inadequacy.

    Then, she was thrown into the Cauldron.

    Now, try as she might, the stolen fire that rages inside her only makes things worse, until she can no longer maintain the stone-faced mask that had gotten her through the first two decades of her life.

    When her truth comes to light, how will her family perceive her weakness? And more importantly, how will it affect an already tenuous relationship with a certain Illyrian?

    An AU in which Nesta has secretly lived with chronic pain her whole life, only to have it exacerbated by the powers she took from the Cauldron.

    Summary

    Azriel wanted more than anything for his family to find peace. As long as they were happy, he would carry out every monstrous deed his High Lord asked of him, even if it was slowly killing him. Even if it meant he would never find the love he had long wished for, had long been denied. Despite what he felt for a certain red-haired priestess, he would never let his darkness dampen her light.

    Gwyneth Berdara was healing. She was a Valkyrie, a Carynthian, and she was done hiding from the world. As long as she had her sisters, she was capable of anything, and that included living and working beside her mate, whose side of the bond hadn't snapped, and perhaps never would. A life with Azriel was not something she let herself think about. She was damaged, unworthy, and could never be the female that he deserved. She could never be Elain. Friendship was enough.

    But despite it all, neither of them could resist crossing that line between friends and something else, even if it didn't last.

    To the rest of the Inner Circle, it was clear that the two of them were meant to be. But knowing something and actually seeing it through were two different things entirely. Especially when the past weighed down on them all.

    Summary

    Now, in that study at the river estate, Cassian looked down at the female who would be staying with him for the near future. At the eyes that had drained of fire at the sound of her sisters words and were now nothing but hollow, unseeing.

    “You’re coming with me to the Illyrian Mountains,” he told her.

    Those steel blue eyes bore into his, unblinking. He waited for the retort, for the snide remark that would send him reeling but it didn’t come.

    Somehow, that was worse. It meant that the situation was far graver than any of them had realised.

    Summary

    Nesta Archeron isn't good with change. When her car breaks down in the middle of a storm and her sister sends one of her friends to pick her up, Nesta thinks there could be nothing worse than having to spend the night with a total stranger. Until she suddenly finds herself without an apartment. Despite only a night of knowing Nesta, Cassian is quick to offer her a room in his cabin free of charge, and Nesta, broke and without many social contacts, has no choice but to accept.
