Summary
Her hands shook as she stood against a post supporting the mess tent. Alina was attempting to look casual, unaffected by her nerves, but she knew her body language gave it away - shaking hands, taut shoulders, a slight hunch.
Because it was tonight that she was going to tell him. She’d thought about it for forever, considered her words carefully, planned out a speech - the works. All that was left was the conversation. Alina desperately hoped it would go well.

Summary
“We shall be married.” His voice was strong but without malice. She should have seen that coming.
Alina laughed. She threw her head back and laughed at the absurdity.
“It’s a perfectly reasonable request.” He echoed her words from earlier. “Rulers solidify treaties and ensure peace through marriages all the time.”
She blinked. He was right. And he was beautiful when he was like this, impassioned, sure. She hated him for it.
OR
When Alina surrenders herself to save her people and everyone she loves, she finds herself at the mercy of the Darkling. To her mounting horror she realizes he isn't at all the monster he seems. Or perhaps he's exactly what he seems, but just not to her.

Summary
Time travel isn't all that new to Bella, having Alice for a sister tends to make time a more fluid construct. Yet this wasn't the plan, at least not her plan.
It's been a long time since Bella was human as much as she hates it maybe she should see what it's like, it would be nice to be turned in her 20s, for posterity's sake of course.
What do you do when you've lost everything and now you've got it all to lose again?
Addition: What would the first book be like if Bella were a time-traveling vampire stuck in a human body?

Summary
He squinted at the bright light of the narrow room. Next to him, screened by a curtain, someone moaned loudly.
"What happened?" he asked Helen, his voice rasping.
She picked up a plastic cup of water and arranged the straw near his lips. He drew on it too quickly and coughed. "Shit."
"You tried to drink yourself to death," Helen said coolly, her eyes like daggers. She pushed the water towards his mouth again, and he obliged, taking another sip. "You'll be here overnight for observation, and then you get to go home."
He pushed the straw out of his mouth with his tongue. "Okay."
She put the cup down. "I need a break. I have some functions coming up at the restaurant that I've already postponed. I'd hoped you would be doing better by now, but I'm clearly not helping. So, you're going to have to look after yourself for a while."
John fixed his eyes on the corner of the nurse's station in front of him.
"Fine," he replied.
