Summary
“How did you find me?”
“I didn’t find you. I saw a stranded car. I thought someone needed assistance.” He jutted his thumb towards his own vehicle, a large lifted truck that looked suitable for a lumber yard, and said, “So I came to investigate.”
She blinked up at him, then pithily said, “Of all the snowblown roads in all the world.”Or, Zelda is stranded in a snowstorm and gets rescued. Smut happeneth.

Summary
“The handmaidens are beside themselves to see you in your uniform tomorrow.” Zelda blithely smiles, tongue in cheek even as she wonders as to the taste of his. Her appointed knight raises blond eyebrows, mug halfway to full lips before he pauses to roll her words over in his head.
“Are they now?”
“Oh yes,” He sips, throat bobbing with a thoughtful swallow. Green eyes follow the motion ravenously, but if Link feels her gaze on him he doesn’t let on. “It’s all Marion could talk about this morning.” His mouth pulls up into a smirk, and Zelda realizes too late the mischief brewing behind bright blue eyes. She’s inadvertently walked into a trap.
“And you?” Her knight drops his two syllables into the air between them like a remote bomb from the Sheikah slate.
“And I?” Zelda’s heart races as she strives to play coy, painfully aware of how low her bodice dips. Greedy lungs beg for his secondhand air, bidding her chest rise and earning a brief flare of Link’s nostrils. Hyrule’s hope leans forward, wolflike as he halves the space between them to murmur.
“Are you beside yourself to see me in my uniform?”

Summary
His stomach dropped to his feet at the sight of Zelda restrained once more, this time with a knife against her delicate neck.
He couldn't run. He couldn't leave her behind.
Link's knife clattered against the floor of the cave as he dropped it, followed quickly by the sound of his belt hitting cold stone.
"[I'm sorry,] aithed."

Summary
“The people are angry,” one advisor seethed. “They’re hurt, afraid, and they are demanding reparations. Some even go so far as to demand that the savages assimilate into civilized society, that we deliver an ultimatum.”
“What if we compromised, and made an attempt to obtain reparations and a peace treaty?” Zelda made a point to draw her eyes across each man seated at the table.
Her father’s hand stilled at his beard, face cast as if shadowed by an autumn storm. Finally, after what felt like years of silence, he stroked his beard thoughtfully.
“It will be so.”

While they may not have negotiated peace, the war chief reflected, he had a piece that would guarantee it squirming in his grasp.Series

Zelda stares at him. “What are you, a poet?”
“No,” Link leans against the table like a portrait of god splattered against an average household surface. “I’m Link.”
Hope runs a sharp course in a town like this.

Summary
“Let’s say you’ve been asleep for a hundred years and when you wake up you’ve lost all your memories, but you defeat the big bad monster like you’ve been told to, because a girl told you to, and because you were in love with her. And after defeating the big bad monster she comes back, only she’s not the person she was a hundred years ago. And you’re not the person you were a hundred years ago. And yet every time you look at her, your chest hurts so bad you think you might be dying.”
He looks up from his breadstick. “Am I dying?”
“No,” Beedle says. “I think you’re stupid.”
All roads lead to Hateno.

Stolen Kisses by ZeldaElmo

Summary
In a quiet moment, Zelda confesses her love to Link before it's too late. But what happens to whispered promises and breathless kisses when the world doesn't end?
The King, the council, the nobles - none of them seem ready for a courtship between a princess and a commoner, but giving up is no option for Zelda and Link.
Saving the world is only the beginning.This story takes place in the Hyrule Warriors - Age of Calamity universe. If you haven't played that game, but Breath of the Wild, it should be enough to read a summary/review to understand what's going on. Or watch the cutscenes (they are very cute!).

Summary
Ok, so maybe, Link is a workaholic. Who wouldn't with a job like his? Retrieving artifacts of the old Heroes for the National Museum is fun. He can solve old puzzles in abandoned dungeons or shrines and if he is lucky, he can even snowboard in his working hours!
When his HR-manager Urbosa forces him to take two weeks off, an unexpected discovery comes about to change his life forever. He has to go on a journey he has never meant to make and sometimes, it needs someone with a smile like the sun to realize what the important things in life are.A story about setting priorities, old and new family issues, and a tricky little thing called love.
Loosely botw-inspired. Zelink- Language:

Summary
Someone with a brand like his had no business getting so attached to a nice girl like her. Even if her eyes were the color of the Grasslands in spring, and her laughter was like summer wind, and her touch on his bare shoulder made him see fairylights. He remembered with remorse the first time he saw her on the wharf, tossing crumbs onto the rolling sea for the gulls, and how his head had snapped her way a second time, eyes too wide. Remorse, and a bit of a smile.

Summary
She smells like warm safflina. No, more specifically, like warm safflina tea sweetened with courser bee honey. And maybe you’re drowning in it. Maybe you’ve drowned in it before. It’s heady and confusing and you can feel her voice vibrate through you as she speaks, hear the smile in her words, “No matter, we’ll make more memories together.”
---
An exploration into what would happen if Link and Zelda had had some form of a relationship before the Calamity, but Link remembers none of it. Confusing and possibly difficult waters for them both to navigate.

Summary
Twilight holds the kid’s hands, sees the way his ring finger turns in just like Twilight’s, how his pinky is crooked, how the fine bones jump under his skin like piano strings, and presses those precious knuckles against his mouth. Not to kiss, just to cherish close like a breakable, vulnerable thing. Wild doesn’t know delicate. He doesn't know a gentle hold or a touch that is not a sword’s bite or a kick in the ribs. These dear hands are sacrosanct.
It is in scarred hands and eyes of Sheikah-tech blue that Link finds his purpose.
falling in love but make it familial and heartbreaking and still worth it to have loved and lost, rather than not loved at all

Summary
“You are going to hear a lot of terrible things about me. Most of it is going to be true.”
Being the hero who saved Hyrule from a bloody war was a thankless job that left Warriors with more regrets than he cared to remember. He only started to heal after meeting his fellow heroes from across time and joining them on their quest to defeat the black-blooded monsters.
But when his time-hopping journey takes him back home, he finds his kingdom on the brink of war once more. This war threatens to ensnare not only Warriors, but his newfound family as well.
Warriors will do whatever it takes to keep them safe, even if that means becoming a traitor to the kingdom he gave up everything to save. But the harder Warriors works to protect his family, the more the secrets of his dark past come to life. Who is Captain Link Walton, the Hero of Warriors? What happened to the two other heroes he had once fought alongside all those years ago?
When this is over, will Warriors even have a family left to save or is he doomed to repeat his past mistakes?
(Once, there were three brothers: the captain, the engineer, and the child. Their story did not have a happy ending.)
