Summary
Lakeview Manor was never meant to be a nursery.
After Miraak is resurrected to live freely on Nirn, he and Lilliandra are given one last impossible surprise: a daughter neither of them planned for, expected, wanted, or quite know how to love safely.
There are no gods invited into Ophelia’s childhood. Only monsters, survivors, old wounds, and the fragile domesticity of dangerous people trying, in their own strange ways, to keep one small child whole.
(Or: there are no fixes or redemptions for villains just because they now have a family.)
A non-linear anthology narrative set 4E 203 and after. (I'm taking suggestions/ideas if you're enjoying the fic <3)

Summary
“What a shame that your fate is to die so that I may have my freedom.”
Laat Dovahkiin tilts up her chin. “I have slain the World-Eater, crossed into Sovngarde a living woman, and returned alive. Surely I am beyond fate by now.”
“But you are not beyond mine, mal dovahdin,” Miraak tells her.
* * *
Once a runaway noblewoman from High Rock, now the famed saviour of Skyrim, Elentari vows to do her duty when a new threat rises on the island of Solstheim. What she expects is an enemy like all the rest. Instead, she meets Miraak, a man whose very soul calls out to her own, and she begins to wonder just how closely their fates are intertwined—and if the First and the Last Dragonborn can defy the destiny set aside for them both.

Bookmarker's Notes
The most scrumptious Miraak/LDB fic I've ever read. Don't even like slow burns but this got me absolutely hooked. Keep eye on for future updates.

Summary
Finding herself waking the hour of her execution is not the way Lilyah expected her first full day in Skyrim to go. Being unintentionally saved by what she thought was a winged harbinger of death was also not something she would have guessed to happen either. This is the tale of a Bosmer slave escaping her masters to start over and finds that starting over comes with conditions... namely being the famed Dragonborn and a few other surprising things. If love happens to mess things up it is neither here nor there.
Tags will be added if needed. I do not own Skyrim, only Lilyah is my creation. Chapters will also be tagged with warnings if needed.

Summary
Miraak flushed. “You mock me,” he snapped, irritation clipping his words short.
The Dragonborn let out a quiet huff of laughter. “Perhaps,” she said. Lines of amusement crinkled the corners of her eyes. “But it is better than what you would have suffered beneath Mora’s thumb.” She paused briefly. “Well, his figurative thumb, seeing as he is an amorphous mass of eyes and tentacles."Miraak wasn't dead.
Of course, when he realized the rest of his life was going to be served out under the eccentric Dragonborn with a poor taste in humor, he very much wished he was.- Language:
