    Summary

    Several months after the showdown on the skiff, Alina and Mal travel close to the Fold again. They stay for the night at a farm. Both are shocked when they meet one of the farmhands: A man with horrible scars on his face and no memory of his past.

    Takes place after season 1. Based solely on the show, I have not read the books.

    Summary

    Examining the story from the angle that the Darkling can be redeemed; takes elements from the show and the books. Inspired by Alina saying in the show that they could have had all of it if he hadn't put the collar on her, so in this he doesn't. Eventual smut, not a slowburn but won't happen right away.

    Summary

    It takes Alina longer than it probably should to even become aware of the fact that something about her husbands' behavior has changed.

    And why.

    Once she does though, a part of her can not stop laughing.

    Or: Communication is key. And sometimes results in babies.

    Summary

    Alina Starkov felt like she had lost everything that day on the fold: her first love, killed by her own need for power. When she awakens in a room in the Grand Palace, she realizes her new life might be a bit more to deal with than she had expected. And then, there he was: not dead. The Darkling.
    All Alina knew was that she didn't want to be alone, and she had never asked to be queen.
     
    Post Ruin and Rising AU where Mal dies on the fold, Alina retains her powers, and the Darkling survives.

    Summary

    “Moi soverenyi,” Alina’s voice was soft but firm in the half-light and he briefly closed his eyes, feeling his pulse pick up and his body tingle at just the sound of her voice.
    He turned to see her hovering in the doorway, her soft hair curling around her face in gentle ringlets, falling down her back of a cascade of dark water, her eyes glimmering in the low light like the finest onyx gems. Skin he could only imagine the softness of teased him from the low cut of her gown, the way her collar bone and the soft swell of the tops of her breasts were exposed.
    “Miss Starkov,” he murmured back, overly formal and distant, even as he wanted to go to her, hold her, and whisper all the sweet names for her he had longed for so many many years to say.
