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
“Stop it! Just stop it. None of you know what you’re talking about.”
“Your defense of your sister is admirable, but we’re only speaking truths.”
“But that’s just it. You don’t know the full truth. None of you do.”
“What are you talking about?” Feyre asked, and Nesta filled with horror. Elain wouldn't . She couldn't. She swore never to tell-
“Don’t you dare,” Nesta hissed, and she offered Elain one final glare, filled with an equal amount of pleading. She couldn’t fathom the thought of Feyre knowing her secret, she couldn’t bear the thought of them knowing. Not the full extent of what had happened, what had changed her well before the Cauldron-
“Father sold Nesta when she was 16.”
When Nesta's deepest secret is revealed at yet another tense dinner, she was sent into a spiral, desperate to escape before Feyre demanded answers. But it isn't her sister who comes to find her in the aftermath, it's someone else. Someone who might have more in common with her than she ever thought.
TW: Child abuse, suicidal thoughts/ideation, forced prostitution, sexual assault (underage!!)
