Summary
"I've turned it over in my mind again and again," Nesta said, and looking at her now he saw the glassiness of her eyes. The faraway look that indicated some sort of shock. "It must have been about equality, right? I'm your mate, I'm expected to be equal to you."
Cassian's mouth fell open, and he looked helplessly at Azriel who, despite all his efforts at constant stoicism, appeared nothing short of stricken.
"I know it must be a disappointment that I did not make Carynthian."
"Nesta," His brother began, his voice strained. "Do you think we put you in that Rite?"
His mate finally lifted her gaze, settling her unfocused eyes on the shadowsinger without any real heat in them.
"Didn't you?"
---
In which, in the aftermath of the Blood Rite, Nesta's mind suffers more than Cassian realizes, resulting in a horrific misunderstanding. -

Summary
“Still think you belong here, little witch? Not even those leathers make you look convincing. I could still snap you like a toothpick.”
The male – not quite as tall as Cassian, but perhaps just as bulky, had been eyeing her from the moment she’d first arrived in this gods’ forsaken place for training. She knew he’d just been biding his time before taking a shot.
Typical male behavior, if she ever saw it.
“I belong where I please,” Nesta replied, making an effort to step around him.
Instead, he stepped towards her, and a large, rough hand landed on her shoulder, heavy through the fabric of her jacket, pushing her back.
“I’m not finished.” He snarled, leaning in close enough that she could smell the ale on his breath. “Someone ought to remind you of your manners when a male is speaking to you.”
“Do not,” she warned, angling out from his hold, “put your hands on me.”
--
In which Nesta beats up a man and Cassian learns that constant resilience has a price.

Summary
“Who is she anyway?” The boy asked as they walked away. “Why do we care about some witch on a mountain?”
“She’s not just any witch,” the girl replied, as if it were obvious. “She’s Lady Death.”
Nesta blinked, straightened, and took a moment to process the words.
Lady Death.
At once, the magic in her chest jolted – as if called.
The witch in the mountain.
The witch in the mountain was… her?
---
In the days leading up to Samhain, Nesta learns that she has made a lasting impression on the people of Velaris. Only, the weight of myth and legend isn't as easy to accept as it might seem.

The Whole Truth by TheTeaQueen

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!!)

Summary
“Zer liburu mota da?”
Tilting her head, Nesta furrowed her brows, confused.
Cassian pursed his lips, thinking how best to translate.
“Liburu. Libro. Is, um… “ Raising his hand, he made a mock stabbing motion. “Crime? Or erromantzea…romance?"
“Oh!” Nesta said, understanding. “Oh, yes. Romance. I write romance. Romance books.”

Or, I take the best storyline from Love Actually and make it Nessian.

The Artist And Her Model by ChelseaMorningGirl
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
14 Feb 2026
Tags
Summary
Nuan drapes a length of sheer fabric the color of shallow, aquamarine water across the model’s hips and thighs. It conceals nothing, but only adds another layer of complexity for the students, another challenge. The model—Nuan says her name is Nesta—arranges herself on the chaise longue with easy grace.
One arm curves above her head, the other rests across her stomach. The pose echoes a thousand classic odalisques, but contrary to the women portrayed in those paintings, there’s nothing passive in her expression. She looks like she’s daring the room to do more than study her.
“We’ll start with gesture drawings,” Nuan announces. “Thirty seconds each. Capture the energy, the movement, and don’t worry too much about details.”
Emerie’s hand moves across the paper, but her lines are tentative, uncertain. Usually, she can detach and look at the model as an arrangement of cylinders and spheres, light and shadow, negative space. But this woman radiates something that bypasses every intellectual defense Emerie has constructed.
Her charcoal stutters.
—————
When the usual model for her live drawing class calls in sick, a new model turns Emerie’s world upside down.
