    Summary

    He had long since left the dance floor, but Eris Vanserra still felt the burn of silver fire on his skin.
    Nesta Archeron.
    She had danced with him like she wanted to burn him alive, and Mother help him, he hadn’t wanted to be anywhere else.
    The music hadn’t stopped, but the moment had. Still, some part of him was caught in it—off balance, branded, wondering if he’d imagined the whole damn thing.
    He should leave. He’d made his move. He'd shown his hand. Maybe more than he should have, outright turning down the gift of a Made weapon in exchange for a chance at Nesta's hand in marriage.
    There was nothing more to be gained here.
    And yet.

    or

    A retelling of ACOSF, starting at the Winter Solstice Ball, where Eris decides that he can’t—won’t let Nesta slip out of his grasp this easily. Nesta, feeling trapped in a life she never chose, accepts his offer to train her power at the Autumn Court.
    This is a story about choice and healing on your own terms.

    EDIT 11/04: Not abandoned, just on hiatus for personal reasons. There's a lot going on in my life right now, but I'll get back to this once I actually have the time and headspace to write the conclusion the story deserves!

    Summary

    Love and war have always followed the same rules: Quick to ignite, slow to extinguish. There aren't many things Cassian has dared to openly want in his 500 years of existence. Not even the position he currently occupies as Lord of Windahaven (far too lofty a spot for nothing more than a well-blodded bastard, if you ask the other Illyrian Lords), but from the second Nesta Archeron stepped foot in his camp, the entire world ebbed into a single truth.
    She is his.
    He is hers.
    Everything else - the war he is meant to lead, the people relying on him, the legacy he should be fighting to protect, cease to exist the second his eyes are caught in roiling silver flames. There is pain in this female, his female. And retribution will be exacted. Rhysand has his war, and now so does Cassian. Whether the two align ... only Nesta can give that order.

    Summary

    **Daily releases starting 7/18 - 572 pages complete**
    The insinuation didn’t make her mad. It didn’t comfort her. But it did strike a chord. “My instincts are the only reason I’m alive. They’re why those children in Sangravah survived.”
    Azriel descended to the grounds of the river house. “Then perhaps you should listen to them.” He set her down gently and the moment she opened her mouth to retort, he cut her off. “I told you I would wait. I meant it.”
    His words rendered her dumbfounded. They were the words of a male devoted. A male who knew her far longer than Azriel had. But she didn’t reject them, because her tears over his broken body had been the tears of a female who had lost a part of their soul. A female bound to him.
    “Shall we?” said Azriel, gesturing up at the river house.
    And Gwyn nodded, for she knew no words.

    Summary

    **Inspired by OUTLANDER - Daily releases starting 4/09 -- 480+ pages complete**

    Following the events of ACOSF, the Valkyrie must answer for their victory in the Blood Rite and face trial before the Illyrian Tribunal in Windhaven. Corporal punishment is certain, but there is one way around it for Gwyneth Berdara: Marriage.

    “As Gwyneth Berdara’s husband, I invoke the right to accept whatever punishment is determined on her behalf.”
    Slowly, the three Magistrates’ heads swiveled to Gwyn. The priestess swallowed hard.
    “Miss Berdara,” Crispin said, “You can confirm that you are the wife of Spymaster Azriel?”
    She did not hesitate. “Yes.”
    Celio’s brows furrowed, while Crispin exhaled heavily.
    “Thank you, for confirming, Miss Berdara,” Fabius said, his voice slick with mock amiability. “Please note that we reserve the right to call your union into question if we find justification.” He shifted his attention to Azriel. “Sustained, Spymaster Azriel.”
