    Summary

    “Come here,” he said. So close to a plea. “Everything else aside, just…come here, Nes. I’m still here.”

    He wasn’t—he’d been more distant than ever. Coming to bed late, and leaving for the dining room before she even had the chance to wake up properly. It felt like their last conversation had been ages ago, before the girl fell onto Rhys’ lawn.

    She remembered the night before it all happened. Their last night together: her hands held above her head, and him smiling and whispering words against her neck while he made love to her.

    “You are the most precious thing in the world to me,” he’d said, under the bright moonlight.

    She missed his steady presence, and the physical comfort he gave so easily.

    She missed him.

    Summary

    Cassian could only watch as she turned her forearm, and he took in the lines moving vertically up and down. They were all on top of each other, as if she’d tried again and again to open the wound. On a human, such a blow would have been fatal in minutes. But for a fae… it took every ounce of his ability not to fall to his knees.

    “Nesta,” he said carefully, so soft and delicate, but she just kept speaking quietly, as if he wasn’t actually there and she was instead addressing whatever version of him existed in her mind.

    “I was hoping not to wake you. Actually, I was hoping you would do it,” she muttered, shaking her head. “I thought that was why we were here. But then you just kept walking and walking, and I couldn’t fucking take it anymore.”

    “Do what, Nes?”

    “Well, you’re supposed to kill me, aren’t you?”

    Summary

    Dain searches for answers regarding his birth, hidden from him in plain sight. He wants know what he is, how he can help, and why Sloane smells so fucking good—and probably tastes it too.

    Takes place after Onyx Storm and is not meant to be 100% accurate. A fun read about magic, with a slow burning romance, political turmoil, and war afoot!

    OR-

    I write a spinoff following Dain and Cath post OS.

    Enjoy theory, magic, and lust and love! Just something to read!

    * I update weekly!
    * Dedicated to world building
    * Long read!
    * Fliers are cool here!

    Summary

    [Post-Iron Flame.] There's a lot that Violet Sorrengail does not have the emotional energy to deal with right now. From her mother, to figuring out what to do about Aretia, to the absolute train wreck of the situation with Xaden, she just wants to get through the next little while without losing her mind. And last on her list of things she wants to deal with is the sudden appearance of her ex, Crown Prince Halden, because it's going to introduce a whole new clusterfuck of baggage to everything else on her plate.

    (How do we deal with our book hangover? We write our own Book 3, that’s how!!)
