    Summary

    "Shadows may hide...but the light reveals all."

    After the events of A Court of Silver Flames, Gwyneth Berdara begins a quiet journey of healing, strength, and self-discovery beneath the stars of Velaris. As her power awakens into something stronger than anyone could have imagined, and the Night Court’s shadows draw closer, an unfamiliar bond forms between her and the male who commands the dark. Slow, tender, and unspoken, their connection may prove to be the balance they never knew they needed.

    A story of when light meets shadows, and connection forces healing. Gwyn finds her voice, and Azriel finds himself listening. Healing is never quiet, but love can be. Will the Shadowsinger finally open his eyes? Or will he continue chasing what he can't have?

    Be prepared for real yearning, angst, smut, and of course, a slow-burning romance. P.S. I do support all three Archerons, so there will be no serious Elain or Nesta slander. Girls support girls here.

    Summary

    Azriel's life was a single dark thread in a tapestry of light. It seemed like everyone around him was finding their cauldron blessed mates; except for him. His family were now all too busy for him. Feyre and Rhysand had Nyx. Nesta and Cassian couldn't keep their hands off of one another. And Elain was off the table, as Rhysand had so kindly made clear. To make matters worse, Koschei's lake was stirring and new alliances were being formed in the dark, and it was now a rush to the finish line to stop Koschei from escaping. Alone. That's all Azriel was. All he was destined to be. His family didn't need him. Not anymore. Not truly. Not outside of work. How much longer would this continue until Azriel was forgotten entirely?

    Eris couldn't stand the sight of Autumn in such a state. It hurt him to see such a beautiful land run dry by such arrogant, greedy bastards; he had to kill his father, soon. Something was stirring. Something bigger than Beron. Something to do with a deathless god and a cursed lake. The alliance with Night was doing little to help him, and he was starting to struggle with holding up so many lies and façades. How much more could he take before he broke beneath the weight of his own schemes?

    Summary

    The Night Court has been recovering from the death of the High Lord's mate and daughter for 500 years, but some wounds don't close. Azriel filled his days with missions and training and longing for females that will never love him, all to fill the void in his chest.
    He'd loved her. Elvara. Rhysand's sister. Had even had a secret relationship behind everyone's back before she was killed. That was before though. Before he ruined everything.
    But all is not as it seems, when her scent draws him somewhere he'd sworn he'd never go again, somewhere that calls to his blood like an ancient siren song.
    Hel.
    And Elvara is there waiting for him.

    or the one where Azriel has to face his deep hidden heritage as a Prince of Hel to rescue his mate from a supposed fate worse than death, but what he finds when he gets there reveals that she never really needed saving at all.

    Summary

    When Sarah J. Maas vanished, everyone assumed she was working on her next novel. Her husband knew better.
    Desperate, he calls Lyra—ex-military, pragmatic, trained to survive anything—and tells her the truth… Sarah didn’t just imagine Prythian. She went there.
    The portal that fuels her stories opens only for those it chooses, and when Lyra crosses through, she finds herself in a world of Fae courts, shadows, and impossible magic—a world that doesn’t follow the rules of fiction.
    Armed with nothing but her instincts and a soldier’s will, Lyra must navigate the same deadly beauty that made Maas’s books legendary. But the longer she stays, the more Prythian begins to change her—body, mind, and soul.
    To save Sarah, Lyra will have to survive the story itself.
    Because this time, the author isn’t writing the ending—Lyra is.

    ⚠️ Content Warning:
    This story explores trauma, survival, and healing—both physical and emotional.
    Lyra’s journey includes scenes of violence, captivity, and intimacy (consensual and non), but at its core, it’s about reclaiming power, body, and self.
    Please read mindfully and take breaks if needed. ❤️

    Summary

    Under the Mountain, in the cell beside Feyre’s, there was another. A girl, cursed by Amarantha to be forgotten by all who looked upon her. Yet on Tuesdays, one Fae remembered: Rhysand, her teacher, and one constant.

    Even when the curse finally breaks, nothing about her has changed… and yet everything has. People remember her, see her, and Rhysand remembers her name. But the silence that once protected her is gone, and her secrets are suddenly far harder to keep.

    Secrets? They never stay buried. When Rhysand discovers the truth of her heritage, fury and betrayal drive her from Velaris, from her new friends.

    But Azriel cannot ignore her trail, even if his brother says he wants him to. And what begins as duty unravels into something far more dangerous: a bond neither of them asked for, one she may not return.

    As the fires of Hybern’s war consume the land, Lexia must face the truth she has long avoided: not every battle is physical. Haunted by the ghosts of her past, she must decide if she is ready for, or even if she wants, to be loved at all. And somewhere between what was and what could be lingers the quiet thought she can’t silence: It hurt less when you were all still strangers.

    Summary

    Sometimes the past creeps up at the worst times, even at training, and even after something good. Trauma doesn't wait until the perfect time to show up; it likes to surprise and occasionally ruin good days.

    Here is my emotional, but short, interpretation of what Gwyn's healing journey may look like post-ACOSF.

    And of course, there's Gwynriel because I may have an obsession with them. Sorry, not sorry.

    Anyway, this is all very emotional and serious, so please read the warnings and my message at the beginning. I used my own experience and my psych education here, so I do hope it represents well. Also, this is my first post, so go easy on me.

    Summary

    Born in the shadow of Amarantha’s reign, Nephele has been sheltered in Cesere's temple since infancy—her days a cycle of ritual, restraint, and restless longing for answers she knows she'll likely never have. Until Hybern.

    Months after Amarantha’s fall, soldiers descend on Cesere. Left bleeding and broken, Nephele is rescued by her court's High Lord and offered sanctuary in the House of Wind, a sanctuary carved into the mountains beneath a starlit sky. Yet grief leaves her hollow, and nightmares of blood-stained snow and a tether to the unknown haunt her in the library at the heart of the House. Something stirs in her blood—a power she never knew . . . another truth she was never told. A bloodline buried beneath a life built on lies.

    Rhysand’s spymaster, Azriel, and his general, Cassian, find themselves drawn to Nephele for reasons neither can name. Nephele is desperate to uncover what was taken from her as war builds on the horizon. Every truth unraveled makes the world tremble beneath her feet. She never could've predicted what life beyond temple walls had waiting for her . . .

    And she certainly never expected that it would be two Illyrian warriors who would finally awaken the 𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓 within her heart.

    Summary

    Many fires raged to burn out the longest night, their ruthlessness a symbol of Autumn’s everlasting strength, but it still wasn't enough to chase out all the shadows for the Singer to hide in. He discreetly watched as long-haired females twirled batons with flaming tips, sending them spinning in the air for far longer than physically possible without the use of their elemental magic. Other dancers didn't rely on any tool to keep their sparks alive—they sent arcs of flame to whip around them directly from their hands, the licks of fire dancing in time with their own movements. 

    Azriel was glad to be safe and cool in the shadows, as beautiful and graceful as the performers were. 

    And, despite their alluring spectacle, he was not in Autumn on the Winter Solstice to see them.

    Summary

    For Nesta Archeron, the war is far from over. Haunted by her past and crushed by expectations, she takes the only escape she sees possible: disappearing. She finds an anonymous refuge, a forgotten town hidden deep in the mountains where no one knows her name.

    But the Night Court sees all, and no one can hide from its lethal Spymaster.

    When Azriel finds her, it is his duty to bring her back. Yet, in her broken eyes, he recognizes a familiar darkness and makes a decision that will change everything: to protect her secret.

    Isolated from the world in the quiet of the mountains, their true selves begin to emerge. He finds in Nesta someone who isn't afraid of his shadows, and she finds in Azriel someone who understands the language of pain. Without anyone else knowing, they build an unexpected sanctuary: in one another. A love that blossoms in silence and is strengthened with every shared truth.
