    Summary

    Lanterns. Caged flames, tamed into obedience. Cursed to burn only where they’re told and no more than they’re allowed to. A tool.

    Flins is a Lantern Fae, the only one of his kind. Known as the Azure Flame, he is feared by both fae and humans. Stripped of his name and memories by the Tsar, he exists as little more than a weapon: a hunting hound bound to its master, a flame condemned to burn only where commanded. For centuries, he has accepted this as his fate.

    That is, until in the midst of a routine and merciless task, he encounters a Captain of the Lightkeepers: a faction that dares to resist the unyielding dominion of the fae over humanity. Mistaking Flins for a human who has lost his name to a cruel fae, the Captain offers him a place among the Lightkeepers. Giving the Tsar an idea for Flins’s next mission:

    To infiltrate the Lightkeepers and destroy them from the inside.

    But could a creature feared even by his own kind truly pass as human? Especially with that insufferably persistent Captain refusing to leave his side, hovering, prying, and dragging him ever closer to a life he was never meant to have.

    Could something born in a cage ever learn how to be free?

    Summary

    The age of the fae is slowly coming to an end in Sneznhnaya and Lord Kyrill had accepted this long ago. He already has plans for a quiet departure from both the court and his life, as he attends one last ball to say goodbye to it all. However, his plans fall apart completely when the other fae drag him to a secret auction with a prize rivaling anything they'd ever seen during the Belyi-Tsar's reign.
    It's a living human being. The Lightkeeper from Nod-Krai had been dragged away from a battle and is now at the mercy of a pack of bloodthirsty fae. There's only one of them capable saving him, but will Lord Kyrill give up his wish of a quiet end just to guide one last soul home?

    TLDR: Lord Kyrill buys a feisty human on the fae market. He vows to take him back to Nod-Krai like a gentleman, definitely not intending to fall in love in the process. Will his mission fail? Hmm, if only there was a weekly-updating series that could answer that question!

    Summary

    Rather than throwing Scaramouche into jail after his defeat, Cyno has the idea to bind him to someone who won’t lead him astray again. The thing about the spell is that they can’t choose who Scaramouche is bound to.

    The result is… not favorable. But maybe it could be.

    (This work is a rewrite of one of my older fics “the sinner and the saint”. Said fic has been orphaned.)
