Summary
For months Cassian had been waiting for the chance to take Nesta Archeron on a date. No, strike that, Cassian wouldn’t lie to himself. He’d been waiting for years, Mother damn it.
From the moment Cassian had first laid eyes on Nesta he’d known that there would be no-one else. Cassian couldn’t explain it, but he’d just known with a rattling clarity that startled him awake. There would be no more raucous lifestyle where he bedded anything that moved. There would be no half-assed dates that were clearly going nowhere or late-night hook-ups.
There was only one goal: to get Nesta to agree to go on a date with him and pray to the Forces that Be that she’d fall in love with him, too.

Summary
“You brought me breakfast. Of course. Some kind of peace offering from the great High Lord and his inner circle?” Cassian finally rallied his composure before this conversation could get any further off track.
“Yes. Breakfast.” He held out the bag to her. “Seemed like an appropriate gift, from a new neighbor.”
Someone who didn’t know her might have been forgiven for thinking they were already witnessing the pinnacle of Nesta Archeron’s rage. But as her scowl twisted into something deeper, Cassian knew he’d only scratched the surface. “Neighbor?!”
--
Cassian is outraged by the Inner Circle's plan to force Nesta to move into the House of Wind against her will. To make sure she has support available without taking away her choices, he proposes an alternative : he's moving in next door to her, and is determined to earn her trust by not repeating their earlier mistakes.- Language:

Summary
“Cass?” Nesta asked, her voice husky with exhaustion.
Cassian’s heart fluttered to hear that nickname on her lips.
“I’m here, Nes,” he replied.
She reached out a thin hand, and he took it, cradling it as if it were the most precious thing in the world.
“Will you -” she hesitated, her blue-grey eyes huge in her pale face.
“Anything,” he promised, bringing her hand up to his mouth and kissing it tenderly. “Whatever you need.”
“Will you stay?” she asked. “Just for tonight.”
“I’ll stay as long as you want,” Cassian replied
---
Instead of shouting at each other and throwing presents into the Sidra on Solstice, Nesta and Cassian spend the night together. But their night of passion has far reaching consequences, ones none of the Inner Circle could anticipate.- Language:

Summary
As a young woman in regency Prythian, Nesta is well aware that she cannot remain unmarried. It’s just their way of life. This thinking still doesn’t make the fact she is recently widowed, and about to marry a man she’s never met any easier. She just hoped that he was kinder than her now-dead husband, and wouldn’t mind the scars she came with, or add to them.
Cassian was always a romantic at heart and hoped to marry for love, which he knew was silly. Dukes do not get to marry for love. He had at least hoped to know his wife before he married her, but when Feyre had come and begged him to save her long lost sister who she had not seen in six years, he couldn’t turn her away.

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.- Language:

When Cassian gets traded to the Seattle Kraken, it feels like his whole life changes. The last thing he expects is Nesta Archeron, his sister-in-law’s sister and the only person he knows when he moves across the country.

An Indecent Proposal by dustjackets

Summary
When Nesta learns that her father has lost her sisters inheritance, she has few choices left. There was no knight in shining armor to save them, or any relatives willing to take them in. The only thing a woman has left is her body, and if she is doomed to be a fallen woman, she can at least choose who's mistress she'll be.
Cassian McKay has made it perfectly clear he will never take a wife. It makes him completely unsuitable as a husband, in addition to being rude, scottish, and incapable of carrying on a polite conversation.
Good thing Nesta isn't looking for one. If he's willing to save her sisters, she'll agree to anything... including being his.

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
‘Let me just tell you, this is absolutely fucked up.’
Shinya nodded, almost patronizingly, penning his last reply. ‘Oh, of course it is. But you’ll do it anyway, won’t you?’
Guren felt the blond’s gaze penetrate through his skull. He *would* do it. That was the beauty of Shinya’s manipulation.
(Aka Guren’s life would probably be much easier if Shinya wasn’t the owner of the mind of a kinky 15-year-old. Although he had only himself to blame for always falling for his silly tricks.)

Cue Mika using every excuse in the world to get Yuu's hands on him.
Yuu just wants to know why the pretty blonde next door keeps touching him and exactly what breed of crazy he'd caught from the guy that he's actually allowing it.
