Summary
Elain is all alone at the Town House and Lucien makes a surprise appearance. They decide to "explore the mating bond," but for how long can they keep it a secret? And what happens when the Inner Circle starts meddling in their business?
Okay so this fic has been going on for much longer than I intended, but I love the drama! It was MEANT to be very little plot, mostly fluff, smut, angst, drama, shenanigans, and banter. But now its getting a little heavier with plot and angst because the characters are in charge not me.

Summary
It has been half a year since the King of Adarlan and the Queen of Witches parted ways in Terrasen. They both struggle to rule and rebuild entire kingdoms, while also trying to outrun the dark shadows of grief and trauma. Dorian and Manon find blessed release in the physical comforts of each others' bodies, but it remains to be seen whether they can be more than that. Will Manon find it in herself to walk through, rather than away, from her loss? Can she learn to let go of the iron-fisted grip on her heart when everything she once loved was ripped away from her? What would it look like if Dorian and Manon were both to truly believe that they deserved love and compassion?
A direct continuation of the Throne of Glass world post-Kingdom of Ash, this story explores how Dorian and Manon find their way to one another. As they both navigate the complexities and heavy burden of duty, they attempt to find healing--individually, together, and for their broken nations.

Summary
Elain Archeron is not the trembling fawn everyone believes her to be.
Two years after the war, she feels an awakening- a power which calls her to grow untamed things under moonlight. She then receives an invitation to master her abilities as a Seer under the guidance of an Oracle of the Day Court. All the while fighting an inevitable war of passion for a holy mess of a shadow-wreathed male who looks at her with all the longing in the world.
So perhaps a little more softly, a little more lethally, Elain begins her journey down the path unknown. For there’s something blooming within her. Something darker, softer, and wilder than she can name- reaching for the song of the Void.
“Damn the Cauldron.” Azriel strode towards her. “Damn the Stars.” He closed the distance.
“This-” those scarred hands softly gripped her face, bringing it within an inch of his own. “This-” he wrapped his scent around her and met her gaze directly, making sure she could feel the charge, the need, the nameless want-“This could never be a mistake.”

Summary
(Formerly titled Dangerous Dreams and Daffodils)
This work is a series of canon-compliant chapters that are meant to expand on Feyre’s time spying in the Spring Court in ACOWAR. There was just SO MUCH more that I wanted from that part of the book, like mating bond/mind-reading smut, Rhys, Lucien, and Tamlin’s POVs on different events, really getting into some of the feelings and challenges of the characters, especially jealousy and possessiveness, looking more at the day to day conversations, etc. The sections do flow chronologically.Rape/Non-Con Warning because of non-consensual touching on Tamlin's part that doesn't include penetration. Implied sexual assault associated with nightmares.
NOTE: One important change I made is that Feyre doesn’t get exposed to faebane until the day she leaves, so Rhys and Feyre are able to openly communicate and support each other throughout the experience.
