    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

    When Feyre called a meeting to confront Nesta about her self-destructive behavior, she never expected Nesta to call her bluff - and choose the human lands over the House of Wind. But what if she did?

    This story explores an alternate path where Nesta, determined to maintain her independence, walks away from the Night Court and faces the consequences of her choice. Along the way, she’ll navigate new alliances, uncover hidden strengths, and confront the darkness that’s followed her since the war. What happens when the power inside her refuses to be ignored - and when unlikely friendships spark something more?

    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.

    Summary

    Cassian thought it was supposed to be simple.

    1. Find the witch in the woods.
    2. Convince said witch to give him Ataraxia.
    3. Rescue the princess from the dragon guarding her tower, with said sword, from said witch.

    If only the damned witch stopped getting in his way.
