    Summary

    Gwyn and her moody teenage daughter move to Velaris to find someone to teach her how to fly.
    Spoiler Alert: Azriel obviously takes the job!
    ___________________

    “Are you ready to see your new room?”

    Juno answered with a dramatic eye roll and folded her arms in a huff. She turned to walk into their new apartment, nearly hitting Gwyn with her leathery wings as she did.

    Why hadn’t anyone told Gwyn how awful she’d feel as a mother when her daughter became a teenager? Everything she did was wrong, uncool, or embarrassing. Although maybe Juno had the right to be upset with her this time.

    Summary

    Azriel straightens. “Nesta, this is my brother, Cassian. Fresh off the Greyhound.”

    Her lips curve, amused. “He looks like it.”

    Cassian huffs a laugh. “And you look like trouble.”

    “Only to the deserving.” She pats the space on the rug beside her guitar like she’s calling a dog.

    He drops to sit, cross-legged, trying not to knock into anything breakable, which in this room includes at least eight people.

    Nesta eyes his jeans, his boots, his too-short haircut. “So what’d you run away from? Factory? Farm? Fiancée?”

    “Indiana,” he says. “Wanted to see what all the fuss was about.”

    _______

    1969. Cassian follows his brother into the anti-war movement, and falls straight into Nesta—a sharp-tongued folk singer who wears her defiance like armor, who teases him, dares him until he jumps, touches him until he’s lost. Between songs and sit-ins, joints and daisy chains, marches and midnight laughter, they fall into the wild rhythm of the sixties. But love in a world on fire is never simple.

    Nesta isn’t depressed, she doesn’t need saving, she just doesn’t like hanging out with Feyre’s new friends.

    Summary

    The declaration slams into her. Shackled. The fissure of her heart is so stark and sudden, she’s surprised nobody hears the resounding crack echoing through her. She staggers back a step, putting distance between them. It makes that bond, that thread attached to her rib, linking them together, ache painfully.

    _____

    Unbeknownst to him, Cassian is at risk of loosing not only the love of his life, but a chance at having the one thing he has craved ever since being dumped at the Illyrian war camp as a youngling as well.

    Summary

    One-shot (maybe?) of Emerie addressing some things about the Inner Circle, and taking her own path. Deviation from canon - I took some liberties with the characterization, plot, and everything, and was heavily inspired by fictional events from other books, and even some salient sociocultural and historical themes are going to be embedded in this to address the many prejudices that SJM had in creating this series. There's so much potential in this world but there are just as potholes if left in the original canon. Lots of thoughts, but this world and these characters shouldn't have to be injusticed by not being fleshed out well just because the author is a PoS, zionist bigot. I also haven't read HOBAS or wtvr the new Maas book is fully, so this isn't going to include the multiverse part of it - or maybe it will. I'm not sure where this is going.

    Summary

    The one thing they could both agree on was this - She did not belong here.

    Nesta Archeron had been made for glass skyscrapers and slick offices. She was a soldier in the war against misused semi colons and bad forum selection clauses.

    She did not belong on an active drill rig in South America.

    She did not belong in Cassian's desert, and she certainly didn't belong inside his head. Yet there she was, and until this job was done - and done properly - neither one of them would be getting a moment of peace.

    Summary

    For millennia, omegas have been hunted. History records that sometimes it was for sport. Others for glory or their own nefarious deeds.

    When Gwyn's village is attacked, she is taken deep underground, traveling miles in tunnels only to be preserved and saved, for when the universe needed her most.

    Now, she is one of the last omegas.

    Three hundred years after she's entombed, tomb raiders dig up her stasis chamber. The ship they smuggle her on is shot down over an overgrown, jungle like planet where Gwyn finds not one, not two - but five scent matches. It is on this planet that she makes a stand for magic. For life. And for herself.

    Will she be able to defend the love and care of a pack, or will she be left to live as the last omega, forever alone?
