Read on AO3 HERE

Part One

One moment you’re going about your usual day, the next you’re in Ravka - the fictional country in a fictional universe. When you realise that the story you know by heart hasn’t even begun, there’s only one person you can think of going to.

Part Two

After a restless night of sleep, you wake with too many thoughts in your mind. The contents of the General’s war table provide an ample distraction, and soon the man himself joins you.

Part Three

You and Aleksander journey to Kribirsk, where everything starts to become real for you, as your plan is finally set in motion.

Part Four

Accompanied by your new recruits, you and Aleksander return to the Little Palace, and soon settle into a comfortable routine. But nothing ever stays the same for long.

Part Five

Alina is presented to the king as the sun summoner, and from that point onwards you and Aleksander become increasing busy - and apart.

Part Six

An unexpected visitor arrives with some good news, and Aleksander makes a earth-shattering discovery.

Bonus Scene

As your first interaction with Baghra occurs, a wounded Aleksander returns from a mission, and you have no chance to ponder over her opinion of you.

Part Seven

The search for the stag takes your group north into Fjerda, but it’s after you return to Os Alta that a surprising event occurs.

Part Eight

The Winter Fete goes smoothly, a perfect evening followed by a foiled assassination. A few days later, you and Aleksander journey into the Fold.

Part Nine

After a dramatic arrival into West Ravka, your group travels to Os Kervo, and you recruit a pirate privateer to join you in the search for the sea whip.

Part Ten

The hunt for the sea whip has begun, but a number of obstacles stand in your way, demanding more from you than you ever thought possible.

Part Eleven

Your near death experience has taken a toll on you, which forces Aleksander to come to a realisation.

Part Twelve

A successful return to Ravka prompts you to share warnings of the future with Aleksander, and a new (but not unfamiliar) character invites himself into your schemes.

Part Thirteen

Slowly the pieces of your plan for the Fold come into place, but thoughts and fears of the future continue to haunt you.

Part Fourteen

Ravka’s seat of power changes, and Aleksander makes a discovery that sends you both north in search of his sister.

Part Fifteen

As Alina is about to bring down the Fold, Aleksander suggests a theory that lifts your hopes.

Part Sixteen

Together, you and Aleksander journey to the monastery of Sankt Feliks. To mend the tear at the making, a sacrifice from one of you is required.

Part Seventeen

With the remains of the Fold vanquished, the people celebrate. Together, you and Aleksander work to establish peace in Ravka and a safe haven for your Grisha.

Bonus Scene

The Darkling's Beloved Pt 2

Pairing: Aleksandar Morovoza x Elementalist!Male reader

Word count:2600+

Summary: With the Sun Summoner he can finally free you from your cold stone prison...right?

Warning: Smut, a little bit of sadness, cute nicknames, fluff, praising, unsafe sex (use a condom ya nasties (͡°ʖ̯͡°)), a little bit of nipple play, a lot of kissing, little bit of a general kink.

Since everyone liked the other one(which I appreciate bc I really liked the concept) I've decided to make pt 2, I hope this clears the cliffhanger from the last one.

Part 1

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

Alina was getting ready for her showcase at the banquet, Kirigan said that it was a big deal that she preformed correctly to impress the guest. Kirigan told Alina in advance that he was adding on to the showcase that would take place in front of the statue of an unknown man.

Alina needed to find Kirigan in the halls so maybe they could potentially sneak away, she had feelings for Kirigan and she just couldn't tell if Kirigan felt the same way.

Alina and Genya made their way through the crowded halls. While Genya was guiding Alina to their destination, Alina saw Kirigan in a room with a bunch of other people, she had to go talk to him.

Genya lost her grip on Alina as Alina strayed away into the room Kirigan was in. Kirigan saw Alina coming into the room, he didn't want her there yet specifically because it was too early for the performance but since she was there might as well start it, the sooner the better.

Kirigan grabbed Alina and dragged her on to the stage with him. "Are you ready?" Kirigan whispered into Alina's ear. "As ready as I'll ever be." Alina said smirking at the end of her sentence.

Kirigan turned to the crowd with a show stopping smile. "Welcome to showcase of the future of destroying the fold, the Sun Summoner." Kirigan used his powers to make the room as dark as night but after a while a blinding light appeared where Alina and Kirigan were standing.

The audience was in awe, watching the light show that was beholding in front of their eyes. Kirigan retracted his darkness as well as Alina made the light fade away.

"We have another showcase if you would follow us out into the courtyard." The crowd started to move towards the courtyard slowly, people were nervous but excited none the less.

Once everyone was in the courtyard, a statue that wasn't originally there was seated in the middle of the area. Light emitted from the statue almost like Alina's light but brighter in a way.

"Now you may be wondering why this statue is important...well me and Alina will show you." He grabbed Alina's hands a placed it on the statue's chest.

"Just focus your light into the statue and I'll do the rest." Alina nods and concentrates her powers into the stone statue while Kirigan does the same with his darkness.

The statue seems to be emitting more light, blinding the guest even more than the previous performance. Baghra looks a the action from a safe distance, she knows not to interfere knowing what's going to happen. Kirigan needs this ritual to work, he needs Y/n back. The light becomes brighter and brighter until it stops the light soon fades away and the original darkness of the courtyard returns.

The used to be statue in the middle of the courtyard is now a man dressed in very thin clothing. The audience notices and gasp at the sight, confused on how the statue turned from stone to man.

Alina was even more confused, she never knew her powers could do that or was that just Kirigan amplifying her capabilities as the sun summoner.

You started to fall but Kirigan catches you, saving you from the hard concrete floor.

"Where am I?" You said in a hushed tone, you look towards the figure holding you. It looked like Aleksander just with shorter hair.

"Aleksander?" You said that before losing conscious, you fell asleep in his arms.

"We must get him to a healer immediately for check up, he is top priority." The crowd moved out of the way so Aleksander could bring you back into the palace to healers.

Alina was confused and so were the audience members but it was a fine show and that satisfied them enough, they all returned back into the palace for the food and drinks.

.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・

Aleksander hasn't left your side since freeing from your stone cage. He simply couldn't risk losing you again, while watching over you, he had to think of a way to keep you safe since you did aid him during the creation of the fold.

It was just you and him left in the room, everyone had left to enjoy the rest of the party.

"You know I didn't stop trying to find a way to bring you back... I knew I could, it was like a feeling in my blood that you weren't truly gone." He moved his hand to your cheek caressing it before he continued "I know if you were truly dead I would have already killed everyone and everything from taking you away from me." He paused "Because you're the only thing in this world that truly matters." A tears strays down his eyes as he finishes his sentence.

A soft hand wipes the tears away and Aleksander turns to you." I'm not dead...anymore so don't cry okay." You whisper to him before attempting to sit up.

"Hey hey be careful you're still very fragile after being a statue for a couple of centuries." He helps you sit up right in a comfortable position.

"I'm not fragile, if anything I think being a statue has made me stronger." You smile at him, you felt stronger than before, like you could take a bullet to the heart and survive while being stabbed by a millions daggers.

"I think the elements want to be sure that this never happens again." You said before turning to look out the window. "Where are we exactly Aleksander?" You turn back to him tilting your head.

"We're in my palace since I am a general and I command the grisha to fight in the war." He gives you this cocky look and you simply thinks it's ridiculous.

"Well that's good to hear, and I see you took my advice and cut your hair." You move your hand to feel his now short hair, moving each strand making it messy.

"I needed to disguise myself and to come up with a new identity so that's when the hair got cut." He grabs your hand from his hair and holds it, slowly drawing circles in your palm.

"I'm guessing I'm going to need to change my name too? Since I did help you." You knew the old king didn't like you so the new king probably didn't like you either.

"Your last name could be mine we'd be unofficial married, I could say that my father turned you into to stone because of our relationship and that only a sun summoner and a darkling could break the spell." He talks slow trying his hardest to make this plan perfect, he couldn't lose you again.

"Maybe there is a brain up there." You smirk at him and lightly push on his shoulder.

"I did trick the king's son didn't I." He smiles. Someone knocks on the door and enters, it's Ivan.

"General, the king would like to speak to you about our new guest." He motions to you, Aleksander sighs.

"I'll be back darling unless you're in a good condition." He stands up still holding your hand looking down at you completely ignoring Ivan who is still in the room.

"Honey, I'm completely fine look." You get up from the bed that you layed in "see i'm not falling i'm perfectly fine so don't worry." Tugging on his arm. "Now bring me to this king."

.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・

Aleksander guides you to the area where the king is. When entering the room there seems to be an audience waiting for your arrival.

"King you have summoned me." Aleksander bows before returning his gaze back to the ruler on the throne.

"As the king I wish to know who that man is right next to you who seemingly was stone but was turned human." The king slightly glares at you.

"This is my husband sire, he's a grisha just like the rest of us but special." The kings eyes widened at the word 'special' and suddenly he was intrigued.

"Special in what way? In the ability to turn into to stone?" He mocks your previous situation but he won't be mocking you soon enough.

"No sire he's an elementalist, he possesses the abilities to control all the elements not only that but all the elements are friends to him and they care very deeply for him." He explains to the king who seems to be as dumb as his father.

"Then why was he stone? If the elements are friends to him, why would they turn him into stone." You internally rolled your eyes and remember how dumb kings could be.

"My father didn't approve of our marriage and turned him into stone, I knew how to turn him back but the spell needed a sun summoner and at the time I thought they didn't exist but then Alina came along." He motions to Alina who is next to Genya.

The king frowned at the story not knowing it was all a lie" That's so sad, he may stay with you in your palace and I assume he's already combat trained." Aleksander nods he goes to speak but is interrupted by you.

"I've fought the most powerful grisha ever, I only lost because I thought he was going to finally accept us but I won't be tricked again, you have my word sire." You bow showing that you have proper etiquette when speaking to a royal.

The king nods "You are dismissed." You both bow again and leave the room.

"Let's head to my quarters." You nod and he grabs your hand taking you back to his area.

Nsfw after the time skip

.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・

As soon as you and Alek get to his room he immediately starts taking off all his clothing, throwing them randomly around the room.

"Why are you taking your clothes off." Closing the door behind you so no one peeping could see your man getting undressed.

You hear a sinister laugh come from his mouth. He turns to you with half of his shirt off showing his delicious abs.

"I haven't been able to touch you in years, not once have I been able to make love to you but that changes today darling." He slowly walks over to you prowling like a lion for it's prey.

He gets right in front of your face, cornering you leaving you between the door and him. He slams his lips into yours the kiss starts slow but soon the kiss becomes heated and passionate with love.

He wraps your legs around his waist keeping you steady on the door. You bring your arms around his neck trying to bring him in any closer, still kissing you he starts to move towards the bed laying down while he hovers over you.

You could feel the darkness slowly creep up your legs slowly taking your clothing off one by one soon leaving you bare naked.

"Seems your powers aren't under control." You pull away from the kiss and slowly pull down his pants and underwear. His hard cock was released from it's confinement, it twitched when feeling the cold air.

"Sorry about that darling but they'll probably be joining us they probably missed you as much as I do." Dark tendrils start creeping up your leg but you ignore them and focus on your boyfriend.

You pull Aleksander back into a kiss, taking action you flip him over on to his back leaving you right in front of his cock that was laying right between you cheeks. While kissing him you slowly move your hips up and down sending even more pleasure to his body.

Aleksander once again pulls away from the kiss and looks to the corner side table, opening the cabinet doors and grabbing the lube, applying some of it to his fingers. He moves his hands towards your hole circling around it teasing you before suddenly plunging one finger in. You clenched around the finger and moaned at the intrusion, even though it's been awhile since you've had sex you still knew the ropes.

Aleksander searches for the special spot, upon finding it he hears you moan louder than before.

"Bingo." He says under his breath before inserting 2 more fingers into you, attacking that special spot leaving you a moaning mess. He brings you down to capture your lips trying to quiet the sounds coming from your mouth.

Pulling away from the kiss, he trails down your neck leaving hickeys in his path, moving from your neck he moves to your nipples lapping them getting them nice and hard before bring his other hand to your cock slowly jerking it barely leaving you able to speak coherent words.

"Please I can't wait any longer." You whine out, your lust had started to become unbearable. "What is it that you want darling." He smirks he knows what you want but he wants for you to say it.

"I want your cock General." The word general struck a string in Aleksander and he hurried to take his fingers out of you and lubed his cock up. He spreads your cheeks open and slowly slides his cock inside of you, you moan at the feeling. This was the first time in centuries you've had sex with your beloved and he hadn't even started the real show and you loved it.

While still in you, he takes his hands off your cock and turns you on to your back before he starts thrusting in and out of your hole. At first he sets the pace at a slow speed trying to find the sweet spot again that made you make beautiful sounds. Once he found it, he started thrusting at abnormal speed, leaving you crying with pleasure. You knew that whole entire palace could hear but you didn't care because all your focus was on Aleksander.

"You looks so beautiful under me with pools of pre-cum on your stomach." He moves one of his hands to your cock moving it at the same speed as his thrust leaving you almost breathless while overwhelmed.

"Alek I'm close." You manage to get the words out of your lips. He leans down and captures your lips for a quick kiss "I'm close too darling cum with me." You nod pulling his lips back to yours. The kiss became sloppy as both of you came to your breaking points.

His thrust started to slow down and became sloppy same with his hand movements. He pulls away and says "I'm cumming." You could feel his cum filling you up making you cum as well all over his hand.

He pulls out of you licking your cum from his hand and kissing you, you could taste yourself on his tongue. He pulls away and flops next to you.

"Shouldn't we clean up honey." You turn to him, looking into his pitch black eyes.

"We can do that in the morning but for now I want to cuddle with the one I love if you don't mind?" He brings his hand to your cheek, caressing it ever so slightly.

"Of course, I want to feel you for eternity." You curl into his side and lay your head upon his chest. You let yourself to be pulled by the comfort of sleep and the knowing feeling that your able to be with Aleksander for ever.

"And I said I'd love you for eternity." He whispers before himself falls to the succumbing feeling of sleep, knowing he finally has the one thing that matters, You.

.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・

Little did the both of them know that someone was listening to them, listening to there sweet words and they didn't like it.

It's surprising that people didn't notice the sun shining so late at night but the sun didn't shine at night so what was it.....

E | Completed | 70k | Alternate Canon | The Darkling/Nikolai Lantsov

A life spent at sea, years after years of forging himself a new name, a new face―an identity to replace the one stolen from him. But it all so easily shatters, and by the most innocuous of objects: a letter, beckoning him home.

Or: Nikolai learns the most important truth of all. A love offered thrice may very well be true, but he must first find who he is to embrace it.

― with the sun against our back, a shadow and bone fic, part three of the series of monsters and men

“i found you” || j.p

a/n ; when i say this is completely self indulgent i mean COMPLETELY i wrote this with myself in mind i literally just wanted to feel loved,,, anyways. not my best work but <3 writers block is hard ok .

-

“because i’ll fall in love with you, again and again. in every life, my heart is yours.”

“james-“ he had whispered, breath shaking.

“so you can erase my memories y/n, but i’ll find you. maybe walking down the street, maybe at a coffee shop, maybe on a trip half way across the world. i will find you, and i will fall in love all over again.” and so, he did.

-

there was a boy.

a boy with short black hair, slightly covering eyes james had never been able to properly see.

a boy with sweaters too long, and shaking hands with every cup of coffee he ordered.

a boy, who walked with his back straight, and his left hand tapping a rhythm only he could hear on his leg.

a boy who’s gaze lingered on james, but never long enough for james’ own to catch up.

a boy who smelt like sea water and when he got close enough, a boy who has freckles in the shape of stars dusting over the bridge of his nose.

a boy james’ soul ached for, in a way he could not explain. he wanted to reach out, to touch, to hold. he wanted to feel, to see. he wanted him.

but the boy was always too fast, and he slipped right through james’ fingers every time he got too close.

and moments he’d think he got close enough, fingers closing and chest racing, the boy would disappear again.

yet he always came back, day after day. he’d walk by, and james’ breath would be taken away all over again.

the boy never stayed long, he’d linger. a moment or too, as if he had something to say, right on the tip of his tongue. like he wanted to reach out, and james would let him, of course he’d let him.

but the boy always ended up walking away.

james hoped for a moment or two, that this would be the day he finally reached.

and there was something so familiar, an underlying feeling, comfort, about the boy.

a feeling that reached deep into his chest, intertwined with his ribs, closed over his soul and squeezed. a feeling so dull yet so bright, a feeling james could not put a finger on, but if he had to; home.

if james stopped to think about it, he could recall faint pictures.

fallen stars, soft wings, traces of grace in between lingering kisses. a smile. a touch, fingertips pressed against his neck, a ghost of a voice whispering his name.

metal swords pressed onto cheeks, laughs that sounded like sunshine, dreams that tasted like sugar. distant creations, sunsets and golden halos. cries of joy and promises whispered against eyelids.

the boy reminded him of a distant stranger he could no longer recall.

it didn’t matter, not now. when the boy was standing in front of him, brown eyes, his eyes were brown, looking up at him, hands softly placed on the card he held out for james.

and james had to stop for a moment.

soft features, familiar, warm. his hair fell, gently caressing his cheeks. it had grown, and strands curled around his ears in such a delicate way.

angelic in a way. the soft lighting of the coffee shop surrounded the boy, making the specks on his cheeks more prominent.

for a moment james could see it, the faint glow of a halo above his head, the outline of lost wings resting behind him.

an image flashed in his mind, silver rays of moonlight, an image so clear of a boy, this boy, a small smile decorated his face, wings spread behind him as if all he was meant to do was fly.

the image, dusted in stardust and eyes full of faith, of love, and of a faraway place, heaven.

the boy in front of him, an angel.

‘y/n’ his souls whispered, and his breath caught in his throat.

memories came in waves, and the boys eyes widened for a moment, as if he could recall everything, every kiss, every touch, every word, that james was at the moment.

the boy took a step back, ready to rush off, but this time, james reached.

his hand fell softly against the boys wrist, and a memory ram through his mind.

-

“i love you” his hand was on his wrist, tears in his eyes, wings burned behind him.

the angel shook his head, gently reaching for his hand.

“you can’t james, you have to forget me” he whispered, voice broken, tears falling down his cheeks.

“even if i forget you, it doesn’t matter” he had begged, hand pulling and reaching, determined to keep his angel close.

“what do you mean?” the being had asked, hands shaking at his sides.

“because i’ll fall in love with you, again and again. in every life, my heart is yours.”

-

the boy was in front of him, the same boy he had let slip through his fingers far too many times. the same boy he’d fall over and over for, wether it meant losing his wings, or falling in love.

the boy he’d forgotten, the boy he’d loved for years after years. the boy he’d fly through stars with, and land gently upon clouds, kissed pressed lovingly to temples and hands joined.

the boy he’d let take his heart and his mind, the boy he’d lost so many years, lifetimes, ago.

james pulled, the boy, the angel, y/n, towards him.

breath taken away, hands shaking, heart beating so fast in his chest he half expected it to fly to the moon.

the hand pressed against his wrist, the familiar hold, he relished in it. he was real, he was there, he remembered.

“i found you.” and he fell. again.
