"You might make me a better man." "And you might make me a monster." ― Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising PREVIEW: "I could not see it at the time," I told the Darkling. "I was too blinded by your half-truths and seduction to see clearly. You claimed me that day at the Grand Palace when you grabbed my hand in front of the King, demonstrating to the world that you had a naive Sun Summoner under your control. But I will never be yours." His colorless eyes flashed with fury and something that made them look hollow. Soulless. Inhuman. "Fine, make me your villain." I shifted in my seat uncomfortably. "But you are still my soldier," he fumed. "In my army. You are mine whether you like it or not." "I will put my self-worth before duty," I said coldly. We glared at each other through the mirror. Then, the Darkling's scowl seemed to fade leaving an unsettling glimmer of fire in his eyes. He leaned down leveling his mouth with my cheek. His lips brushed the shell of my ear when he whispered, "I will break you eventually. With time, you will see." ________________ If the Darkling succeeded in making Alina a monster, what would Alina act like under the Darkling's spell. Would she be cold and callous or would she try to fight it-would she try to be good? If you read my other Darklina book "The True Saint", this one is the opposite (although it does not connect with my other book so it can be read separately). Instead of Alina making Aleksander a better man, she becomes a monster. This takes place the night of the Winter Fete and continues until the end of Ruin & Rising. What would happen if Alina did not run that night and instead confronted the Darkling about her new knowledge of the Black Heretic? This book is a retelling of the Grisha trilogy if she had stayed-combining elements of the books and the show. ________________ Cover art by: morgana0anagrom Characters and universe created by: Leigh Bardugo #1 darklina 3/28 #1 thegrishaverse 12/29 #2 alina 1/14

The greatest Shadowhunter of his generation is what they say about the legendary Jace Wayland. But, what you don't know, is that they also say the same of his twin sister, Serena. For Serena is many things. She is the Clave Envoy to Downworlders. She is the parabatai to Isabelle Lightwood. And Serena herself, is a Lightwood, because she's married to none other than Alec Lightwood. Having grown up together, the four of them made a promise that whenever they go on a mission, four go in and four come out. Join them as they fight to keep that promise when their world is turned upside down by the introduction of Clary Fairchild, the fiery daughter of the biggest threat to the Shadow World, Valentine Morgenstern. Will they stay together? And above all, will they stay alive? #1 in aleclightwood #1 in isabellelightwood #1 in jacewayland #1 in cityofbones #1 in valentinemorgenstern #1 in jonathanmorgenstern #1 in shadowhuntersfanfiction #1 in magnusbane #1 in lightwood #1 in shadowhunters #1 in downworlders #1 in themortalinstruments #1 in claryfairchild #5 in magic #9 in demons (Seasons 1-3) (Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters or the plotline.

Also, I still suck at descriptions but we're not surprised.)

"You're lying to me," I croaked out. Aleksander didn't even flinch. The bastard knew, from the moment I wasn't in bed, that I had some idea of what he had done. Of course he wouldn't break down a door for no reason. "I don't want you worrying about it." "I'm Ravka's queen." It was more of a desperate plea than a statement of fact. "You're my wife before you're anything else," he murmured, pressing his hand to the side of my neck to lull me into the darkness of his touch, of sleep. *** Alina was safe. Aleksander was benevolent. Everything had been going perfect. But one year later, the Shu are a greater threat than ever and Alina is thrust into a dangerous pregnancy.

A shadow snaked up my arm, a gentle caress, a brush of the night. "My name, Alina." I lifted my head. "Please, Aleksander." The darkness fell away and the nichevo'ya went still. The Grisha stopped and faced us. I barely registered Mal's horrified gaze. "Stand." My knees shook, but I pushed myself to my feet and stared into the Darkling's quartz eyes. Lifeless. Empty.

"Just listen, Hunter. I'm Penelope Herrick, you don't answer a damn phone call while I'm naked on top of you. And maybe you shouldn't have marked me if you weren't ready to give me all of your attention." I shrugged. It didn't take long for him to slam me against the wall, pinning me with his ungodly strong body. "You've got my attention, now, little mate." he growled against my neck, his hot breath against my mark making me squirm. And then suddenly, I came to the realization that Hunter was far easier to deal with when I did what he said. "Sometimes I think you start arguments just to start them," he chuckled a bit. I leaned my head up to press my lips against his and put my hands on his shoulders. Soon, he began kissing me back. By the time I broke the kiss he was no longer forcefully holding me to the wall, but he had carried me down the hall to the couch. "Yeah, maybe I do." ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Alpha's daughter Penelope is used to getting whatever she wants, when and where she wants it.
