・゜゜・．｡･ﾟﾟ･｡・゜゜・． I have written a few oneshots for our favorite Shadow and Bone Couple😁 Some of these oneshots will include: - Darkling and child Alina interactions if he had discovered her when she was younger - Darklina wedding - A few scenes from the Shadow and Bone series with the Darkling's perspective - Darklina Jealousy And more! Feel free to comment any requests and I will do my best to write them. ・゜゜・．｡･ﾟﾟ･｡・゜゜・． All credit for the world and characters goes to the amazing Leigh Bardugo. Oneshots created by me. ・゜゜・．｡･ﾟﾟ･｡・゜゜・．

Aleksander didn't expect their tether to be so strong. He is drawn to her and he just doesn't want to resist this pull, he had already waited long enough to find her. Or: What if Baghra hadn't come to rescue her? Not the common smut where they fuck after he comes back to her. There's plenty of that. I mean, no one ever thought that she could find out about Marie's death? Little fluff (to much fluff for the Darkling's mind). The story will go deeper in the explanation of their bond (there will be telepathy), and a grey, maybe a little OOC, Alina. Before this if you want you can read my other story 'The best thing that life ever gave him' set before the fete and from the Darkling's point of view. All my stories are also on Ao3 and FanFiction.net

A Darklina fanfic following what could have been if Alina made a different choice following her conversation with Baghra. This is based purely from the show, I have not read the books.

"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

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. Victorious. - The Darkling's forces are too great. The nichevo'ya, the Grisha, the merzost... Alina Starkov has no choice but to surrender and become the Darkling's Queen. - DARKLING X ALINA FANFIC TAKES PLACE AFTER CH 11 RUIN AND RISING (SPOILERS) I update Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays!
