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!

"I'm like your little pet," I said once, when they wouldn't stop glancing at me. "Have you fed me? Have you watered me? I bet they wonder." There was darkness in his voice when he responded, and it rushed through his fingers and into mine as our hands brushed together. "Not for long, Alina." He dipped his head down to my ear, dipped his volume to match. "That I can promise." »»-----　♔　-----«« The winter after the Darkling is defeated, Alina and Mal decide to stay in a cabin before officially settling down. After a fight, Alina is left to live alone.

༶•┈┈ ♛ ┈┈•༶ "You really want me to shy away like I used to? Like your little mouse?" I pierce him with every word. The Darkling stares back and for a while the only thing that moves in the room are the shadows. "Alina, you misunderstand me. I have waited centuries for someone like you. Centuries, Alina, alone. I do not need to answer your question. You know what I want." Please don't say it, I think. "I want you to be my Queen, Alina." He pushes off from his chair and I shiver in my seat as he pauses by my side. The Darkling's hands find my chin and he holds my head tenderly with both hands. My power sparks at his touch like fire to kindling and I have to clench a hand in my dress skirt to keep control. He makes sure my gaze is entirely on him when he says, "And you know you will." I shake underneath the pressure of his words and he strokes my chin to calm me. Fine, but he has no idea what he is asking for. I shall be a queen, but not his. And he will regret the day he forced me back at his side like a dog. Aleksander, I think, bow. ༶•┈┈ ♛ ┈┈•༶ It starts with burst of light, like it did in the beginning.

┍──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┑ Love. War. Death. Hate. Peace. Birth. What if Alina and Aleksander had spent the night together? What if their child held both the power of light and shadow? ┕──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┙ After she abandoned the Darkling in the Fold, Alina thought she could live the rest of her life in hiding with Mal. But 13 years later he finds her again and comes across a big surprise... ┍──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┑ This is based on the Netflix and book series and takes place after Season 1/Book 1. But it is mostly an AU story. I will not be including the Crows, because that'd just make it too confusing for me. So I'm sticking to the Grisha trilogy characters and my OCs. ┕──༺⋆⋅☆⋅⋆༻──┙ #2 Alina 2/06/21 #9 Darklina 2/06/21

Alina Starkov expected to wake up on a ship sailing across the True Sea, one that would take her far from Ravka, far from the Darkling and his mad crusade. Instead, she awoke in Os Alta to a devastating truth: the war was won nearly a century ago, her first love was dead, and she remembered nothing. Not even that, as part of her surrender, she agreed to a political marriage.

Shadow and bone, but with Alina actually picking the right guy, and no, I'm not talking about Nikolai. Situated after reading the shadow and bone series (spoilers for the darklings real name) Warning for smut? I guess

She isn't quite herself; neither is he. But when they come together, it's explosive.

At the end of Ruin & Rising, Alina agrees to cooperate with the Darkling in order to keep her friends alive. A year has since passed. Slowly, she comes to realize her true potential, and slowly, she starts to understand him. What would happen if she were to take the throne by his side? (SMUT)
