Characters and universe created by Leigh Bardugo. ___________ Once I have calmed down, he lets go and leans back in his chair placed beside me. The Darkling just sits there and stares at me, observing me the way he always does. Moments pass, I become frustrated and snap at him. "Well? Are you going to yell at me? Hurt me? Tell me how you are the only one that I am equivalent to in my eternal life, so I should rely solely on you? He raises an eyebrow. "All of those would be sufficient options, but no." I scoff in response before asking, "then... what are you going to do with me?" He reaches out and traces the features of my jaw and face. He replies, "well that will depend on you." "Me?" I ask warily. He moves a strand of hair out of my face and continues to caress my cheek. "Yes," he exhales. "I don't want you to hate me, Alina. It is up to you to decide whether you want me to be your villain or your husband." #1 darklina 10/24 #1 shadowandbone 12/22 #1 fantasy-romance 2/24 #1 darkling 8/24

"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. When Aleksander refuses to give Alina the freedom she needs, old problems resurface *** DARKLING x ALINA FANFIC SEQUEL TO "MEANT TO BE MY BALANCE"

What if Baghra's motives for separating Aleksander and Alina were more sinister? I'd never meant to get this caught up in her. She was just suppose to be a means to an end, and perhaps a companion for eternity. Perhaps I'd have loved her eventually but I had assumed it would take years for that to happen. Not mere moments. I was doomed from the start. I'd had plans for the Sun Summoner for hundreds of years. How to control her, to use her against our enemies and yet... that all seemed to disappear when she finally came into my life. I'd never understood the concept of soulmates until her. Alina Starkov. My Sun Summoner. My equal. My other half. I never realized how much of myself was missing until she had been quiet literally dragged into my life.

La sombra lo oculta bien. El anhelo no es un sentimiento desconocido para Alina, ha anhelado muchas cosas a lo largo de su vida, volver a casa, olvidar que esto sucedió, ser otra persona... Pero hay algo más ahora, un deseo que la corrompe llevándola incluso a buscar al enemigo, porque ha descubierto que hay algo que sólo él le puede entregar. Un lugar en su corazón. Basado en los acontecimientos posteriores al primer libro: Sombra y Hueso.

Alina Starkov esperaba despertarse en un barco que navegaba por el Mar Auténtico, uno que la llevaría lejos de Ravka, lejos del Oscuro y su loca cruzada. En cambio, se despertó en Os Alta con una verdad devastadora: la guerra se ganó hace casi un siglo, su primer amor había muerto y no recordaba nada. Como si no fuera suficiente, como parte de su rendición, accedió a un matrimonio político. Traducción autorizada Obra original: Out of Time - A Darklina fanfiction de @destiniesfic

AU episode 5, where Alina heard what happened to Marie and Genya. She left the War Room with Aleksander. So Baghra didn't reveal the truth to her. It was AU about 5 episode, but I couldn't stop writing😅 And this story became completely about all after 5 episode AU with some book's vibe. Hope you love my writing 🥰 Also on AO3 P.S. English is not my mother tongue. So sorry for the possible mistakes.

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.
