Divergent storyline after Alina and Mal find the stag. Alina is captured by General Kirigan, but he doesn't kill the stag immediately. There is a second chance for shadow and light. Will Alina be sucked into the darkness or will she bring Aleksander into the light? (based on Shadow and Bone tv series only).

What if Alina always knew that she had powers but she kept it secret? What if she knew how to use her powers right away? Would she and the darkling be a couple or would they die alone?

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

This Fan-Fic follows Alina, blinded by the darkling and unable to access her powers. She must rise to be his balance. Darkling and Alina Fan-Fic. Alternate ending to Ruin and Rising for those who want to read more of that sweet, sweet Darklina drama! (SPOILERS!!) :)) On the fold, Alina Starvok hesitates. Unable to take Mal's life, her hesitation costs her the battle. The Darkling kills Mal, taking the last of Morsovona's amplifiers for himself, rendering him and Alina bound together for eternity. This is a battle of power, politics and love. 22/22 chapters

Alina gets abandoned by her birth mother, placing her directly outside the fold. Her mother intended for her daughter to die, however a volcra adopted her instead. Her mother encouraging her to see the outside world. Not my cover art. I dont own the shadow and bone franchise.

In a desperate attempt to save ravka Alina intends to time travel to before her power was revealed and kill the darkling the first chance she gets. Things go wrong and Alina accidentally travels hundreds of years back in time. When she is there she meets the darkling before he became the black heretic and before the fold was created.

What if the Darkling was a softie, he wasn't a villain but people wanted him to be? Mal is a nasty guy and Alina has the best life (LOTS OF THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT BUT A BIT WILL BE SIMILAR)

Alina Starkova was never an orphan. Discovered by Grisha examiners in the valley of Dva Stolba when she is nine years old, she is taken from her troubled family and grows up in the Little Palace as the Darkling's protege. Alina is forever caught between the expectations of powerful men; the pressure of being a Sun Summoner, Sankta and the Black General's little pet tears her in every direction. Perhaps no surprise, then, that she grows up troubled and rebellious. With a hatred for being controlled, a fierce temper, a knack for seeing through lies, and the power of a god in the palm of her hand, Alina is hardly the pawn, saint or consort everyone seems to want her to be. She does not care; her life is her own, and she won't let anyone change that. (or in other words, I get sick of Alina not making a single meaningful decision for herself. Imagine a Sun Summoner at full strength, politically savvy, yet determined to be a rebel without a cause) * The girl who many knew as Sankta Alina was sprawled out on her bed, dead drunk. She had been dumped there unceremoniously by the oprichniki who had the delightful job of hauling her back from a gambling den in the outer city. Her hair was a birdsnest, fanning out around her head. There was blood on her knuckles and dirt on her face. Her dress was that of a commoner, and none too modest either. The Darkling frowned as he took in the low neckline and rather tight long skirts. Not that he didn't appreciate the shape of her, but he hated the idea that lesser men had been gawping at her all night, not realising who exactly stood before them. "Alina," His voice was sharp, causing her eyes to blearily blink open. The sight of him seemed to sober the girl up somewhat, but not nearly enough. She groaned immediately, hand moving to cover her eyes. "Go away," She was the only one who dared speak to him with such little respect. The Darkling's eyes narrowed.
