Hello <3 This is my first time ever writing fan fiction so bear with me. I am still not done reading the books so most of it is just made up and not completely accurate so please don't come for me lol. If you ship darklina and want to read a bunch of fluffy angsty smut this is the story for you. If you like Mal.. well I'm sorry. (also there will be no Nikolai in this fic.) (SPOILERS) Brief summary: What if Alina's story took an unexpected turn? What if she didn't kill the Darkling? What if she destroyed the fold and instead tried to create a new reality for herself, one that no one would approve of but one that Alina wanted with every part of her. COMPLETED BUT I MAY UPDATE RANDOMLY CAUSE WHY NOT :) HUGE DISCLAIMER THESE ARE NOT MY CHARACTERS OR MY WORLD. PLEASE CHECK OUT THE GRISHA TRILOGY BECAUSE ITS AWESOME

"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.

"Um herdeiro?" Alina cospe metade de seu chá, estragando um de seus roupões mais finos. Ela está muito ocupada limpando a bagunça com guardanapos, bochechas quentes, para notar o olhar confuso que seu marido lhe dá por cima do jornal, do outro lado da mesa do café da manhã. Ela rapidamente descobre que ele não está brincando. (Ou: Aleksander Morozova pede um bebê à esposa, e ela descobre que não se opõe à ideia.) Vsegda, ou всегда, é a palavra russa para sempre.
