A story following the life of Jude Duarte-Greenbriar and Cardan Greenbriar as monarchs of Elfhame and lovers. This story happens after the trilogy "folk of the air", I have NOT finished reading the other two books, "The stolen heir" and the "The prisoner's throne" sooooo if anything goes against of what happens in those books I'm so so so sorry!!! This is what I hope happened after "The queen of nothing", have a good reading session!

(Jurdan AU: arranged marriage/spy Jude) To destroy Cardan may mean destroying the one person who truly sees her. To love him may mean betraying everything she was raised to fight for. ~ In the aftermath of a war that split humans and Fae into bitter, isolated kingdoms, Jude Duarte-a human princess raised as a weapon-is her people's only hope of exacting revenge against Faerie. Forced by her father, King Madoc, into a political marriage with Cardan Greenbriar Jude enters Faerie with a singular goal: to infiltrate and dismantle it from within. Armed with her father's teachings and her own ruthless ambition, she embeds herself in Cardan's court, gathering secrets, exploiting rivalries, and quietly turning ally against ally. But Faerie is not so easily undone. Cardan proves to be more than the cruel, careless king she expected. Beneath his sharp tongue and decadent cruelty lies a mind as cunning as her own-and a loneliness that begins to mirror her own carefully buried fractures. As court politics grow more treacherous and her web of lies tightens, Jude finds herself drawn into a dangerous game where control slips through her fingers, and the lines between enemy and ally begin to blur.

Cardan Greenbriar is the High King of Elfhame. Everyone believes he's the one on the throne. But they don't see behind the curtains, the puppeteer pulling the strings, is Jude Duarte. When Jude's sister gets caught up in suspicious business with Flame members, an evil organization set to get Cardan off the throne (and Balekin on it), everything turns on its head- -and Jude and Cardan might be hiding secrets of their own.. from each other.

Hey so this is a fan-fiction of the 4th book of folk of the air. I do not own these characters. And I do not own the original story line of the past books either. This is just what I would want to happen after the ending. Also this could be taken as 5th book as well. But I did not consider the novel inspired by Cardan in this. Hope you enjoy Also please do not hate cause I am still in school. If you do not like it you can stop reading. I would appreciate it if you did not say anything. Thankyou.

This story is a fanfiction of Jude and Cardan. It highlights the period after the war with the serpent and the intense emotions reflected by the couple at the moment of losing each other. It will act like a bandage for those who have been wounded by the struggles faced by both Jude and Cardan.

A crown can demand strength. Love, however, asks for something softer. In this story, Jude and Cardan step into a quieter season of their lives-one filled with hushed moments, careful touches, and a love that learns to be gentle. As Jude carries new life, the weight she bears is no longer just a kingdom, but something far more fragile... and far more precious. Cardan, once known for his cruelty, finds himself changing in the smallest, most meaningful ways-hovering a little closer, holding her a little longer, and loving her in ways he never knew he could. Through restless nights, soft laughter, unspoken fears, and growing hope, they learn to navigate this new chapter together. Because sometimes, the greatest power isn't in ruling a kingdom- it's in holding the people you love with care. 💙 All the characters belong to Holly Jackson

A Fanfiction on the book series "Folk of the Air Series" by Holly Black. This is a completely fictional story, and no hatred towards the writer too.

There is Cardan's bed, and Jude simply throws herself onto it.
