Ketterdam does not forgive softness, and Kaz Brekker has built an empire on the promise that he has none. Sharp-minded, sharp-witted, and carved from grief, he is a myth wrapped in leather and shadows - until the one person who's seen every fracture in him steps out of his past and into his future. Eira has survived the same streets that made Kaz a monster, and unlike anyone else, she has walked beside him through every dark corner of the Barrel: the schemes, the blood, the ghosts that still claw at him from the harbour's depths. She knows the boy beneath the gloves. The one who bleeds. The one who fears. The one who wants. This isn't a love story. It's a story of survival, of loyalty, of grief. It's the story of two broken souls choosing each other in a city designed to devour them. And sometimes, that is the most dangerous thing. (Shadow and Bone season 1&2) (Disclaimer: I own nothing but Eira and the original scenes and dialogue I have written) (A/N: Please don't plagiarise. I hope you like it!)

Kaz Brekker always had a reason So what was his when he employed another girl from the Menagerie? Was it her sharp mind? Her skills? Her stubbornness that matched his own? Or perhaps it was her past, that not even she could remember.... Secrets she didn't even know she kept.... ( X READER VERSION OF THIS BOOK IS ON MY PROFILE) Best Ranks: #3 in Kazbrekker #3 in Sixofcrows #5 in Jesper ---- I do not own any of the Grishaverse characters, they were written by Leigh Bardugo and adapted by Netflix.

This story's idea was sponsored by a bottle of wine Kaz Brekker x fem! shapeshifter! reader, originally posted on tumblr, but I decided to put it up here too! Fluff, angst with a happy ending, friends to lovers, usual Crow shehanigans. Hope you enjoy! "Kaz Rietvield knew the exact moment he fell in love with the girl. He was fifteen, desperate to make her smile. But Kaz Brekker never fell in love. He didn't fall, he didn't run, he walked. His steps were calculated, not based on a hunch or fleeting feeling, but a conscious decision. She wasn't a last minute detour or just another stop on the way. Kaz knew exactly where he was going, and she was the destination."

"Just because you escape one trap, doesn't mean you will escape the next." Season one - Shadow and Bone Sabo was a Saint, born with the gift to summon sky-blue fire-something the Fjerdans feared enough to lock her away in the Ice Court. After her escape, Sabo has finally found something she never thought possible-a place to belong. Now, she calls the streets of Ketterdam home, picking up the occasional job for the Crows when the price-or the cause-is right. But when Kaz Brekker himself comes to her with a job unlike any other-one that involves finding a Saint-Sabo is forced to face the ghosts she thought she'd left behind. And this time, running might not be an option. Season two - Shadow and bone With unfinished business waiting in Ketterdam, Kaz must finally confront the shadows of his past and settle the score with Pekka Rollins. Meanwhile, Sabo finds herself in danger once more, hunted by the drüskelle who have discovered where she's hiding. Six of Crows It's been a year since Sabo left Ketterdam, and in that time, her world has changed. Her network has grown, quietly fueling the resistance against the brutal Fjerdan regime. While undercover for the cause, fate weaves her path back to Kaz Brekker. After seeing him she does what she's always done: she plans to leave Ketterdam behind. But then Kaz shows up again, offering her a job she can't ignore-one that hits far too close to her haunted past. Break into the very prison where she once lost everything... and break out a scientist who might just change the tide of the war. Crooked Kingdom Pekka Rollins had sold Sabo out to the drüskelle. Now she was caught in their grip. Long ago, she and Kaz had made a deal: if she was ever taken, he wouldn't come for her. No rescue. No risks. No debts owed. It was supposed to protect them both-to keep emotion out of the business they shared. Now, Sabo wonders if Kaz Brekker will keep his word. And somewhere in Ketterdam, Kaz is wondering if he ever meant to.

Nesta Marooz had many secrets. None which she was willing to share. But secrets have a way of worming their way out of staying secrets. Kaz Brekker also had secrets and he was certain that no one would ever find out what they were. But he hadn't counted on the presence of a dark-haired Ravkan girl who would change his life. For better or for worse? That he didn't know.
