Azriel believes nothing but darkness follows him. While his brothers begin to live their lives with love and happiness, Azriel feels nothing but empty, certain that happiness would never find him amongst the scars of his dark past.

Gwyn has overcome the most horrific of traumas. And survived. Now that she has won the Blood Rite, she is determined to start living her life again. Even as her trauma continues to haunt her. 

Offered a position in the inner circle, Gwyn finds herself working alongside the mysterious Shadowsinger. As their work brings them closer together, they realize that, perhaps, all they need is each other to  rid themselves of their darkness once and for all.All Rights Reserved

A Song of Faithless Shadows by yourlocalsag

Gwyneth had always felt connected to her faith, a higher power presiding over her. That faith had shaken that devastating day those years ago, the day that went on to haunt her every nightmare for years to come. She's still trying to come back from it, to not only restore her faith in life and love, but her faith in herself. The sanctity of her spirit- she prayed for resolve. Every punch was a prayer. Every mile was a hymn. Until her knuckles bled and her knees gave. Azriel had been surrounded by darkness his whole life, a poison on his world, on his being. He exercised restraint in his every waking moment, banishing that darkness within himself. Some guessed of the strain it put on him, but no one knew the extent of it, how deep his scars ran. It was better this way, he was sure. He had always thought that if there were a higher power- which he wholly doubted- such deities must loathe him to have burdened him such darkness. He hadn't much faith in the gods anyway, much less faith that he could sway their opinion on him. But Gwyneth and Azriel did have one thing in common: the quiet fight within themselves. They only knew one way: to go about it alone, couldn't fathom letting another in. But there's a magic in finding someone who is your equal but opposite, something transforming. And frankly, Gwyneth and Azriel could both use a little magic. All characters owned by SJM in the ACOTAR series. Story takes place after the events of ACOSF. Aligns with the events in my other fic: A Storm of Flames and Deceit. I haven't finished Crescent City, so this story takes place outside of the events of those books as well. CONTENT WARNING ⚠️ Mentions of r*pe, use of profanity, explicit content, sexual content, violence, torture, mentions of suicidal thoughts and depression, mentions of self harm

Rules for Spies by houseofhurricane

When she meets his eye, it's like those times when they glance at each other during training, when they're in perfect agreement for an extended, shining moment. Azriel extends his hand, his Siphon gleaming cobalt and his fingers bare even in this cold, the scars an intricate mark of whatever he himself has survived. "Welcome to the mission, Gwyn," he says, and Gwyn wants to savor it, the feeling of his hand wrapped around hers, his long fingers brushing her wrist. The approval she sees in those lovely eyes. She could swear she sees one of his shadows make its way up her arm. &&& While Azriel and Gwyn work to free Koschei's captives, attraction turns into something more.

Healing in the Ruins (ACOTAR - Cassian x OC) by Bia_1989

In a world where love defies the ordinary, Elara and Azriel have forged a bond that surpasses fate itself-a vow marked upon their skin, a promise stronger than any title or ring. But when Elara wakes one night to find their mark beginning to fade, everything she thought was unbreakable is suddenly at risk. As she grapples with the unraveling of their bond, she is forced to confront the true depths of love, sacrifice, and the limits of even the strongest promises. In the wake of heartbreak, Elara must find a way forward in a world forever changed. With unexpected companionship and the weight of memory pressing down, she embarks on a journey of grief, resilience, and the possibility of new beginnings. But some loves are not easily left behind-and some vows are never truly broken. A story of devotion, loss, and the uncharted path between holding on and letting go. *Denotes mature chapters*
