At a young age, before she was tested, she discovered that she had powers to summon the shadows. The only people who ever knew were those close to her. However, the time comes when she has to cross the Fold, but something happens with her powers, and it is revealed that she is something greater. Follows the books of Shadow and Bone, Siege and Storm, and Ruin and Rising. Nikolai Lantsov x Reader x The Darkling All rights reserved to the amazing Leigh Bardugo, except for the plotline pieces that I have added and my characters. Also, this book is similar to Heir of Merlin, where I will be borrowing tidbits from the books.

The Darkling just sits there and stares at me, observing me the way he always does. Moments pass, I become frustrated and snap at him. "Well? Are you going to yell at me? Hurt me? Tell me how you are the only one that I am equivalent to in my eternal life, so I should rely solely on you? He raises an eyebrow. "All of those would be sufficient options, but no." I scoff in response before asking, "then... what are you going to do with me?" He reaches out and traces the features of my jaw and face. He replies, "well that will depend on you." "Me?" I ask warily. He moves a strand of hair out of my face and continues to caress my cheek. "Yes," he exhales. "I don't want you to hate me, Alina. It is up to you to decide whether you want me to be your villain or your husband." #1 darklina 10/24 #1 shadowandbone 12/22 #1 fantasy-romance 2/24 #1 darkling 8/24Complete
