It's been years since Adaela followed her abducted sister to the cold, dark, crime-riddled city of Jokulsa. It's been years of working with gangs, training as an assassin, and stealing information for Vat'ik House in order to survive - and find information about her sister's whereabouts.
Hope running thin and options dwindling, Adaela's struggles escalate as mysterious deaths seems to follow everywhere she goes. As events continue to unfold, Adaela is forced to dive into a deeper, darker mystery that only takes her farther from her sister and her friends - and involves powers beyond anything Jokulsa has seen before.

After escaping her father's imprisonment and arriving in Ketterdam she went through an entire year of highs and lows with a certain group of crows. But one of them captured her attention more than the others. A man named Kaz Brekker. Now the Bastard of the Barrel is asking her to come with them on a job to a place she once vowed never to return. [Kaz Brekker x fem!OC] WARNING : This story involves some strong language, reference to sexual themes, and reference to physical and verbal abuse. NOTE : Hi everyone! Welcome to the second part of this series. This part follows the plot line of the first season of Shadow and Bone on Netflix. I would recommend going to read the first part to get some sense of the relationships between this OC and the other characters but I tried my best not to make it a necessity. As always, I can only take credit for the OC's in this fanfic. All other rights go to Netflix and the incredible Leigh Bardugo. I hope you all enjoy and will stick around to see what Winnie will get up to in season 2 ...Complete

Magic Tricks 🔮 Book 2 || gxg
« WAM book two » Ada was tired of running. Yes, she was the one with the lockpicks who helped Sam the winter prior with her little key issue. It's one of the many bizarre, frankly illegal things she's good at. It would take a long time to explain it all, but suffice it to say she helped Charles and Jocelyn, twins six years her senior, steal a lot of shit. She grew tired of it, though, and after some planning with Detective Hillebrandt, she gave her siblings a tip and made sure there was tangible evidence on the two for a search warrant to be executed the following morning to uncover. It was supposed to be in the bag. She did everything right. Some clerical error led to the warrant being thrown out before it even reached court, along with the entire case. Charles and Jocelyn walked, but Ada was already running by then. So, it's back to square one. She's up to her eyeballs in werewolf politics, trying to be the perfect girlfriend while planning the biggest heist of her life in a last ditch effort to put her greedy siblings behind bars, for good this time.
