What if Aleksander told Alina the truth about who he was the night of the Winter Fete?
Would she choose to stay with him? or Would she escape with Mal?
Little preview from the text:
"Aleksander ?"- She said as he stepped away.
"Alina before we continue there is something I must tell you,"- He said in a more serious tone.
"We won't have time for dinner is that it?" she said in a jokingly tone
(Oh what he wouldn't give to pause time right now before he even said anything, before she found out the truth about who he really was, how he wanted to manipulate her but he had fallen for her instead)
Just a little longer he thought... but she had the right to know.
Not sure where the story will go but darklina is end game.
I do not own these characters they were written by Leigh Bardugo from her series of books "Shadow and Bone"
Hope you enjoy it.

The Moon Summoner (The Darkling x Reader)
You're used to it all, the shadows, the bloodshed, the screams, you're always by his side after all. They call him The Darkling, but that's not who he is to you. To you he's everything, you worship even the ground he walks on. He calls and you answer. He orders and you obey. The only use you make of your ability to summon the moon is when he says so. To yourself, your ability is useless but still, he keeps you by his side in case you're needed, and you're almost never needed. After all, how can the moon ever compete with the brightness of the sun? Disclaimer! This book is based on the shadow and bone season 1 series that I watched on Netflix and I haven't read the books so this one will be different. It's only based on the characters and casts in the series and they aren't mine.Complete
