400 hundred years ago, Rhysand's sister and mother were killed by Tamlin's father. Or that was what everyone thought. 

Rhysand's sister was never killed. Instead Tamlin's father turned her into his personal slave.

Doing whatever he wished with her. She was raped, tortured and destroyed. 

But she never gave up. Because she had a plan. She had planned it for centuries and she was waiting for the perfect opportunity to flee.

But then Tamlin's father got killed. She knew who killed him. She had heard whispers from the staff that the new high lord of the night court had killed Tamlin's father. 

Her brother, Rhysand.

Tamlin never knew that she was stuck in the dungeon beneath his palace. He became the high lord of spring and she was left there.

The only one who knew she was in the dungeon was Tamlin's father's guard that gave her food once a day.

And when Hybern came she was given the perfect opportunity to get the hell out of there.

A/N: Please remember that English is not my first language and that I have no beta readers, so please be nice about any mistakes that I make. Thank you. It had been long since we last saw Feyre, but I felt her. She was alive after all. They hadn't killed her for saving her High Fae Lord. But I had felt her panic around two months after I felt her again, after our bond came back, after she got out from that Mountain. But Nesta wouldn't let me leave. She said it was nothing, that I was paranoid, but I know what she felt. She had wanted to be saved and she was, not by me, but I felt her relief and then anger. What had happened? Who knows? But she was safe, that was what mattered. She had a week thereafter where she was angry but relieved. After that it was blurry, all kind of emotions. But that day was it, I left despise Nesta saying it was nothing. I couldn't let her suffer like that. It felt like he has abused her, something I wouldn't allow. - Nala Archeron

What if I lived? ✔️ by Chihirophie
20 parts Complete Mature
Two hundred years ago Rhysand lost his mother and sister in a grueling murder. But what if that sister had survived? What if the head in that box was just a tree-stump, transformed to look exactly like her? What if she had instead been sold for her knowledge on the mysterious Night Court? And what if that sister would now, just a few years after the war, find her way back, but with agendas of her own? ****************************************************************************** "Alright, oh wise one, my need for wisdom has run out now, so you can be on your way now" I waved my hand. "That's cold" Rhys put a hand over his heart, " I thought we were having a big-bro-little-sis talk here." I rolled my eyes, but he slid an arm around my shoulder: "We both already know what you'll do anyway." "Oh, we do, is that right?" He nodded: "You always been so predictable, if you would write murder-mysteries everyone would know from the beginning who killed the victim." "That's weirdly specific, how long have you been sitting on that one?" I snorted. "Since you insulted my taste in art" he sniffed theatrically. I laughed: "You are one petty High Lord." "I don't even know what to say to that insolence" he shook his head.

A Court Of Flowers And Shadows {Azriel Shadowsinger} by faithelzbeth_writing

"You make my world just a little bit more full of light." "That's a little bit ironic don't you think?" "Well, flowers need light to grow so no, not really." Being the youngest and only daughter of the High Lord of the Spring is always weird. Especially when you are fully aware of the fact that your older brother Tamlin didn't want the title once your father was dead. Amara didn't have much in ways of comforts and time away from her brother but Rhysand had always been more than happy to take her away and to Velaris, as long as she swore that she would never tell Tamlin, her older brother. That was where she had been when the Blight hit.

In an unlikely alliance forged from family rivalry and an unwanted mating bond, Nyx and Zaria are Prythian's last hope of existence. Together, they must travel through the seven courts, reconciling their differences to save their home, and their parents. **Inspiration taken from the world created by Sarah J Maas**
