An Ember in the Darkness by Sweptupmaddy
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
15 Aug 2025
Tags
Summary
The Blood Rite has passed. Briallyn is dead. It's quiet, too quiet for Azriel, whose increasing loneliness is compounded by the fact that it seems his family is moving on with their lives without him. He had no mate, and Rhys had made it abundantly clear that Elain was off the table. No one wanted him. How long would it be before his brothers no longer needed him at all?
Eris really needed to kill his father and yet no matter what he had told the illustrious Night Court, he had no plan for it. Killing a high lord was extremely difficult, after all. But his current situation was untenable, especially as Beron started looking beyond the bounds of his own court. How many more lies could Eris balance before his life came crashing down around him?
This starts immediately after ACOSF and ignores anything from CC3.

Summary
"One thing was clear to her about this predicament: Lucien was furious."
An enchanted pair of handcuffs. A prank gone wrong. A bottle of whiskey. This was turning out to be the most awkward Winter Solstice for Elain and Lucien yet.

A Court of Truth and Healing by flamesandshadows
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
16 Jan 2022
Tags
Summary
After returning home from Under the Mountain, everyone is struggling to cope with the trauma of Amarantha's reign. Rhys lingers in the shadows at the Spring Court, concerned about Feyre's mental health, and his presence spurs events to unfold in unexpected ways.
The plot covers the events of A Court of Mist and Fury with major alterations. In this AU, we see what could have happened if characters were honest with each other, and talked things out rather than speaking in riddles or just avoiding topics altogether. We also get some actual apologies for egregious behavior that got glossed over in canon (looking at you, Rhys Under the Mountain) and big reveals that get put off to later books or not at all (looking at you, Lucien's paternity).
Relationships in this AU are fully consensual rather than based on bargains made under duress, half-truths, or huge power imbalances, so romances that had an enemies-to-lovers flavor feel more like friends to lovers.

Summary
I brought a knife to a gun fight. They took the crown but it's alright.
Elain has spent three years in Night Court trying to find the same belonging her sisters have found with little success. When she looks in the mirror, all she can see are pieces of the person she once was. She's looking for a way out.
Lucien spends more time away in the mortal lands than he does in Night Court, unable to stand looking at Elain, the mate he didn't want and, in turn, is so terrified of him she shrinks in his presence. Keeping distance makes the bond bearable, though after three years, he's ready for her to reject it and let him move on.Enter Helion, High Lord of Day Court. Realizing Elain is looking for something more, Helion offers her an opportunity she can't pass up and a reason for Lucien to stick around for longer than a day. Helion has more up his sleeve than just a little matchmaking, and his actions have far reaching consequences for everyone in Pyrthian.

I Would Never Fall Unless It's You by TilSeptemberends
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas

Summary
Lucien was having an awful day even before he managed to get caught in a snare. He's not exactly pleased about the whole 'being stuck as a fox' thing either. But he also can't find it in himself to complain about the human woman who took him in upon seeing his injuries. Once he's able to shift back it only gets more complicated and he finds himself returning to the Archeron estate. Elain is kind and as much as Lucien tries to convince himself to stay away he can't help but look for the warm gardener who sees past his scars and smart remarks.
Elain has enough on her plate without the fox she rescued in the woods turning into a fae male. She is keenly aware of what she is risking when she opens the door for Lucien, but even after warnings about potential enemies in the Spring Court Elain can't imagine that the sweet fox who had slept on her pillow while he recovered from his injuries could possibly mean her harm. And more than that she's not sure she could keep the door shut on Lucien if she wanted to. Not with the invisible thread that pulled her in his direction. Not when he sometimes looked at her like he could feel it too.

“And who was I to say
That this was meant to be?
The road that was broken
Brought us together“Elain couldn’t help her slight guffaw even as she tried to hang on to her annoyance. “You can’t just decide to be my best friend.”
He leaned back on his arms nonchalantly, “Too bad. I just did.”
Elain and Lucien decide to ignore the mating bond and work on being friends. But the more they’re together the more they want to be. Can they move past who they were to discover what they could become?

Summary
When ghosts from Lucien's past come back to haunt him, he finds himself allied with Azriel, leading to unexpected respect and friendship.
This idea came to me after a lengthy conversation with a friend where I realized that Lucien and Azriel have a lot in common in terms of their backgrounds and families. I'm bracing myself for them to end up in a messy love triangle with Elain whenever a new ACOTAR book comes out, but this story was an opportunity to explore what would happen if they became friends instead.
Takes place just after ACOSF
This story will NOT focus on ships, but rather friendship and general relationship.

Summary
Eris Vanserra has always been a complicated male. Born as the first son to a tyrant of a High Lord, he was raised on cruelty, learning never to reveal weaknesses. But as Eris' allegiances to his father's court are questioned, his loyalties forming with those across borders, he realises enemies in his own court - especially his father - may be too difficult for him to keep at bay, especially when he inadvertently sets his father's sights onto his youngest brother. Then there's Rhysand's Inner Circle to contend with - one particular shadowsinger that Eris can't seem to avoid... but does he even want to?
---
Lucien Vanserra always thought his suffering at the Autumn Court's hands was behind him. But when his father shows a vested interest in him years after banishing him, it's clear he will have to fight to keep the fragile peace he's built himself. All Lucien wants is to be with Elain and begin a life of his own, but when Elain's life is threatened by his father, Lucien learns just how much he has to learn before life can truly begin.This is a direct continuation of the events of ACOSF. Joint POV of Eris and Lucien.

Summary
Through the haze, she watches Lucien grab hold of Azriel's wrist, bringing his scarred hand up to his lips. A pink tongue swirls around the two drenched digits that were buried between her legs only moments before. Lucien's mismatched eyes close, as he savors the taste of her on Azriel's fingers. Azriel’s hand is soaked, almost down to his wrist, and as Lucien sucks on scarred fingers, a soft gasp leaves his lips.
Elain, Azriel, and Lucien spend a lazy morning in bed.

Summary
This series is centred around a rewrite of ACOWAR, detailing Cassian and Azriel falling in love: The Warrior and His Shadow.
The other fics are mainly companion fics, expanding on ideas presented in the original fic.
Companion fics can be read on their own, but may be a bit confusing in some aspects (I do my best to give summaries in the Opening Notes)- Words:
