Summary
The declaration slams into her. Shackled. The fissure of her heart is so stark and sudden, she’s surprised nobody hears the resounding crack echoing through her. She staggers back a step, putting distance between them. It makes that bond, that thread attached to her rib, linking them together, ache painfully.
_____
When Cassian breaks Nesta’s heart, she leaves Velaris, determined to leave everything and everyone behind for once and for all.
Unbeknownst to him, Cassian is at risk of loosing not only the love of his life, but a chance at having the one thing he has craved ever since being dumped at the Illyrian war camp as a youngling as well.- Language:

Summary
“Zer liburu mota da?”
Tilting her head, Nesta furrowed her brows, confused.
Cassian pursed his lips, thinking how best to translate.
“Liburu. Libro. Is, um… “ Raising his hand, he made a mock stabbing motion. “Crime? Or erromantzea…romance?"
“Oh!” Nesta said, understanding. “Oh, yes. Romance. I write romance. Romance books.”

Summary
“Holy shit, you scared me!” She yanks her wrist back, lowering the tire iron. Her heart is attempting to hammer out of her chest.
“You’re the one brandishing a weapon.” He’s holding up his hands in surrender, eyes gleaming.
“I am a woman alone at a cabin that’s supposed to be abandoned. What else was I supposed to do? This was the most suitable thing I could use in self-defence.”
“Sure. You’re very threatening. I’m positively terrified.” He nods at the tire iron. “Nesta Archeron, rural vigilante. You planning to change a tire or commit assault on a friend?”
Friend. Nesta swallows her response to that.
“I didn’t know it was you! What is—” She gestures at his face. “What is happening with all of that?”
He grins, running a hand over his jaw. “My face? What, you don’t like the mustache?”
—————
After her father's death, Nesta decides to take Feyre up on her offer to visit Rhys's cabin, expecting to find it empty. Fate (or family members) decides otherwise.

Summary
Nesta wakes to sunlight stabbing through unfamiliar curtains and the immediate, visceral knowledge that she’s made a terrible mistake.
Her head throbs. Her mouth tastes like expensive wine and poor decisions. Her body aches in places that make her face heat even in her half-asleep state. She’s naked—completely, utterly naked—in a hotel bed that is definitely not hers, wrapped in sheets that smell like sex and some woodsy cologne that she can still taste on her tongue.
The body beside her shifts, and Nesta freezes.
Oh god. Oh no.
—————
Nesta wakes up in Cassian’s hotel room the morning after her sister’s wedding and immediately panics. This was not supposed to happen... Written for romance week day five: Only One Bed.
