The Bodyguard by LoreLorelay

Summary
When Jude Duarte was given the task of protecting rising rockstar Cardan Greenbriar from a dangerous stalker, her intuition already told her it would be a tricky mission. But the capricious, irresponsible and annoyingly attractive boy seems to make everything even more difficult.
As if being threatened by a crazy stalker who wants to destroy his life wasn’t enough trouble to deal with, Cardan Greenbriar could never have imagined that having a scary bodyguard and a breathtaking girl would make him even more out of his mind.
None of them were prepared for what was to come.
The synopsis is terrible, but give me a chance.

Summary
“I have a proposition for you,” Cardan says, soundlessly swooping in behind Jude's back. As if having appeared from thin air. She can picture it in her head, without looking at him; how he would have that amused, mischievous glint in his eye that would dance in the moonlight, how his cheeks would be painted carefully with ridiculous amounts of gold shimmer, how he would be smiling that wicked mouth of his. The girl shivered—there were not enough words in the world to describe how intensely she hated Cardan Greenbriar.
“Go away, Cardan.” She said, so tired her voice came out flat, toneless.
“Oh? I think you’ll quite like what I have to offer,” he says easily, moving to sit beside her on the river bank, unbothered by the dirt. He lazily twirled his goblet and looked into the star spattered ashen-grey sky wistfully. “Marry me.”
When Jude get's herself into a scandal she can not claw herself out of, not this time, she is given a proposition by Cardan - her enemy. To marry him and become royalty. So rather foolishly, she accepts.

A Revolutionary Walks into a Fairy Court… by FoamyYourLordAndMaster

Summary
Fyodor Edinstvo, a ruthless former Soviet informant and self-proclaimed purveyor of suffering, is executed in 1952. But instead of finding oblivion, he awakens in the twisted, beautiful world of Elfhame—a realm ruled by capricious faeries, ancient politics, and glamours more dangerous than bullets.
And then there’s the matter of his black blood.
And the way his wounds heal without aid.
Or the tar-black phantoms—twisted echoes of Soviet soldiers—who rise from the earth to obey him, still saluting their long-dead commander.
Fyodor isn’t sure what he is anymore. A weapon? A curse? A relic dragged back from the grave?
Disoriented but not broken, Fyodor is soon entangled in the affairs of Queen Jude Duarte, a mortal who clawed her way to the throne with blood and steel. Though steeped in magic and myth, Elfhame proves no less treacherous than the USSR—just more honest in its deceit.
As Fyodor grapples with the memories of a brutal past and the mysterious force keeping him alive, he finds himself torn between his old gospel of universal suffering and the haunting ghost of his younger brother’s idealism.

Summary
”Just as a flower does not choose its color, we are not responsible for what we have come to be.
Only once you realize this do you become free.”
(Stoker, 2013)

Insmire Hall is the most valuable asset of the Greenbriar family. Old and eccentric. Equal parts magnificent as it is haunting. Here the walls seem to whisper and the doors have a will of their own. No matter the summer heat, inside it’s always cold.
or
a little something for the fans of Crimson Peak, Corpse Bride, and the overall macabre.

Summary
Have you ever felt drawn to the lasting untold tales in the perspective of the High King? Well, congratulations, you have been wrapped into a journey where—if you beg adequately for it, you shall receive as Cardan Greenbriar is many things but not a fae to starve one's curiosity.
(In which I do my best to embody Cardan’s pov during the whole trilogy including offscreen moments i. e. TwK 6 months timeskip & QoN scenes with some non canon details or perceptions <3)

Summary
When a wall of fog burst through the doors of the palace, Cardan lifted his head, intrigued. He couldn’t remember the last time he had been intrigued.
Through the fog a hunched shadow appeared, slowly revealing a woman who must have been one hundred years old. And she looked it, Cardan thought, a sneer fixing itself on his face.
She was carrying in her arms a glass dome. Inside was a floating, perfectly preserved rose, more stunning than even the ones in the royal garden. It had a faint glowing quality, and the glass itself was etched in winding gold vines, encasing the rose in its glory.
“An offering, my king.”

When Oak’s after-school-misadventures lead to him being held prisoner in an enchanted castle, Jude finds she must barter her own freedom to save her brother’s.

Summary
Of course I want to be like them. They’re beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.

Osamu Dazai is a mortal living in a world of faeries. Where he realises that to survive they need to be as cunning and deceitful as the fey themselves. But the stairway to power is filled with shadows and betrayal. And looming over all is the arrogant and charismatic Prince Chuuya.
