Classy Grishaverse smut fics! One for Inej & Kaz, one for Nina & Hanne, and the last for Zoya & Nikolai!
Today, NINA & HANNE has been posted! Enjoy!
Best of Zoyalai in King of Scars
“Now tell me I’ll find a way out of this. Tell me it will be all right.”
“Everything will be alright. We’ll solve this problem as we’ve solved all the others before. Do you believe me?”
“Yes.” Chap. 2, p. 28
“He’d never quite managed to make himself immune to her beauty, and he was glad his arms were chained to the bed or he might have been tempted to reach for her.” Chap. 6, p. 102
“They did not look to each other for comfort. They kept each other marching. They kept each other strong.” Chap. 6, p. 104
“Though Zoya might well have agreed with the priest, she still wanted to see his filthy robes and shake him until he recognized he was talking to his king and not some supplicant. Not that she was particularly compliant when it came to Nikolai, but it was the principle of the thing.” Chap. 7, p. 120
“He’d almost murdered one of his most valued generals, one of his only true friends, the person who had helped him to steer this cursed ship of a country for two years, who had kept his secrets and who be had trusted to do so without question. He had almost killed Zoya.” Chap. 9, p. 144
“He would try to be better. And the woman before him would make sure he protected Ravka. [...] He took her hand, pressed a kiss to her knuckles. “My ruthless Zoya, I’ll load the gun myself.”” Chap. 12, p. 218
“He would have someone else to tease and lean on and argue over herring with. She’s made men fall in love with her before. [...] Zoya did not desire; she was desired. And that was the way she liked it. It was galling to admit that she wasn’t at all sure she could make Nikolai want her, and more galling to think that a part of her longed to try, to know if he was as impervious to her beauty as he seemed, to know if someone like him, full of hope and light and optimistic endeavor, could love someone like her. Chap. 14, p. 243
“I remember, Zoya, and I promise I won’t let the world forget. But I need you to come back to me. I need my general beside me now.” Chap. 14, p. 250
“Zoya, say something spiteful.”
“Why?” she asked faintly.
“Because I’m fairly certain I’m hallucinating, and in my dreams you’re much nicer.”
“You’re an idiot, Nikolai.”
“Not your best work.”
“I’m sorry I can’t deliver better wordplay right now. I seem to be paralyzed with fear.” Chap. 15, p. 258
“Don’t tell me you’d miss me.”
“I suppose the world would be less interesting without you in it. I wouldn’t let myself be drowned in amber for just anyone, you know.”
“I’m touched,” he said. And he was. It was the closest thing to a compliment she’d ever given him. Chap. 27, p. 411
“In that moment, he wished things might have been different. That he might not die tomorrow. That he could be led by his heart instead of duty.
Because Zoya was not kind and she was not easy.
But she was already a queen.” Chap. 27, p. 415
“You have the order? If the monster takes me-“
“I know what to do.”
“You needn’t sound quite so eager.”
To his surprise, Zoya seized his hand. “Come back. Promise you’ll come back to us.”
“Of course I’ll come back. I don’t trust anyone else to deliver my eulogy.” Chap. 30, p. 440
“My king lies bleeding. I am his subject and his soldier, and I come to fight for him.” Chap. 34, p. 475
Best of Zoyalai in “Rule of Wolves”
She’d tied back her black hair with a dark blue ribbon. It was eminently practical, but it had the unfortunate effect of making him want to untie it. Chap. 3, p. 29
“Be charming,” he warned her under his breath.
She flashed him of warm smile and a wink. “I will.”
“That was very convincing.”
The smile vanished in an instant. “I’ve had to watch you smarm all over Ravka for years, I’ve learned a few tricks.” Chap. 3, p. 35
“Your heart is in your eyes, Your Highness.” Chap. 8, p. 99 (Tamar to Nikolai when he looked at Zoya)
Her presence brought a perfectly understandable relief, a feeling of calm that came with knowing that whatever the problem was, they would best it, that if one of them faltered, the other would be there to drag them along. Chap. 8, p. 99
“Don’t go.”
[...] “I’m not going anywhere.” Chap. 9, p. 111
“You smell like wildflowers. You always do. What can I say to make you stay?” His words trailed off into a drowsy mumble as he fell back asleep.
She brushed the hair back from his face, placed to kiss on his forehead. “I would stay forever if I could.” Chap. 9, p. 112
“If you had [seen me at my worst], you’d be under the covers, gibbering prayers.”
“A unique way of getting me into bed, but who am I to question your methods?” Chap. 9, p. 118
“You are the king I’ve chosen.” Chap. 11, p. 145
“What if I told you the demon will always be with me? That there will always be a part of me tied to the Darkling to this shadow power? Would I still be your king. Or would you fear me? Would you despite me as you despise him?”
“You would still be my king. I know who you are.” Chap. 11, p. 146-7
Zoya should be here, he thought as he pinned a sprig of blue hyacinth to his lapel. Chap. 15, p. 207
“You should learn to speak Shu.”
“I was thinking of taking up Suli.” Chap. 15, p. 218 (I know he didn’t know then, but pls, leigh knew what she was doing here)
“I’m looking at you now, Zoya. You need never ask forgiveness of me.” Chap. 23, p. 315
“I wish you’d been there.”
“You do?”
“Of course I do. Who else would I rather have my back in a fight.” Chap. 23, p. 315
“[Thorn wood] is all prickles and spines and anger, covered in pretty, useless blossoms and fruit too bitter to eat. There is nothing in it worth loving.
“How wrong you are.”
“Am I?”
“Look at the way it grows, protecting everything within these walls, stronger than anything else in the garden, weathering every season. No matter the winter it endures, it blooms again and again.” Chap. 23, p. 316
“You gave Ravka a chance. You gave me a country to fight for. I’ll always be grateful for that.” Chap. 27, p. 360
“Then we will build that future together.”
“Together.” Chap. 27, p. 363
“But I can see you have plenty to distract you these days.”
He could have meant the war. He could have meant any number of things, but the slight quirk of Kaz’s brow made Nikolai feel as if he was standing naked on the Stave with his heart’s desires tattooed in capital letters on his chest. Chap. 27, p. 364
All Saints, Nikolai thought. I’m lying next to Zoya Nazyalensky. Chap. 31, p. 318
“I would choose you.”
“As your general?”
“As my queen.”
“Because I’m a dependable soldier. [...] Because I know all your secrets.”
[...] “I would make you my queen because I want you. I want you all the time. [...] I would give you a crown if I could. I would show you the world from the prow of a ship. I would choose you, Zoya. As my general, as my friend, as my bride. I would give you a sapphire the size of an acorn. And all I would ask in return is that you wear this damnable ribbon in your hair on our wedding day.” Chap. 31, p. 421-3
“I will kneel to only one ruler, and I will see only one person crowned this day. The age of Lantsovs is over. Let the Nazyalensky dynasty begin. All hail the Dragon Queen.” Chap. 45, p. 540
“There’s a mural in my room. A stormy sea. A boat. A flag with two stars. Did you ever wonder—“
“What they mean? Only when I thought of your bedchamber. So, roughly every night.”
“Can you be serious for once?”
“Once and only once.” Chap. 46, p. 550
“We would go on, you and die. If I couldn’t be queen, you would find a way to win this battle and save this country. You would make a sheltering place for my people. You would march and bleed and crack terrible jokes until you had done all you said you would do. I suppose that’s why I love you.”
His eyes flew open and his face lit in an extraordinary grin. “All Saints, say it again.”
“I will not.”
“You must.”
“I’m the queen. I must do nothing but please myself.”
“Would it please you to kiss me?”
It would. Chap. 46, p. 551
He wanted her for so long that it seemed impossible he should actually have her beside him every day, that he might lay down beside her every night. Not impossible, he supposed. Just improbable. Chap. 48, p. 566
“Zoya will live a very long time. Despite the demon, you may not do the same.”
“Then I will love her from my grave.” Chap. 48, p. 573
“I need Sturmhond to take a message to Ketterdam for me.”
“I hear he’s very busy these days.”
“I think he’ll appreciate the reward.”
“If it involves you out of that dress, I have no doubt I can convince him.” Chap. 49, p. 587
“And all i would ask in return is that you wear this damnable ribbon in your hair on our wedding day.”

“I WOULD MAKE YOU MY QUEEN BECAUSE I WANT YOU. I WANT YOU ALL THE TIME.”
“AS YOUR GENERAL, I SHOULD TELL YOU THAT WOULD BE A TERRIBLE DECISION.”
“AS YOUR KING, I SHOULD TELL YOU THAT NO ONE COULD DISSUADE ME. NO PRINCE AND NO POWER COULD MAKE ME STOP WANTING YOU.”
“I suppose that's why I love you.”
His eyes flew open and his face lit in an extraordinary grin. "All Saints, say it again."
"I will not."
"You must."
"I'm the queen. I must do nothing but please myself."
"Would it please you to kiss me?”
Tal vez mis expectativas hacia el amor eran demasiado grandes.
Tengo la sensación de estar cayendo.

Tu cabello, tus ojos, tu boca, la manera en la que sonríes, el sonido de tu risa, cuando miras fijamente, tus cejas, tus manos, tus dedos, tus fuertes brazos, tus bromas, tus pendejadas, tu sentido del humor, tu mal genio, tus virtudes y tus defectos.
Ven, duerme a mi lado.
(via juandapi)
Cuando dices cosas como esas. Cuando sonríes así. Cuando me miras así. Cuando me quedo observándote por un largo tiempo me doy cuenta en lo que he caído y en lo difícil que va ser para mi dejar de pensarte.
