Meet Me in the Middle of the Mess by OurLadyofDeath

Summary
Nesta’s first holiday without her kids ends in a one-night stand (sure, Jan) with the hottest man she’s ever seen.
She expects it to be a one-off. Hopes for it.
She does not need this kind of distraction.Except he keeps showing up everywhere - the grocery store, the laundromat, her favorite coffee shop - and suddenly she’s playing competitive Pretty Pretty Princess, learning to change a tire, and watching this man charm her twins like the easiest thing in the world.
Nesta has rules.
Cassian has muscles.
It’s not a fair fight.A soft, chaotic attempt at a rom-com about accidental connection, (un)intentional love, and the slow, delicious unraveling of two people into each other.

Summary
Nesta and Cassian dated years ago. Their relationship was passionate in the best and worst of ways, causing them to split just short of a few months together. Ever since, they’ve fallen into a pattern of communicating physically; a true definition of hot-and-cold if there ever was such a thing. They have made attempts to move on, to be with other people, but something has always pulled them right back to each other.
Their insistence on each other created quite the toxic dynamic for themselves and the important people in their lives, dismantling relationships and creating secrets that never needed to be. They’re a complete mess, both together and as individuals, but the thought of being without the other seemed impossible.
This au follows their sordid affair and their individual healing. Hopefully, it’s not all a day late and a dollar short.This is a Nessian toxic relationship au inspired by the song "Is There Somewhere" by Halsey. (Lyrics in the Notes at the end in case you haven't heard it)
Warnings for strong language, toxic relationship dynamics, mentions of infidelity, drug use, alcohol use, and sexual content. NSFW.

Summary
Nesta had been angry for a very long time. She wasn’t even sure when the anger began, it felt as if it were just always a part of her. It kept her safe, it protected her from the criticism from her mother and dance coach, Miss Amarantha. Their harsh words about her body as she matured and grew, the insults about her lack of effort and will whenever she mis-stepped, how nothing she ever did seemed to be enough. Even after her mother passed, Nesta allowed her dance coach to continue her vicious training regime, remaining silent as the hurled insults and threats increased tenfold.
Another seven years have passed, Nesta was now in her second year of the Velaris University’s Juris Doctor program. With both parents now gone, Nesta knows she should be a good eldest sister and try to keep the family together. She’s already agreed to a weekly dinner with them, often inviting friends too. But now Feyre and her boyfriend are getting serious and she’s trying to integrate her sisters with Rhysand’s brothers. One of those brothers has a knack for getting on Nesta’s nerves, ruining any hopes she had of trying to have as little stress and piss-poor habits as possible in her second year of law school.

Summary
Nesta Archeron has always prided herself on being the kind of woman who has her life together. She wears power suits to her editing job at Velaris Publishing, her hair is always immaculately styled, her apartment has been featured in a “Young Professionals Living in Style” blog post, and she’s been in a relationship with Tomas Mandray—successful lawyer, conventionally attractive, wholly appropriate—for three years.
Past tense on all of that.
Because yesterday, she’d come home early from a work trip to surprise Tomas, only to find him very enthusiastically not surprised, and very enthusiastically occupied with his paralegal, Claire, in their California King bed with the Egyptian cotton sheets Nesta had picked out.
The bed that Tomas had paid for, in the apartment that Tomas’s name was on the lease for, because Nesta had moved in with him eight months ago, instead of looking for a new place together.
What a joke.

A New Girl AU where Nesta is Jess, Cassian is Nick, and no one is emotionally equipped to handle what's happening. That’s it. That’s the summary.

Summary
England - May, 1944
“Your husband doesn't write you.”
Nesta didn't look up from where she was primly folding one of his men's uniforms.
“Well, Captain, he is fighting a war.”
Cassian frowned, knowing full well the men in his Company wrote every chance they could, anxious to hear from their wives, to be reminded what it was all for. Her words were an excuse. A deflection from a lovelessness that cracked his heart in two.
“I don't suppose you would let me?” He asked.
"Let you what?"
“Write you, sweetheart.”
--
While training for the Allies' invasion Europe, Captain Cassian Garcia of the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment meets the mysterious Nesta Mandray and finds a light in the darkness. Beautiful, if not burdened by some deep sadness, he finds he cannot stay away, even with the ring around her finger.
When Nesta Mandray meets the bold, yet inexplicably handsome American Officer lodging next door, her dream of escape from a loveless marriage becomes increasingly hard to ignore. But a life scarred makes for a woman cautious, and it will take more than brief conversations over clean linens to convince her to take a leap of faith.

Summary
No seu primeiro inverno vivendo no chalé, Feyre sai para caçar pela primeira vez e se perde em uma tempestade de neve. Incapaz de voltar para casa, ela se cria na floresta, isolada e desamparada, se tornando algo selvagem para a qual Prythian não estava preparada.

Summary
“Archeron,” he says, when he’s close enough to count each individual hair in the fan of dark lashes. She goes still in that particular, feline way, gaze lifting to his like it’s unspooling from a reel. The slow recognition in her eyes does something ugly and sweet to him.
“Hello Cassian,” she says, dry.
“You look—” He stops. Beautiful is a word that feels to intimate. Too much like everything they’re not. “—like you’re on the hunt.”
“I could say the same about you.” Her mouth tips.
The music makes the floor vibrate under his boots. He’s aware of his hand—of the ring. Of his entire body thrumming. “Can I buy your next one?”
“You can,” she says, considering him over the rim of her glass, “but I may refuse to drink it.”
“Sounds a bit bratty, Nesta.”
She hums. “What ever will you do about that?”
____
When Cassian lets his family convince him that Nesta isn’t the right woman for him, he marries his safe choice. But cutting Nesta out of his life proves more difficult than he thought.
Nesta promised herself she’d never become that woman. But letting go of the love of her life appears to be impossible. Until she meets someone with auburn hair and amber eyes.

Summary
“Ok then how about a friendly challenge. If I win you tell me your name.” He turned that boyish smile back up at her. Even sitting down he came up to her stomach. A man that large should not be able to smile like a schoolboy sneaking out of lessons to pull at a shop girls braids.
“And what could you possibly have that I would want.” Despite herself and the many chores that she would still need to tend to once the laundry was wash Nesta took the seat across from him.
“I’ll give you my name.”
Running a single finger over the king carved from a darker wood then his pieces Nesta admired the craftmanship. Wondered if he had killed the sets previous owner. “Pass.”

Instead of being trapped in Velaris for the last 50 years Cassian was in the human lands when Amarantha struck. Leaving him stranded below the wall. To survive he takes up work as a mercenary and meets an angry/interesting human woman. -

Summary
When Nesta learns that her father has lost her sisters inheritance, she has few choices left. There was no knight in shining armor to save them, or any relatives willing to take them in. The only thing a woman has left is her body, and if she is doomed to be a fallen woman, she can at least choose who's mistress she'll be.
Cassian McKay has made it perfectly clear he will never take a wife. It makes him completely unsuitable as a husband, in addition to being rude, scottish, and incapable of carrying on a polite conversation.
Good thing Nesta isn't looking for one. If he's willing to save her sisters, she'll agree to anything... including being his.

Summary
“Nesta turned, but she was too slow. Clawed fingers clamped around her wrist — too strong, too fast. She gasped, wrenching against the hold, but her captor only yanked her closer. The touch burned, not in pain, but in sheer unnatural warmth, as if the creature holding her radiated heat like a furnace.
Eyes like molten gold burned into hers, his face half-hidden in shadow. Horns curled back from tangled black hair, and behind him, massive wings loomed, shifting as if bracing for flight. He was taller than any man she had ever seen, broader, wilder, his presence drowning out everything else. She had seen him in her dreams.”
___________
Bound by their pasts, haunted by their mistakes, and tested by the darkness that surrounds them, Nesta, fleeing her suffocating life in the village, and Cassian, a cursed lord in a crumbling fortress, must decide if they can heal the wounds of their pasts and find redemption in each other, or if their connection will be the final thing to tear them apart forever.

Summary
“Can I come in?” He asked, the ghost of a smirk twisting the corners of his lips slightly upward. Gods, she wanted to throttle the arrogance out of his beautiful face.
“I’m naked.” She frowned, pressing the door shut with full intentions of it hitting his big, dumb nose. A strong hand gently pushed it back.
“All the more reason.”
— — —
Cassian is ordered by Feyre to check on Nesta everyday, to make sure she's breathing and eating and getting sunshine on her skin. Perhaps an even harder task than that—he's ordered to bring her to the townhouse once a week for a weekly dinner.
OR- what if Nesta's trauma wasn't left to fester for so long?
In which Nesta learns how to breathe again, and Cassian learns how to love.
