Summary
It was only a matter of time before Lucien found out about Elain and Azriel’s increasingly reckless trysts. Although none of the three of them have any interest in telling anyone else what Lucien witnesses one day at the river house, word in the Night Court travels fast, and soon their mess turns into official court business. With the unrequited mating bond threatening both Lucien and Elain’s sanity at a time when Lucien’s political alliances are central to keeping the peace in Prythian, it becomes clear that some sort of agreement will have to be made.
-ˋˏ𓆩❀☼❀𓆪ˎˊ-
Or: It’s the Elrielucien threeway(s) we all deserve but I bend over backward writing some political intrigue and making some wild reaches about mating bond theory for sex reasons. (The smut begins at the halfway point of chapter 2, for the impatient among us).

Summary
“The Cauldron chose three sisters. Tell me how it’s possible that my two brothers are with two of those sisters and yet the third was given to another.”
Rhys’s face drained of color. “You believe she should be your mate?”
Azriel snarled. “Who else?”
It is well known across Prythian that High Fae mating bonds are a rare and sacred union between two souls. Lesser fae mating bonds, more common yet less studied than their High Fae counterparts, are bound by an entirely different set of rules.After the ball in the Hewn City, Nesta and Cassian swore to each other that there would be no one else. Ever. They didn't account for Azriel.
